Carmelo Anthony shared his thoughts on the decision of Dennis Rodman to temporarily leave the Chicago Bulls and go for vacation in 1998.

The forward of the Portland Trail Blazers said he understands Rodman’s mindset and why he made such a move.

“In basketball, playing an 82-game season. There comes a point where it’s like … I’m not mad at Dennis. They allowed him to do it. And also, MJ knew his personnel,” Anthony told retired New York Giants defensive end Michael Strahan, via Bleacher Report.
