Thought I’d mention, apologies if already brought up. I was listening to the latest Bill Simmons podcast, which had an interview with the producer of the new Bulls/MJ documentary. Towards the end of the interview, the producer said one of Bill’s favorite bands makes a surprise appearance at the very end of episode 10. 
I would guess this is Pearl Jam performing Black, Red, and Yellow.

    Maybe Ed in the lockerroom?  

    I know Ed sang the national anthem at the Finals two years earlier.

    James Edwards has to be like 70 yrs old today.  The 96 Bulls had NBA players from the damn mid 70s on them.  Hilarious.

    Ha.  He liked Pearl Jam.  That is probably the 70th most interesting thing they could talk about Dennis on this program.

    Mullin recalls the night in the early 1990s, when he was with the Warriors and Rodman was with the Spurs, that resulted in a brief but memorable car ride.

    Hanging around the home locker room at the Oakland Arena, Rodman asked Mullin if he could hitch a ride to the team hotel, the Oakland Airport Hilton. No problem, according to Mullin, who lived in Alameda at the time.

    One more thing. Rodman wondered if it was OK for a couple of his “buddies” to ride along. Just hang on, Mullin until I’m ready to leave.

    “I had young kids then, so I had to move a couple car seats,” Mullin recalls. “No big deal. So, all these little white guys pile into my car. I’m like, whatever. It’s a five-minute ride. I was going to Alameda, so it was a short ride.

    "Later, on, I find out it was Pearl Jam. At the time, they were called Mookie Blaylock. It was that group. They were (Rodman’s) boys back then.

    Some years later, shortly after Mullin retired, he got a call from Brent Barry, who was playing for the SuperSonics. Barry had become friends with Pearl Jam, which originated in Seattle as Mookie Blaylock, with 5-foot-7 Eddie Vedder as the lead singer.

    “Brent says he with Eddie Vedder,” Mullin says. “I said, ‘Dude, ask him if I ever gave him a ride back to the hotel' [Vedder] said, ‘Yeah, that was us.’

    “But that’s Dennis. That’s how he is. He was just a regular dude. And still is.”

    Cool story, but I think Mullin is a little confused on the timing.  Rodman wasn't on the Spurs until 1993 and they didn't play at Golden State until January 1994... so he wasn't in the car with Mookie Blaylock.  But still cool.
