ESPN's documentary series "The Last Dance" aired episodes 3 and 4 on Sunday, and they focused on the rise of the Chicago Bulls from a struggling franchise to a power in the NBA's Eastern Conference.

For the Bulls, this meant clashing with the division rival and NBA champion Detroit Pistons. It also meant facing off with a future teammate in Dennis Rodman. The episodes detailed the ups and downs of Rodman, including his rebounding genius, defensive ability and activities away from basketball.

NBA players went to Twitter to highlight their appreciation for Rodman's game and his antics, including a story about the time Michael Jordan had to retrieve "The Worm" from Las Vegas.

Many watching, including actress Gabrielle Union and Houston Texans superstar J.J. Watt, couldn't help but comment on Rodman's viewpoint on "load management" and how Phil Jackson dealt with it.

I love that Phil Jackson didnt try to crush Rodman's spirit. #TheLastDance

One of the most recognizable people ever, from one of the greatest dynasties ever, was just walking around and partying in Las Vegas for 48 hours in the middle of the NBA season while they were trying to win their 6th title?!

What a time to be alive.

Imagine that today.

Carmen Electra recalled an interesting encounter with Rodman when Michael Jordan came to check on his power forward.

"There's a knock on the door and it's Michael Jordan, and I hid..." ?? Anyone ever said that?#TheLastDance

Nothing like a good Mid Season Vegas Bender with Carmen Electra to get the mind right

The Vegas story on Rodman shows how different Phil's thought process was as a coach. #TheLastDance Phil knew Worm was wired differently!!!

Clearly, Andre Iguodala doesn't quite believe Electra's story.

She lying... she wasn't there...hidin... none of that. Lies!
