NBA Power Rankings: Ron Artest, Dennis Rodman and the 10 Craziest Hair-Do's
With the NBA playoffs right around the corner, there is no better time to unleash power rankings.
In the “biz” we like to call this time power rankings season, and the door is open to anyone ranking anything.
It’s pretty much like throwing a raw steak into a kiddie pool filled with tiger sharks; people eat it up like candy!
With that in mind here is a power ranking of the 10 craziest hair-do’s on the hardwood:
10. Ben Wallace
1 of 10
The craziest thing about Big Ben’s hair was the power that it possessed.
I swear every time that he had the fro up he had a stellar game. The days he went with braids he was just an undersized center with good work ethic. I’m telling you that thing’s got game!
Fear the Fro!
9. Andrei Kirilenko
2 of 10
Somebody needs to inform Andrei Kirilenko that he is playing in the NBA.
He seems to be under the impression that he’s going to be thrown into a ring with Rocky Balboa at a moment’s notice.
8. Baron Davis
3 of 10
Baron Davis makes this list purely because of his beard. Sure, I know that it’s a hair-do list but honestly I can’t pass up on the beard, and I’m the one in charge here, so to the beard we go!
Honestly, I can’t tell if Davis is auditioning for Castaway 2 or one of those Geico commercials.
I’m surprised he hasn’t gotten arrested yet for “sneaking into the arena”.
I’ve heard that he uses old plastic shopping bags to carry his gear on the road.
Too far…?
7. Anderson Varejao
4 of 10
You know you might have a crazy hair-do when people start mistaking you for a character on a cartoon show.
Yeah, Anderson Varejao does have a wet mop for a hairpiece, and yes he does look incredibly similar to Side Show Bob.
I heard a rumor that during practice a few years ago, one of the custodians mistook him for a mop.
That’s called an upgrade folks.
6. Joakim Noah
5 of 10
I believe that this is a picture of when Lil’ John let his braids out, moved to France, and went on a two week bender with Charlie Sheen and David Stern.
Oh wait, it’s Joakim Noah!
My bad…
He’s Bi-Winning!
5. Chris Anderson
6 of 10
The birdman’s got himself a pretty wacky "do", but to be honest, out of all the people on this list, this seems to fit him quite nicely.
You have to be a very rare type of human being to actually pull off the full out Mohawk, so I have got to give this man his props.
You have to be an even rarer species to flap your arms like a bird as you run down the court every time you do something relevant in a game.
4. Scot Pollard
7 of 10
Good ole’ Scot Pollard may have been able to pull off the blonde mini-hawk, but then he felt that it was necessary to add a double pony goatee to complete the look.
He looks like he should be hardcore clubbing in some Northern European club.
3. Drew Gooden
8 of 10
I think that calling this hair-do from Drew Gooden crazy is somewhat of an understatement.
I would lean more towards repulsive, sickening and just plain disgusting.
Men with rat-tails think that Drew Gooden looks ridiculous.
2. Ron Artest
9 of 10
Ron Artest has been known to do a few crazy things during his career in the NBA.
His hair-do might rank lower on the crazy scale compared to playing street fighter in the Palace of Auburn Hill’s concourse level, but I could probably squeeze it in between making a rap album, and thanking his psychiatrist after the Finals.
1. Dennis Rodman
10 of 10
There is nobody that deserves to be on this list more than Dennis Rodman.
There has perhaps never been a more interesting character in the world of sports, and there has definitely never been anybody who can pull off the “do” like the worm.
He had his number retired by the Pistons last week and now he gets the top spot on this list!
Talk about the best week ever!
