A list of puns related to "Rasheed Wallace"
>I interviewed Rasheed in 2017, asked about the '17 warriors. He said his pistons would "run through them. not even close" & would beat them in a 7 game series.
>His team might have done a good job defensively BUT this idea that the old era is forever paramount has to end.
Replying to this:
>Rasheed Wallace on how Kevin Durant would fare in his era:
>βI donβt think he woulda had too much success.β
>(Million Dollaz Worth of Game / Nov.β20)
Love Sheed but his comments LeBron and KD are way off.
What Current NBA Player reminds you of these Two Former NBA All-Star: Zach Randolph and Rasheed Wallace?
Zach Randolph: A 6'9 260 lbs Power Forward who averaged 16.6 points and 9.1 rebounds in 17 seasons in the NBA. Zbo has made 2 All-Stars in 2010 and 2013 and All-NBA in 2011.
Rasheed Wallace: A 6'11 230 lbs Power Forward/Center who played 17 seasons in the NBA and averaged 14.4 points, 6.7 rebounds and 1.3 blocks in his Career. Rasheed has 4 All-Stars in his Career.
Rasheed Wallace on Lebron playing in his era: " I don't think he would be as successful as he is now. It was a whole different era back then".
Hand checking only existed in Lebron's rookie year, In his rookie year Lebron averaged 21-6-6 on 48TS%.
Do you think Lebron would have been better or worse in the late 90's and early 2000's?
You could make a case he would be a bit worse with handchecking, You could also make a case he would be better since it was mostly 1 on 1 defense and Lebron would dominate.
Pic 3 >3 Fav players growing up..THANK YOU
Lol yup, makes sense
Bobby reflecting on his pre-game routine
>One of the wildest pre-game routines you will ever hear comes by Bobby Portis πβ£ β£ >"I sit in the locker room and I envision that the other player on the team slapped my mom. That's why I get mad, and now I've gotta get you because you slapped my mom."
Bobby: >I was immature and a kid then. The journey has made me grow up. Which is why I love this game so much.
We had a discussion a couple months ago about expanding the timeframe for this sub past 2000 (link), so we're trying this out. I'm all about us having some discussions about events, teams, and players from the first half of the 2000's (or really up through the '06 season for a few reasons discussed at the link above), but I don't want it to turn into simplistic, overly-discussed topics. Here is a list of all the early-2000's player discussions so far.
Here's a little info about the most notable early-2000's players with a birthday in mid/late-Sept:
Rasheed Wallace (career stats) - Sheed was a 4x All-Star ('01 & '02 w/Port, '06 & '08 w/Det) and a key piece to the '04 Pistons championship. He was an intense post player with an unconventional skill set (interior D and 3-pt shooting), known for his confrontations with opponents and referees that resulted in numerous technical fouls, suspensions, and fines. Despite all that, he was an incredibly smart & cerebral player who became a Pistons assistant coach a few months after retiring.
Chauncey Billups (career stats) - Billups is most well known for being the Finals MVP for the Pistons' 2004 championship run, but his statistical peak didn't occur until a few years later; his 5 ASG nods were from '06-10 and his inclusion on 3 All-NBA squads came during the same time period (2nd-team in '06, 3rd-team in '07 and '09). He was the epitome of a "better in the playoffs" PG: great defense, gritty, smart, head-strong, good shooter, and all-around clutch.
Could Rasheed Wallace make the Basketball Hall of Fame? Rasheed Wallace is a 6'11 230 lbs Power Forward who was a 2004 NBA Champion, 4x All-Star and a All-NBA Rookie 2nd Team. He has Career averages of 14.4 Points, 6.7 Rebounds, 1.8 Assists, 1 Steal and 1.3 Blocks on 46.7 FG%, 33.6 3PT% and 72.1 FT%. Also in College, He got his Jersey Number Retired and He was a 1995 Consensus 2nd Team All-American, 1995 1st Team All-ACC and 1994 ACC All-Freshman Team with College Career Averages of 13 points, 7.4 Rebounds and 2.3 Blocks on 63.5 FG%. In High School, He was 1993 Mr. Basketball USA, USA Today's HS POTY, 1993 McDonald's All-American and 2x 1st Team Parade All-American and in His Senior Year, He averaged 16 points, 15 rebounds and 7 Blocks.
Legend on r/NBA says that whenever Rasheed Wallace got a technical he'd become unstoppable. Is this true? Was Rasheed an above average player that became the GOAT PF whenever he got a technical? Just how good was this guy really??
"We had, rest in peace, Flip (Saunders) as our coach," Wallace recalled. "I was just letting the guys know I wasn't too keen on Flip and his coaching style. Some of the other guys in the locker room, they were cool with it, but I just let them know some of the things that were happening, for me that window was closing."
"And I felt as though we wasted three good years with him being the head coach than it would have been with Larry Brown," Wallace, then age 32, said.
Pistons center Rasheed Wallace, left, has a few comments with coach Flip Saunders, right, as he comes out of the game against the Wizards on Friday, Jan. 26, 2007, at the Palace. After some additional prodding from Le Batard and co-host, fellow former ESPN personality and former Phoenix Suns scout Amin Elhassan, Wallace provided a little more unfiltered version of his locker room "speech."
"It was a bunch of f-bombs and a bunch of m-f'ers and f-this and f-that, bull(expletive) and all the other cuss words you can think of," Wallace said. "My main emphasis was, I felt as though we were wasting our time, we were wasting these years with him, who, to me, wasn't a good coach.
"To win a championship, it takes more than just one or two All-Stars, you gotta have an All-Star coach. Your coach actually has to know X's and O's on what he's doing, and for me, personally, I just didn't think Flip had that."
"(Saunders" had success with some of those plays in Minnesota, playing with (Kevin Garnett), a lot of that 452 twist and 52 twist," Wallace said. "But that doesn't work for every team. And he thought that, with K.G. and I being the same somewhat type of player, that it could work for us. Nah, that (expletive) ain't work."
I'm gonna wait till the prices die down a little and if he has signed stuff for Elite, surely there will be more of his autos coming down the pipeline. Just thought you guys should know that Sheed has an NBA auto now!
Bonzi Wells is expected to get the HC job at Memphis HBCU Lemoyne-Owen College. He will join his Lets Get Technical podcast co-host Rasheed Wallace, who was announced as assistant coach at University of Memphis in the city.
Their first guest, incidentally (or maybe not) was, you guessed it, U of M Head Coach Penny Hardaway, about 3 months ago (broadcast May 28, 2021, so probably recorded some time before then): https://youtu.be/GdlBkth0MYA

Rasheed Wallace was so fun to watch in Detroit. I feel like he was ahead of his time, he had great post moves and could hit the three ball. Whoβs your all time favorite piston?
