What did I tell you!/NBA Part Deuce

Ben Wallace, in his first game with the Cavs: 12 points and 10 rebounds. This from a guy averaging 5.2 and 8.8 up to that point. Whaaaaah, I'm on a "contender" now! Whaaaaah, now I'm happy! More gee dee cryin' than when I don't take my afternoon nap. According to LeBron, Wallace was "rejuvenated". Give me a break. I guess anybody could get his mojo back playin' the Grizzlewizzles. Listen, chief, you're makin'  $15. 5 mil after having gone to Virginia Frickin' Union. Suck it up.

There is a situation brewing. On the horizon is the quintessential tank-job revealed. Case in point: Ben Wallace has just been traded to the Cavs. Here is a brief look at his stats from this year. A word of caution, these numbers are vomit inducing considering that his salary this year is $15, 500, 000.

FG %: .373 (Uggggh, I'm feelin' queasy.) Rebs: 8.8 (Bluuuurp. This from a guy who literally is supposed to do two things: 1. rebound and 2. block shots) Blocks: 1.60 (Bleeeeearrrrrrrrrrgh.) Pts. 5.1 (Uhh. Uhhh. Ok. I'm alright.)

Now. Let me wipe the puke from the bib. If these numbers should miraculously increase now that he is on a "contender," we will have seen a tank-job of Mark Blount-esque proportions. By the way. Has there been a more overrated player over the last five years than Ben Wallace? Dennis Rodman's stats over a career, for comparison: FG% .521, FT% .584, Rebs: 13.1. 

Peace!
