This is from the Detroit Pistons Official Website regarding Ben Wallace:
"The 14-year NBA veteran became the 17th player in NBA history to record 2,000 career blocks [at New Jersey (2/2/10)]. At 6-foot-9, he is the shortest player in league history to reach the 2,000-block plateau. Wallace also recorded his 1,200th career steal [at Phoenix (11/22/09)] to become one of only four players (Hakeem Olajuwon, Robert Parish, David Robinson) in NBA history to record 2,000 career blocks and 1,200career steals."
Olajuwon, Parish and Robinson? That's some pretty elite company. Just another reason to be glad he's back in a Pistons uni for a couple of more years. And another reason to watch the Pistons this year. Can Big Ben bring the heart and hustle again?
Come on, you know he will.
