Please note that FG% down from .482 to .455 in playoffs, Rebounds down, Assists down, Steals down, Points down and Fouls up.

Care to revise your statement above????
No. His numbers from regular season to playoffs are virtually identical, outside of field goal percentage, which can be entirely attributed to playing tougher defenses in the playoffs.

The claim that he "didn't raise his game which prevented Portland from achieving great glory" is pretty clearly bunk. When Portland had its best teams, Wallace came up big in the playoffs. He was a monster in the 2000 and 2001 playoffs.
