Rasheed might go Buck wild tonight
Article talking about the mismatch Rasheed creates, especially with Rip's ankle condition, he should explode
Quote:
Wallace, the Pistons' starting power forward, has been on the verge of putting together a big-time offensive showing. We've seen it sprinkled in every so often, when Wallace puts this team on his back and takes it to where it wants to go.
In this case, it's the second round of the NBA playoffs and a date with either Washington or Cleveland.
Honestly, there's no one on the Bucks who can stop Wallace.
Huge advantage
When you look up "mismatch" in the dictionary, there's a picture of Wallace and Bucks power forward Andrew Bogut, a poor rookie, no less.
"We have to get him the ball," point guard Chauncey Billups said. "He presents a matchup problem for them. No one can guard him."
...............
The Pistons could do the same thing with Wallace against Bogut. And with Rip Hamilton still trying to find his shot -- his ankle injury has definitely slowed him down -- this is the perfect situation for Wallace, who is averaging 16 points in the series, to put on an over-the-top performance."
