4. Rasheed Wallace (18.2 p/40, 7.7 r/40, 2.6 a/40) -- Only because somebody will offer him the max (emphasis added), and he's proven that he wants to be one of the guys rather than The Man. You can get "one of the guys" for half this price -- and a better behaved guy at that. Just because_Wallace played nice in the final four months of his contract doesn't override the fact that he was a_giant hemorrhoid for the preceding_eight years.

Just had to throw this one out there from the "overhyped" category, in hopes of dumping gasoline on the raging inferno that is the bbb.net debate over whether Wallace is a complete knucklehead, the devil incarnate, or the Second Coming. The Max? I don't know about that.
PS: Bear in mind that this listing was written by former Oregonlive.com Blazer writer, John Hollinger... those who believe the "Portland media had it in for Wallace from the beginning" may discount Hollinger's opinion as a member (albeit departed) of that club. I liked John's stuff, so I wouldn't go that far... one thing, though, John - where's that cheap place to eat in Switzerland?
Interesting read on FA's from SI.com
