Kemba Walker is listed as 6'1 but he admits that he's actually around 5'10, the reason being basketball is game that generally favors height and therefore the perception of teams looking to draft him would be that he might be too short to play. Kevin Garnet and Kevin Durant are on the opposite side of the fence, KDs height has actually shrunk over the years being listed originally at 6'10 and is now listed at 6'9 even tho most players agree he's at least 7 ft, his reason maybe similar to KGs. KG was listed at 6'11 but admits he's actually 7'1 and he made himself shorter to dissuade coaches from playing him at center which he thought wouldn't allow him to utilize his skill set the right way, KD is really skinny so maybe he lies about his height so he doesn't have match up against 7 ft tall 245 lbs PFs

    I was lucky enough to be in Michigan watching this dude almost every game. His defensive stats were great but you can't quantify how he took over a game with defense. The only other player I can think of is Junior Seau - a football player. He would run the game like a quarter back as a line backer. That's how Ben was. He was insanely athletic and driven and good. I named my son after big Ben. True story ✌️

      Ben Wallace was unpressidented (like spelling this word)or whatever. You didn't see two final appearances and defense trophies all star appearances. Everybody wearing afros. He was traded for Grant Hill. He was suppose to be expendable. An unknown variable. Look what he turned into a hero for underdogs, exciting for people who believed shocking to all the have-lots. Pooping there perfect bubble. Like katniss in the hunger games. No!! Pay attention to the guy you threw away. Your crumpled napkin you know is not used but you'll just get another.

    Ben Wallace should be a hall of famer NO DEBATE. Defensive players never gets the respect they deserve in the NBA unless they're 2-way players that could also drop 20+. Key example, media didn't care much for Kawhi (even after his 1st finals MVP) until he started doing big numbers on offense.
