I really got a kick out of hearing Rasheed Wallace say "Ball don't lie!" when an opponent would miss a free throw.😊!
Sheed had such a smooth and consistent jump shot. His turn-around jump shot was beauty. 2004 Finals Game 4.
You know his arch enemy referee got busted for fixing games. Sheed did not have an attitude. He just could smell BS.
That's why they punished him for it
@@haitianmaniac74 Yeah, he not just smelled BS but also yelled openly at it. And that was not allowed in Sternland
I miss sheed man he was one of my favorite players growing up just an animal
Rasheed Wallace for all yall youngins on here, was a tremendously skilled Power Forward, the way he played is how alot of these so called Power Forwards/Centers play the game today, he also played both ways, he could shoot, he had a face up game, post game, and he was a dog on defense, who gave you everything he had every game, took no plays off, and wanted to win no matter what, early 2000's he was easily the top 5 best power forward in the game.. Duncan, KG, Chris Webber, Sheed and Dirk.. Back when players took the game seriously, and not all this cupcake shit we got in the NBA today.. Great times in the early 2000's man
Well Said
He was ahead of his time for sure
Small Ball 5. He would be a great fit alongside Doncic in Dallas and at least have 8 time All Star for Modern NBA.
It's a shame people don't understand basketball, Giannas only can put his head down and go to the basket, Sheed can play both in and out. He can play with his back to the basket and shoot
He’s not and wouldn’t be better than Giannis tho
I don't say that he is better than Giannis. I still think that Giannis still can better than him
@@jin_jinius WAY better
Rasheed Wallace is what Christian would wishes he was
Wallace could've not only been top 5 but the best player in the entire league. That's how talented he was. He just didn't care.
I don't remember the exact year could of been 2005. I had the number 1 pick in my fantasy nba draft. My #1 pick was Rasheed Wallace. Everybody went crazy and laughed, but I dominated the league and won 🏆 🥇
Sheed was always a worker in all sorts of ways for the teams he's played on! seeing him with Detroit and beating the Lakers is easily my favorite memory of Sheed! Watching him play hard when he was with the Celtics playing against the Lakers in 10 was great to see a legend playing the last legitimate games before he went to 🤣 Knicks!
I watched a Knicks game from real close at MSG and I remember Sheed on the bench with his suit outfit down to his knees. Longest suit I ever seen lol
@@WilsonSy that's how sorry of a franchise the Knicks are lol the best memory of his time there was the suit he was wearing 😂
Even Sheed with the Blazers was a Beast
@@mettagoode7276 Very influential...Jail Blazers!
Sheed couldn’t realize his phenomenal talent because of his attitude. Never had Giannis abilities.
Laughable. Sheed was exponentially more skilled than Giannis currently is. Not even close.
@@juliusjones2487 Sheed never even averaged more than 20 even if he was holding back he would be in a mvp conversation like giannis
always one of my fave 4s of all time. thanks wilson for this content
Great video Wilson. You found great quotes and clips about, and of Sheed. Great editing. It's an awesome tribute to a legendary titan of NBA history. Keep grinding Wilson.
Great video! I'm a Pistons fan! That 04 team and the Pistons teams of the 2000's made my childhood great!
Sheed was born in Philly, Iggy started his career in Philly, #PhillyNation
Yesssir
Rasheed Wallace was one of my favorite players. Great video
Not a stretch. When he was in his prime he was top 5 hardest players to guard in the league.
facts people forget really fast about how good he was..but he got over looked because of techs and the league had alot of good big Man at the time. Young and old
Iggy pulled a Max Kellerman
😅😂
Multiple all star, nba champion
THEE REASON Detroit WON DA CHIP!! In Portland he would've WON, had they not have that melt down versus LAL
This comparison of these two players is perfect👏
I had an argument on another channel a few days ago about this. I felt like this was Iggy giving Sheed his flowers, but most people looked at it as hate towards Giannis. Sheed was definitely an all time talent but his mindset and play style, going back to both UNC and Simon Gratz, kept him from looking to "get his" more often. If it wasn't blasphemous to say that Sheed's talent was on par with KG and Duncan, which was a common narrative in those days, it ain't blasphemous to compare is talent to Giannis'; mind you, I'm talking talent, not game.
It’s just weird bro, you can give sheed his flowers he was incredible and underrated, but what was the point of bringing up giannis l, why did iggy feel the need to single him out why didn’t he bring up another modern player or just give him his flowers and leave it at that
@@elijahguerrero4913 during that "argument" someone told me that Iggy also one said that Middleton, not Giannis, was the most important player on the Bucks' team, so now I think it might've been both flowers and shade lol
@@WarrenF19 to me it feels like iggy is taking a shot at giannis, everyone knows Middleton isn’t as important as giannis & it also sends unnecessary hate towards sheed because anyone with common sense knows he isn’t giannis but sheed in his time was ode when Detroit traded for him that basically won them a chip in 04
Gannis against Boston the best defensive team in the league some say ...he took them to 7 games by himself dude hade 2 20 rebound triple doubles I think one was a 40pt game...lol Wallace better or equal? Absolutely not! Not even close he had a good game .he was never close to be a dominant player! Most top 75 would be dominant in any era mike magic shaq kolbe Wallace never had it in him but I guess we can pretend lol what a joke of a take
@@shannonpopowski3088 your take here is exactly what @Elijah Guerro meant "it sends unnecessary hate towards Sheed". You're here shitting on him like he made the take smh. While he wasn't the player Giannis is or will still become, don't get it twisted, he's an all time talent that probably chose not to play to his peak potential.
I remember watching Rasheed when he played for UNC him and Jerry Stackhouse were unbelievable!
My favorite PF ALL TIME
There’s no argument for him to be nearly as good as Giannis, I’m sorry but that’s ridiculous. Not just one year, but for a TEN YEAR STRETCH??? At some point game is game, and no lack of opportunity takes you from a fringe allstar to a perennial MVP candidate. That’s absurd
I’m pretty sure you Never watch Sheed in the Late 90s and Early 2000s live Games!! Because you would never have made this Comment!! Sheed was tough in His Era My Guy! The Higher ups Didn’t like him and therefore it was A narrative Created to keep him off the Floor Techs & Suspensions 🤦🏾♂️
Love him!!! The ball don't lie.
Love the video and Rasheed Wallace my favorite moment when he throw the towel in the hall way lolz
Sheed definitely one of the most underrated 4 for sure. Him and Zach Randolph were two of my favorite 4 to watch during that era. Them dudes were polished. Having had the opportunity to see them play they up there in my opinion but they probably misunderstood because of narratives. Giannis offensive arsenal is no where near sheed. Giannis is definitely going to have the better career
Totally Agree. Jermaine 0'neal is right up there too and he was schooled by Sheed. I like and agree with your take on Giannis
@@georgethompson8196 JO was 🥶
Sheed was my favorite player behind A.I. anybody who knows basketball from back then knows that means alot
That ball don't lie.. And neither does the big ticket. Sheed was the real deal
It's about time somebody started talking about this. The guy could play defense, and score literally anywhere on the court and for whatever reason he's never talked about
So disrespectful to giannis. Sheed wasnt that guy like giannis is. Giannis has received more criticism and hate in his still young career and overcame it all. Watch game 6. Dude scored 50, put his team on his back!
Sheed wasn't that guy cuz he didn't need to be
And Sheed would ABUSE, DESTROY & ANNIHILATE him! Sheed and Marcus Camby were the only guys that could legitimately D up Tim Duncan. If he could D up Duncan, he could straight fuck over Giannis. Period
@@juliusjones2487 So he could score 30+ pt average, 10+ reb average, 5+ assistis average, be a 2 time MVP and DPOY, 1 time champion as the boss with historical numbers? If then maybe he could be in the conversation. Until then Giannis could have Seed or anyone at that level as his little bitch.
Yes it's very disrespectful of the new NBA fans not understanding how great Sheed was. Ball don't lie, he's a better shooter and post up defender. Rasheed had to play against the best power forwards / centers of all time. You can't say this about Giannis.
Listen I take Giannis over Rasheed in any era simply because he won a title as "the guy" but Rasheed would easily be a top3-5 big in todays NBA.
@@bigpoppa6658 context is important. There’s no way Giannis would be able to go against Duncan on Monday, Garnett on Tuesday, C-Webb on Wednesday, Shaq on Thursday, Rodman on Friday, Jermaine O’Neal, on Saturday, and Dirk on Sunday. With the physicality of that era, he’d be a bench player at best. Sheed would DOMINATE today’s wide open lanes and matador defenses. 1 on 1 matchups would be no contest. If Sheed could D up Tim Duncan, Giannis would be a cakewalk. Vinnie Johnson from the Bad Boys would be a 30 point a game scorer in today’s NBA.
Loved Rasheed...never knew he didn't get props bc to me he was so obviously talented.
Sheed was my favorite player "ball don't lie" 🏆🎖️🏅🏀
I was he was doing more media today. He seems like a fun guy.
Andre Iguodala on the crack pipe heavily. Giannis is a champion, two time MVPS and DPOY. He's comparable to David Robinson or Shaq. Rasheed and Giannis don't belong in the same conversation no matter how much respect you have for Sheed.
Exactly, have everyone lost their minds? I am getting so angry reading comments agreeing with Iguodala
It was fun and wonderful watching Sheed play offense and defense. Making tough shots when the pistons needed a bucket or to get hyped up. This man was a true beast. He team play was the right fit for Detroit who strive for team play. He was highly skilled and unselfish. He wanted to win. The NBA talked him down because he argued with the refs and got technical calls. He knew it's was BS, for the fouls they gave him or his team. I loved when he got techs because then he would go off on them big-time making unreal well guarded buckets
Thanks so much for recognizing one of the best players to ever play the game. Fundamentally he was the soundest there was. His stats don't convey how great he was cuz he was all about team, something these young players know nothing about. Honestly if I was to start a team today obviously I would go Jordan first, but without a doubt or regret Sheed is my second and it's not even close. I'm so glad his peers acknowledged how great he was and honestly I believe Sheed should be in the Hall of Fame but that won't happen. Thanks for the memories Mr. Sheed Wallace!!!
"THEY WILL NOT WIN GAME 2"
- Sheed
The results: Pistons lead 69-67 with 20 seconds left, block by Prince. Pistons win!
@@WilsonSy yessir!!!! As a Detroit native Sheed has always been royalty to us ......his grit, work ethic and tough no nonsense demeanor matched the city perfectly !! Thanks for the great content bro! 💪🏾
"BOTH TEAMS PLAYED HARD"
My guy👏👏 He was a hard working player
Sheed would dominate today. Do a vid about Wilson chandler and the underrated players of the 2000’s -2010’s
He wouldn’t nigga
Chauncey, Rip, Prince, Big Ben, all of them were incredible in their own ways, but The Infamous Rasheed Wallace took that team and turned it into a titan. We don’t win the 04 title without him. We’re still Going To Work nearly two decades later.
Rasheed is my favorite NBA player! So happy he got a championship ring!
Defensively he was one of the best PFs with TD, Horry, Rodman and KG. Tremendous shot blocker and fundamentally flawless.
Offensively he had it all: left, right, more than decent handling for a big, post-up nightmare as he could fade or turnaround finishing with an extremely effective and sky high release jumper, shimmies and hooks, great leaper, excellent footwork, outside shooting. ALL.
He didn't rack big numbers just because he was a team first guy and his main task was not necessarily to score the ball. He always had guys alogside for that.
I.e. Hamilton stated that while he was the main scorer in that Piston team anytime they needed to generate a double team the play was to go to Sheed in the post.
And KG said Sheed was the toughest matchup for him throughout all his career. I mean...over TD, Malone....Guess that says it all.
"Ball don't lie!!!" -Rasheed Wallace.
Skillset wise, yes. Mentality, not even close to Giannis. JR Smith had all the tools, but not the mentality.
Well said. Same goes with Dion Waiters who's out the NBA
Rasheed Wallace his skill set, his heart 💓 i used to use him on my ps nba live and dunk with him he used to freeze my game
I watched sheed as a kid for my pistons, he could shoot the 3, post up, face the basket shoot over guys and played really good post defense. He's very underrated bc he was the 3rd option on the pistons. If he was a number 1 option he would be a 5 pf in today's game
He wasn't Detroit 3rd option. I'm from there. Detroit play strictly team ball. You didn't know who was gonna lit you up at any given time.
@@josephfisher6041 I'm from there as well. Everyone knows rip and Chauncey was the 1st and 2nd scoring options. Then came Rasheed and prince. I get what you saying tho
True, Rasheed would be unstoppable!!!
My favorite player of all time. Extremely skilled big man, who is locked in during big moments and games (at least in Detroit). I would love to see Sheed take a game-saving/winning shot any time. Sheed and KD are the most talented and complete players who are clutch in my humble opinion.
EXTREMELY SKILLED!!!! He was An Absolute MONSTER when locked in, as you mentioned. Don't sleep, in Portland he got busy as
well. You can tell the Truly Great Ones....by their PLAYOFFS PRODUCTION! Rasheed increased his number(S) Playoff times! He simply didn't care about "The Man" and was extremely unselfish, which in turn, hurt his Teams ability in Winning Thee Ultimate PRIZE! Would've WON B2B in Detroit, had he not blow the coverage by doubling down on Duncan, which led to Big Shot Bob being WIDE OPEN for the 3
As a Carolina fan from way back, I've known all the stuff they're talking about since November 1993.
Sheed
1. is on my all-time UNC team
2. would be remembered as a member of the greatest college team of all time if Donald Williams's season hadn't been wrecked by injury and Dean had overcome his upperclassman loyalty and started Wallace and Stackhouse in 1993-94
3. would be remembered as a member of the greatest college team of all time if he, Stack, and Jeff McInnis had all stayed to join Jamison, Carter, Cota, S. Williams, Okulaja, Ndiaye, and Zwikker in 1996-97
4. deserves all the praise and most all the criticism in this vid for his pro career, plus a head scratch for how anemic his rebounding always was.
Soooooo underrated. I enjoyed watching him play especially on the Pistons!
Sheed is my favorite PF of all-time.
No way he's better than Giannis, BS, better jumpshot, post moves...But Giannis length & athleticism is out of this world...
Facts! Not even close!
From 96- 2016 those Group of NBA Players are my Era!! Just to Name A Few 2000 era Ko8e,, KEvin Garnett, Tim Duncan, T-Mac, Vince Carter, Allen Iverson, PauL Pierce, Rasheed Wallace, Dirk, Ray Allen Pau Gasol Steve Nash, Amare Stoudamire Manu Ginobli Ben Wallace the List Goes on and On!!💪🏾💯 I would put my era up against any era in Basketball!! Especially the 90s Era(Jordan) they would be the Most competition Jordan, Pippen, Barkley, Olajuwon, Patrick Ewing, Dennis Rodman,
Reggie Miller, KarL Malone, Gary Payton, Alonzo Mourning Dikembe Mutombo Mark Price
The 90s was A center driven League Talent Wise!!
2010 era The Lebron Era is Deep LBJ, KD, Steph, Kawhi, Anthony Davis, D.Wade Chris Bosh Chris PauL Carmelo Anthony Draymond Green, Dwight Howard, Boogey Cousins
LBJ era Lacks Size but they have speed and athleticism oh yeah they have Steph Curry 🤦🏾♂️😁
I’m gonna Double Down on My 2000s Era
Ko8e era is the toughest IMO💪🏾💪🏾💯💯💯
If you couldn’t dominate in your own ERA you definitely ain’t dominating in a different one.
Not necessarily true some skill sets are under utilized in different eras
@@kunalpatel1147 his skill sets were unique for his era, now literally everyone can do what Rasheed can. He would undoubtedly be WORSE today
@@arch8748 fair point there is also the foul trouble he’d be averaging 25 minutes a game from foul trouble in todays game
A big time kc chiefs fan from back in the day
Diff was a beast hands down inside/out and can shot the 333333and that defense
Sheed!!!
IF RASHEED WALLACE DIDN'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH REPORTERS EVERYDAY .. HE'D HAVE BEEN AN ALL-TIME GREAT ..
Yes my favorite player 🙌 👏
Only if he played in this era.
Rasheed didn't have Giannis drive and that is the difference between them 2 at the end of the day Giannis is greater than Rasheed leaps and bounds
Sheed was big love ❤️
Everyone commenting that this is wild is showing there young age or they’re a sheed hater. His style was made for todays game
Stop it Iggy. Please stop it. Giannis is way better. Just in his own Era. Chris Webber in his own era ate Wallace's lunch. Chris Webber had a better shot of being close to Giannis... stop it. Put this to bed please
You're CRAZY!! In that Era....only PF better than Rasheed is/was Ticket and Dirk, slightly..... Duncan who really is A center, if classified as A 4, is as well, N0T Webber or any other
Had a great high school coach the late great mr.ellerbee he had them cross country as well so sheed could run all day and nobody could guard him one of my favorite players and I he never shitted on his teammates but he could've been an all star every year if wanted to
Dont sleep on his defense either. Rasheed Wallace could do it all. The Blazer runhe was a key component on both sides of the court. With Detroit along Ben Wallace he solidified that DEFENSE WINS CHAMPIONSHIPS mentality. He got his most deserved championship title. Dethroning the 3 time repeating champion Lakers who had a stacked team when both Kobe and Shaq were at their peak and prime.
My guy always said he didn't want to be a all-time great, just wanted a chip, that was he mind set.
Sheed guarded shack one on one no help and had a long arms with a shot like Robert parish and McHale with attitude loved em
Completely disagree. When was Sheed ever in ANY MVP conversation?
If he wanted to he could've been the best power forward with his skill set but he didn't want to be.
Finally Sheeeeeddd.
Team first. Made every team better.
Sheed was a peopled champ but Andre saying he'd be better than the Greek freak is one of those things Iggy been doing that makes him so corny these days.
Iggy kept talking like an expert while he can only get a ring with Curry and Klay in his team. Oh sorry, while he’s in Curry and Klay’s team.
Played wit or against sheed my whole life one of the greatest ever from NORF PHILLY..YALL JST SAW ALIL BIT OF HIS GAME💯💯💯💯💯💯
Rookie sheed looking like Scottie Barnes out there
What that boy got flowing thru his system 🤣
❤️💯👊
This man was unfortunate, his coaches never believed on him to be the number 1 option and in this era the 3 pts shooting was not appreciated and planned like now
💯 Rasheed Wallace is great don't forget💯
Ball Don’t LIE!!
Sheed could have been one of the great. For me he's a passive scorer. But he got all the skills to get the bucket.
Rasheed Wallace was one of the most talented power forwards of all time. He was more skilled than Tim Duncan. He was a better passer, good rebounder, good post scorer and could shoot the three when big men weren’t even allowed to do so.
However, greatness is not only about skill and talent. Mentally he just didn’t have it. He would lose focus often, one perceived bad call by the refs and he would just fall apart. The guy clearly had mental issues.
Also, in clutch time he never took over the game even though he had the talent to do so. He would often over pass or just make dumb plays when the game was on the line.
It became evident when he went to Detroit that he was better suited as a talented role player than the number one option. He couldn’t handle the pressure of being the alpha on a basketball team.
People today love to mock the players of the past but yet the players of the past would do even better today. Penny Hardaway, Grant Hill, T-Mac, Sheed, Hakeem etc. these guys were amazing in their time and today would cripple the league more. Steph Curry be eating the floor trying to defend Penny Hardaway
If Sheed thought the refs were soft when he played, he'd have an aneurysm now.
I’ve always loved the way Rasheed played. But we need to stop saying players from different eras would either be better, or bums. Why can’t we just appreciate the players for where they are now.
Rasheed Wallace was awesome. I think he just never found a team that really worked for him or could actually take advantage of his talent.
Detroit worked for him.
That's true. The game today is so soft that Giannis can do whatever he wants. In the 90s, he couldn't do what he is doing today.
Someone said that Rasheed would be the equivalent to Karl Anthony Towns in today’s game…sounds kinda accurate to me
Rasheed Wallace and Reggie Miller were both Dangerous in there prime
BALL DON'T LIE!
They hated on him but he was a killer.
If rasheed Wallace played today he will be DeMarcus cousins
I think a lot of PFs were great at offense(10 ft in) and rebounding. Now, you can find better RBers, but Sheed was offensive(anywhere inside the arc), INCREDIBLE 3PT shueting for a big, and a great defender. I think he's a better PF than Lucas as a Trailblazer when you add everything up, though Lucas is more well known and probably more accredited as being a great player. Then, he went on to Detroit and might have gotten 2 rings--without Big shaht Bob happening again!
draymond just said melo was a better scorer than KD, i'll never take another former player opinion seriously again
RASHEED was so good he would have 15 and 10 without going to the line! The refs hated him! HE could beat him up and they never called a FOUL!
As A Laker Fan!! I never liked Sheed, because he always Cooked my Lakers No matter what team he was on! I always Thought Sheed held A grudge against L.A From that 2000 WCF game 7 Comeback 😁🤦🏾♂️ But As A Basketball Fan Sheed was one of my Favorite players!
I agree the only thing that held Sheed back was Sheed his Focus his Temper his Passion was not for the weak and the NBA Never Showed love to Black Outspoken players!!
The NBA Markets only politically Correct Talent!! Rasheed Wallace Just may be one of the all-time Underrated players Ever along with Reggie Miller & Definitely Isiah Thomas!!
To A lower degree my Guy Latrell Sprewell is Very much underrated 💯
Ball don't lie!!!
Top 10 of all time in my list idc what anyone says they beat Kobe and shaq
Chris Webber and Garnett were monsters
SHEED BETTER Than Chris
