Re: BREAKING: Rasheed Wallace retires
Loved Sheeds game, could have at least come back to pick up one more tech foul lol, o well I wish him the best I heard some stories that hes actually a top guy off the court as well, he retired with a ring and he will be known for a long time imo.
Re: BREAKING: Rasheed Wallace retires
Huh? Didn't he just come back from an injury? Did he get injured again in that game?
Re: BREAKING: Rasheed Wallace retires
Wtf, I thought he was suppose to play in their last game?
Re: BREAKING: Rasheed Wallace retires
He had HoF talent and didn't maximize that but still had a good career. One of the few guys that took unselfish play too far but at his peak there's no team that wouldn't have wanted him.
Re: BREAKING: Rasheed Wallace retires
He played 4 minutes against Bobcats,got injured again and then decided to retire.

He got hurt again.
I'm disappointed. He looked great to start the year, its a pretty sad way to end your career going out right before the Playoffs. I was hoping he'd be able to play a few more meaningful minutes but it's probably not possible at this point. Very good career nonetheless.

Re: SHEED RETIRES: Rasheed Wallace is now retired
I'm sure it sucks going out on an injury, but he can also rest easy knowing he went until the wheels fell off. He gave it everything he had. Body just won't hold up.
