He's been consistently one of the league's top 10 efficiency leaders pretty much every year of his career. You must not be aware that there are other players on the Pistons roster that are dragging the team down.

as a pistons fan, i knew as soon as ben left the team, we would never win a championship ever again. i remember in 06 the pistons philosophical mindset changed with the introduction of a new coach that was incompatible to Wallace's playstyle. had larry brown stayed in detroit, no doubt the pistons would have retained wallace and most likely went on to win another championship. in 05, they were a few minutes from repeating if not for some lapses on defense. (cough rasheed wallace.) i mean the fact that the pistons didn't even return to another finals after his departure just proves how much the pistons benefited from having his defense. Really this team collapsed after chauncey was traded. those two were the most important players on the team and they kept them going.

When a big play was needed on the defensive end of the court Wallace ALWAYS came through. You need to do nothing more then watch the (5) game sweep against the Lakers in the finals to understand his value. He was relentless and disruptive. God Bless this man, he is an example of hard work and good character.

Wallace wasn't just a great defender at his peak he was arguably the greatest defender in the past 50 years. Besides Wilt Chamberlain and Bill Russell nobody in the history of the game had more defensive win shares than Wallace in 03-04. The two highest playoff defensive win shares belong to Wallace as well. His 03 and 04 seasons were worth 25% more than any other defensive season in the past 30 years. Think about that, no player in 30 years has been worth even 75% of what Wallace was worth defensively in his prime. Just an absolute freak.

People don’t understand, in a league based open genetics when your 6 foot 7 without shoes even if you have no offense being a defensive monster is insane.

That’s why people love Wallace, he fought his odds and still was a beast.

Ben Wallace was one of maybe three people that you were comfortable with guarding Shaq alone (Tim Duncan and Yao Ming at his peak were probably the only others), and that was a MAJOR reason the Pistons beat the Lakers in '04; as it allowed for the other Pistons to make every other Laker lives a living hell for five games without having to worry about collapsing in and double teaming.

@@jcvlooogs5706 you're a joke. Potential and talent don't get you into the HOF idiot. TMac had 5 good years in which he accomplished nothing. Wallace is an all-time defender, multiple time defensive player of the year and champion. Seriously do you know anything dumbass? Calling someone 10 when you yourself is clearly no older than 12 to think that being a good player is enough to be in the HOF. Don't have kids we don't need people like you. Moron.

@@makis7383 that should have no bearing on why he gets into the HOF. Penny Hardaway did just as much as him and made the finals and isn't in the there. But TMac is? There is no way to slice it where its logical TMac is there. Short prime and he accomplished nothing outside of 2 scoring titles.

How is he not in the HoF already? Nobody can deny he was the heart and soul of an NBA title team, that was also runner up in 7 games next year, made multiple All NBA and D teams and was 4 time DPOY. If you win a league wide award that goes to the best Defensive player 4 times, that itself should get you in.

He shines bright in Pistons because he has a lot of scorers around him. This undrafted guy worked his way up to be an all-star. Although he’s undersize, he’s so hard inside the paint that even Shaq was having a hard time scoring on him.

Im old enough to remember Bird vs Magic , Bad Boys, MJ's Bulls, San Antonio's Dynasty and that shamble that was Miami. That Pistons from 04\05 are my favorite team I ever watched. Ben and Rasheed, Billups, Hamilton, Prince, these guys where the definition of team play, effort, and heart. You watch the NBA in any era and teams take effort breaks throughout a game or season, it is understandable. A long season and a long post season and conserving some fuel in the tank is a legit thing. However, those Piston teams every damn trip down the floor against them they would D up like it was game seven. Alot of that was because of Ben Wallace. One of my favorite NBA highlights to this day was when he not only blocked Shaq, but put Shaq on his ass with only one hand. Great player should be in HOF.
