Good read. Should help alleviate the worries about all the articles saying how Wallace may be on the outs with Coach Brown. Seems that things are not as bad as some make it out to be. That is good news in my book.

I still think its a 50/50 shot he's on the floor come game 1. I really hope he's here.

Great that LB has been impressed with his passing. He does have the ability to pass - especially those quick passes to the weak side cutter - it's more his transition passing and initiating the break he needs to work on.

May be a ploy by Brown and the org., but I doubt it... I don't quite see Gerald being dealt.

Good read, and specifically on defense, reflects what I and most others have said - that'll be a good adjustment for him, assuming he gets it down.

I would figure if they were going to trade him, they would have done it by now. That's not to say they won't eventually trade him, maybe later in the season. But you would figure that if they were going to trade him in the very near future, they would have already done it so they could start training camp with whatever new players we receive in return.

Who knows, hopefully he ends up fitting into the LB system and becomes even more valuable to us. I'd assume that if we did want to trade him, we would be sure to tout how good he is instead of taking the "anyone wanna buy this, we don't really want it" approach. It was mentioned that the trade interest was initiated by other teams once Brown got there...

Wallace will be an all-star this year. book it. Wallace just needs a 'proper' coach to bring out the best in him.

It just sucks that his game style causes so much injuries. Hopefully he can find ways to stay healthy and still play at that same tempo this season.
