Seriously, does anyone have the gif of him being blocked and thrown down to the floor by Noah?

And can someone post the block on Butler too? ....Seriously, everyone is getting a bit ridiculous with stuff like this. It's okay to post gif of stuff like that to prove some sort of point while Lopez or any other positive player can get dunked on, blocked or any form of embarrassment and it's brushed aside.

Are you not seeing the gif where he misses rim on a layup?

This happens to Wallace on a routine basis, and just kind of epitomizes what he's been like this season. When I think of Wallace, I absolutely think of him getting blocked, him missing layups, or him bricking jumpers.

When I think of Lopez, I think of a vastly improved player who's been carrying us this season. He's earned the right to have his mistakes and his embarrassing moments brushed aside.

What the does any of that have to do with wanting to see the gif? Is he your brother or something? Damn. I pay ticket prices too, if I want to see him get **** blocked, I can see him get blocked.

You people take this stuff way too seriously. I'm not stealing his bank account and forcing him out on the street, I'm asking to see a gif of a funny moment.

Watching that gif over and over (the airballed layup)...JJ and Lopez start walking towards the other end of the court, because they're assuming Wallace is going to make it...I mean how could he not, he's right under the rim and he's pretty open...Deng contests, but he's late. You can almost see Lopez just freeze when he notices the ball went over the hoop. :lol:

That's the even crazier part of his falloff, he really looked good and played with energy and heart for pretty much all of November and part of December.


Same, I was a legit Gerald Wallace fan for the first couple months of the season, but he's been BAD since then.

OMG, I found this thread, talk about making a moron out of oneself, check out my OP about Wallace (and D-Will, who fell off badly after that) :lol:

viewtopic.php?f=23&t=1216301&p=33793512

I'll try and dig up the preseason thread.


To be fair, Reggie Evans was excellent that first month because he came off the bench and played the role of annoying defender and elite rebounding that rarely attempted to score one on one against his defender. Aside from rebounding everything else has disappeared. He isn't even getting under the opponents skin anymore. That first month he deserved that 10. Now he deserves like a 3.

Funny or not, It's annoying when everyone is going to highlight him getting blocked to fuel a "oh he sucks" thread and blatantly ignore his positive highlights in the same game.

Can we use the stretch provision on this guy?

i'd agree here... it has gotten to the point where we have all turned into overeactive self-trolls like DWOTG. i mean in the game threads it takes exactly 1 play before its reggies fault and we will lose becuase of him. it takes exactly 1 sub pattern before we blame pj and he is going to lose the game for us. it takes 1 missed shot by wallace before he lost the game for us. hell, sometimes none of those have to happen... we could just be down by 5 at some point and its those guys fault, no matter what.

people KILLED reggie last game. he didnt play well AT ALL. he sucked! but you would think he turned it over 12 times and played terrible ball for 35 minutes. what have we said here? reggie has to go back to being a 15 mpg reserve right?

well against the bulls he played just 17 minutes, half of those came in a first quarter were we scored 27 points on 60+ % shooting and were tied. he played a little over 8 minutes the rest of the game, and we got crushed from that point on. not saying we should have had more reggie, not at all.... point is, maybe some other things were a huge issue with us getting smacked around as he wasnt on the court for 28 of the final 36 minutes.

Reggie sucks and need to not start and play 10-15 mpg
Wallace sucks and needs to play 24-28 mpg and more at the 4 to go small
PJ needs to be fired

it does get kind of old though that these guys are scapegoated for EVERY bad possession the entire game. "bring in mirza" .. mirza comes in "screw you pj mirza isnt doing well because he sat so long". "go with blatche and lopez more!" blatche and lopez play together "F you PJ why did mirza come out!"

^^When Reggie re-entered the game with 4 minutes & change to go in the 2nd, it was a 2-point game. By halftime it was a 14-point game. Coincidence? Also, he was beyond awful in the first few minutes of the 3rd, which sealed the deal for the Bulls. He KILLED us. He shouldn't even be in the rotation.

i dont see how that helps us...

even if we waited and waived him in july, that would make his roughly 30 million remaining be spread out over 7 years. meaning a 4.3M cap hit instead of 10 million.

is waiving wallace really worth saving 5.7M dollars the next 3 years when we are commited to at the very least: 66M, 59M, and 57M not including small cap holds/buyouts/rookies/etc.

what are we doing with an extra 5.7M next year? nothing. the followng year? nothing.

if we do stretch him, it would make more sense to do it in 2015, when wallace becomes completely unusable and he has 2 years left, giving us more flexibilty in 2016/2017 when guys start coming off the books. but even then it would be more wise to just wait it out 1 more year, trade him as a large expiring and get him off the books completely.

Wallace is basically half-assing it. I just hope he's coasting for the playoffs or something but I know that is not the case. He looked way more determined when Deron was out against Indiana and Joe was struggling.

I think it was his best complete game of the year completely taking George out of the game defensively, attacking the rim, making good decisions on passes, knocking down jumpshots. His last recent good game was against the Hornets on Eric Gordon, knocking down corner shots, etc.

I just don't get why he's that inconsistent on energy and effort against certain players or certain teams.

Who gives a **** what people do? I have yet to even state one thing about Gerald Wallace in this thread outside of his contract status. So to imply that would be my end goal, as you have done, is a bit disingenuous.

And to be clear, I was actually asking for it to see the play that Noah made, not Wallace's failure.
