He's definitely one of David Stern's "Top Five" a la those T-mobile commercials. (that'd be a funny commercial for t-mobile!! )

Re: Rasheed Wallace: NBA is all fake
If the NBA is fake, then maybe they should pay Wallace with Monopoly money?

Re: Rasheed Wallace: NBA is all fake
Well, the fights are less realistic looking than a WWE match, that's for sure.

Re: Rasheed Wallace: NBA is all fake
However looney Rasheed Wallace is, he makes a valid argument. The NBA can call an offical these days, and influence who wins the games. They have in the past, and it will happen in the future. Now I don't know if it happened in this situation, but let's not put it past the NBA.

Re: Rasheed Wallace: NBA is all fake
Refs fixing games? Check.

David Stern getting LaBron in the Finals? Check.

What else are we missing from the "fake" equation?

So if the WWE has Wrestlemania, then the NBA will have the Finals?
