SlamOnline.com ranksPortland Trail Blazers forward Gerald Wallace No. 41 on its Top 50 NBA players list.Chris Hayneswrites... ----------------------- Wallace is "Mr. Versatility," at 6-8 you can find him anywhere on the court guarding the opposing point guards to the power forwards, which allows LaMarcus Aldridge time to rest on the defensive end. His nickname, "Crash," exemplifies his aggressive style of play on both ends of the court. Coach Nate McMillan doesn’t need to draw up plays for him; Wallace finds his opportunities within the flow of the offense which is pretty remarkable for a player of his caliber. Did I mention he’s low maintenance? ----------------------- Wallace was ranked No. 39 bySI.com earlier this summer. -- Ben Golliver | benjamin.golliver@gmail.com |Twitter
