Gerald Wallace had a fantastic season for the Charlotte Bobcats this year
Gerald Wallace was the main reason why the Charlotte Bobcats made the playoffs this season, proving that he is one of the best all-around players in the NBA. Whether it was scoring, rebounding, or shutting down a star player on the opposing team, Wallace did it all for the Bobcats this season. On the season he averaged 18.2 points, 10.1 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.5 steals, and 1.1 blocks. He shot 48% from the field, 37% from three, and 78% from the free-throw line. Averaging a double-double in points and rebounds is no easy task in the NBA, especially when you are only 6’7″ and 220 lbs. He is the size of a shooting guard, but he rebounds and blocks shots like he is a power forward. Wallace’s abilities get overlooked a lot in this league, but he truly is one of the best all-around players in the game right now. His numbers prove that. I’m sure new owner Michael Jordan appreciates everything that Wallace does on the court, because Wallace does whatever it takes to get the win. Bobcats’ fans can’t be too disappointed in their first-round exit in the playoffs, because the Bobcats (and almost every team) had no answer for the Magic’s Dwight Howard. They should be proud of their winning season and Wallace’s great year, and the future is bright with the duo of Wallace and Stephen Jackson, along with that guy MJ calling the shots now.
