Who cares? I think those few years were more than enough.

When for the rest of his career (and the majority) he was a locker room disturbance?

I said Ben Wallace because how many people can really stop Shaq and get in his heads.

That's not a great argument for Big Ben. Big Ben is an above average man up defender but nowhere near the level of someone like Duncan or even 'Sheed down low (whose down of the better jobs on Shaq in the past 5 years). If the Pistons play the Lakers, 'Sheed will be on Shaq (and Campbell) with Big Ben on weakside. Did you see Harrington muscle down and away Big Ben two, almost three consecutive times in Game 2 or 3?

Let's not look at the disturbance since that wasnt in the original question:

so who's better?


Answer, Rodman, with or without his disturbing antics, Rodman.

The guy you quoted meant to write Rodman, I think he just made a mistake, Ben never got in Shaq's head, Rodman however did.

I'd say Rodman too.

But I think Ben Wallace (as he's playing now) would have been more usefull for the Bulls than Rodman in his last 2 seasons with the bulls (1997-1998).
