Rasheed Wallace's Gangsta ass tried to get in Refs Locker Room after the Game!

That nig was hot! I think it's fair to believe this was 'Sheed's last go-round and for him to be robbed of it by the refs (in his opinion) sent him over the edge. When you're retiring anyway (most likely) what have you got to lose when you're Rasheed Wallace? Your good rep with NBA management?
But being as enigmatic as Sheed is, he might have just wanted to say "goodbye". I'll miss that guy.

Did not see the game (too boring), but I can tell you that Wallace is probably the reason Boston did not win. With Perkins out it was up to Wallace to step up and get points in the paint that Perkins usually gets.
With no power points, best Celtics will get is Garnett's fallaway jumpers which are NOT power points

You thought that game was boring???? Of course you didn't watch it so I'm not sure how you can make that judgement.
Wallace isn't the reason they lost, Perkins injury was far more responsible. Not because of the points Perkins gets (Sheed's a much better scorer and showed that) but because Perkins is a big physical defender/rebounder. Wallace, with his bad back,age, and hamstring problems, couldn't maintain the level of productivity over the course of the game with there not being another options to give him long breaks.
Boring?!?!? Dude this game was not about 'Power Points"? It's not like Perkins was a 20/10 guy before he got hurt and with the Lakers size up front Boston never was going to win that overall battle. Games was lost by...1) Allen/Pierce not giving them a damn thing consistently and 2) Doc Rivers mis-managed his starts minutes therefore they gassed out in the fourth quarter. He definitely should have rested them periodically during the games earlier moments when they had a double digit lead, in the event the Lakers made a run at the end of the game they would be fresher, which they did and Boston wasn't physically prepared for the run... 
Absolutely. The little bit that I saw in the 2nd and 4th quarters was boring to me. Nothing but jump shots from Boston. The only cat trying to get into the paint was Rondo...
Perkins does not have to hit 20 points. But EVERY team needs to be able to get a few points down low. That's the best way to free your outside shooters up high. The Celtics (from the smidget of the game that I saw) didn't even try it. Not while I watched. But I might have stomached the sloppinees if not for the announcers busy telling us how well both teams are exectuing. All I saw was forced up 3 pointers, turnovers and bad handling....The defense was intense, but the execution was not
BORING
Dude, Wallace gave them 11 and 8, thats equal to or better than Perkins average production. I believe they hurt a little in terms of interior defense, but offensively, not so much..
Now we know why he did it. He knew he was retiring and didn't have anything to lose
btw, in reference to the previous post, Wallace has never been known as a cat to get you CONSISTENT points in the paint. He is certainly capable and has a decent post game, Unfortunately, he's just as likely to jack up a three than try a power move. Even in his heyday
