The Detroit News is reporting that Ben Wallace is dissapointed with the Pistons offer.
The Pistons’ negotiations to re-sign free agent Ben Wallace have gotten off to a rough start.
Wallace, in an interview with The Detroit News on Sunday, said he wasn’t pleased with the Pistons’ initial offer.
“It was disappointing,” he said. “It was not at all what I expected.”
The Pistons’ initial offer was a four-year deal starting at $11.5 million and would pay him $49.6 million over four years. It would make Wallace the highest-paid player on the team next season, eclipsing Rasheed Wallace’s salary by $100,000.
Pistons president Joe Dumars, reached by e-mail, said he didn’t want to negotiate through the newspaper and declined comment. Via The Detroit News
After that shit I would trade Ben Wallace for Kevin Garnett! Ben is not worth, no 50 million a year!
if ben goes to chicago for a couple extra million dollars then he’s just being a selfish asshole. detroit is the team that gave him the opportunity to be known and be in the situation to be the top free agent in the off-season. if he just walks out on detroit for just a couple extra million, fuck.
wtf is wrong with him he needs to sign with the pistons or theyre done with 8(
Big Ben is gone…..i cant believe it….they just said on espn that he is signing with the bulls.

=[ he’s gone.
what a selfish asshole.
I will never again cheer for Ben Wallace. ESPN.com is reporting that Ben has informed the Pistons that he will sign with the Bulls on July 12th. F**k him. He may make his extra million a year, but he’ll never be welcome back in Detroit.
bens gone, goodnight dynasty.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Our new center: #00 out of Adynasty University, the 6 feet under, Endova Nera.
The Bulls have offered 60 million for 4 years. It Sucks but the pistons only offered him 48 mil. 12 million dollars is a lotta money
and most likely this is his last big contract. It’s Sad but i guess it’s all about the BENjamins:(
wtf, I cannot believe this. All these years he has been the face of The Pistons. And just for a couple million more, he’s gone.
Pistons are better off without ben! Ben missed too many free throws and did not play offense well!KG IS GONNA BE BETTER THAN BEN!
who cares about him now, chauncey,rasheed,rip,and tayshaun will get more points. joe d shoud’ve traded him for KG
Ben is leaving for more money and I still believe Flip Saunders. He wants to be part of the offense. Flip doesn’t know how to make him part of the offense because he has no offensive abilities, what can Flip really do?
man fuck ben wallace!..he was my favorite player here..HE LEFT OVER 2 MILLION MORE DOLLARS!!!he wudda been makin about 12 mil a year with us and 14 with chicago..COMON NOW hes just selfish..its ok..we’re gonna sign bonzi wells and we got nazr mohammed..its all good…we’re gonna win a ship before ben ever will again!
i think we should of traded ben b4 he was signed by the bulls. we should of traded him for tyson chandler. or do a 3 way trade with another team to get a guard.
