Big Ben is probably the only player in NBA history (apart from maybe Dennis Rodman) who could dominate an entire game without scoring a single point. As a Pistons fan, this dude made my childhood!
Jason Kidd also
Nabeel Zazaian TV maybe dennis rodman? Lol maybe???? LOL
Dude you don't know what you're talking about he learned from rodman
@@deshawnnelson742 Rodman never was the tallest or the strongest so how could they be the same? That's exactly what's impressive about Dennis he was against the odds most times.
My thoughts exactly - but I'd also have to add Magic
Kids be looking at his stats and judging. This guy Ben Wallace was a BEAST, stats dont show that
Chongolo it shouldn’t be just about stats... his Win shares, W-L & his accolades including DPOY will help Ben Wallace become a HOF which he should’ve already been about a year ago
It shouldn’t be about stats.. here’s some stats to prove that
N8ve Jay Its all about stats nowadays. You're completely right
He has good stats outside of offense tho
Chongolo stats are overrated I look at what you do on the court
6'9" body builder with the heart of Iverson and the hops of Dominique. PUT THIS MAN IN THE HALL OF FAME! Called it. He's in now, 2 years later. 👍
Nathan Lawson agreed!!!
Iverson never won any ring
@@izukumidoriya4500 ben won a ring and still ain't in the hall of fame smh
Perfect description yo'...
@highlyanticipated death Damn!
Add this to Big Ben Wallace's resume: enshrined member of the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame Class of 2021.
Talk about a man that truly earned his keep,
A well deserved spot in the hall of fame
Brings a tear to my eye being able to read this. This man was the heart and soul of Detroit
Finally!
Lakers thought they could buy a ring this yr!
Ben Wallace almost won finals MVP imagine that an undrafted player winning that
@Just a Man I mean no disrespect to sheed but Ben Wallace was guarding Shaq and he was the anchor on defense more than Rasheed
@Just a Man anytime you go against Shaq he's gonna get his, he's the most dominant player since wilt Chamberlain. Shaq had good numbers but he didn't go off like he did in 00, 01, and 02. Ben Wallace did a great job on him.
All y’all’s arguments are only solidifying the team atmosphere of this Pistons squad. So when everybody excelled at their role the team leader gets the nod. Chauncey deserved it but Prince was always my favorite player for silently defending guys who routinely put up insane numbers but he was content with throttling those back just a bit. All season and still went hard. Big Ben was hard not to love, tho. Undersized and all!
@@JWPshenigans true, there was no clear finals mvp that year. But Ben was guarding the opposing teams best player and I don't think they win the chip without him
Spencer Morgan I agree about Ben. To try and downplay how much he disrupted Shaq is such a huge slight on him and Shaq. Yeah, Shaq’s numbers were pretty descent for these Finals but nobody stopped Shaq like Ben did for 5 straight games. Even Hakeem had difficulties many times.
If Ben Wallace can develop a jumper then Ben Simmons have no excuses
@Kam Mike are u hurt
I think I found Ben Simmons' yt account ^^^^
HoopZ “it’s his second year” nigga he’s been playing basketball since he was 7😂😂
Nick Raad you have a point but it’s hard for some players it’s not as easy as just practice it a lor
@Kam Mike you don't have jumper too😂
Undrafted. NBA champ. 4x DPOY. Hall of Fame. Ben Wallace was always my favorite player growing up. Hit the gong one more time
If he won finals MVP as a undrafted player that would have been amazing
These were the good old days of basketball 🏀 I wish Detroit Pistons basketball was like this again. 2004 was a very rough year for me. That’s when I lost my mother to cirrhosis of the liver back in May of 2004. I just like to thank the 2004 Detroit Pistons. You guys winning the NBA championship helped me to get through a very difficult year.
Sorry for your lost, it was brotherly love everywhere all over the city l don't think it was a single murder anywhere that day it was beautiful.
Never again because now they want these soft players to score.
Basketball are in the better days now
Fidel Shorter man I am so sorry to hear that man. God allows things to happen sometimes in life we don’t understand and also allows a comforter. Your comforter was those 2004 Detroit Pistons. As a lifelong Sixers fan I remember this series and was pulling hard for your Pistons. Here’s to you and your mother, God bless 🙏🏾🕊️
ok mike yapowski
People forget how good a defense they were. Holding people under 70 points in the playoffs.
Quel M Facts!
Lisa Rose okay boogey nice insight
Tayshaun Prince gave Kobe problems Rip
Any who says defense is boring, is not a true fan, has never had a physical labor job, and should consider darts or bowling.. it's all about best shooting..
@@joshgasseling Also gave reggie the block of his life 💀
Ben Wallace was a different beast
I'm not a huge Pistons fan, but I've never forgotten these stats First team to ever win Game 3-4-5 of the NBA Finals on the road (1990) ('91 Bulls would repeat this the next year) First team to win Game 3-4-5 of the NBA Finals at home (2004) ('06 Heat did this, but not in closeout scenario) Only team in NBA Finals history to win Game 6 on the road and force Game 7 after being down 3-2 in a Finals (2005) As the 2-3-2 format is now gone, that last record will probably never be touched. I wish they didn't change it. It was one of the only achievements in NBA history that has never happened. No team has ever come back from 0-3 to win a series, and no team had ever won Game 6 & 7 on the road in the NBA Finals. The '05 Pistons were the only team in history that ever had the chance to make that second record happen.
Rondo SZN used to me my favorite hustle guys outside of RODMAN!
How is he not In the hall of fame
But was he a different animal AND the same beast?
Luiz Spindola 😂😂😂😂
Ben Wallace should have been Finals MVP. Billups was the high scorer but Ben Wallace's dominant defense and rebounding was the clear difference factor.
The fact that Ben Wallace was only 6'9" but managed to constantly dominate centers in the league is insane.
He is a different animal
And he wasn't even really 6'9" by many accounts. He might have been an inch or two shorter than that. Seeing him next to guys like Lebron, I'd agree.
His real height is 6’7
Matt De Leon the hair added inches.
6'9 with shoes maybe 6'10 max
This man was a beast he didn't care about scoring he did what was needed for the team & this goes to show you that defense wins championships
Idk about times ten lets not forget how many rings draymond has
Diamonds And Pearls lets not forget he has Curry, Klay & has had KD & Demarcus Cousins..
@Lisa Rose maybe neither of these teams but Shaq & Kobe's early 00 Laker teams could
@Lisa Rose as great of shooters Steph, KD & Klay are they do miss shots besides fouling him there is LITERALLY no answer for Shaq
@Lisa Rose Curry & Durant are not just shooters I agree with that but Kobe is not gonna allow BOTH of them to kill the Lakers he would do everything he could to contain one of them but there is NOBODY on the Warriors defensively that can try to neutralize Shaq or Kobe
Came back to this video to celebrate Ben Wallace induction into the basketball HOF. It’s well deserved and long overdue. The only center that wouldn’t back back down from a PRIME Shaq
Same and 2 years later saw that dudes comment about Ben Simmons from back then and literally laughed out loud at how well it has aged
That was not prime shaq 😂 that was Big Mac shaq at that time, this what started the beef between Kobe and Shaq and I ain’t a Kobe fan but he did had the right to call him out being overweight
That defense was unreal. Their sheer effort on that side of the ball wore teams down.
People forget that weird lineup of corliss at sf with ben okur...and how tenacious mike james was on this team plus the energy elden still had...
But “the East was Weak for LBJ”. I wish people that say that would realize how badass those Pistons teams were. Dominated everybody on defense. No body has an answer on how to stop you if you are stopping them
@@jeffreystewart5404 LeBron didn't beat these Pistons. The peak versions of this Pistons era was 2004 and 2005. He beat them after Ben Wallace was gone. He beat Chris Webber and Antonio Mcdyss version of the Pistons.
@@chito4 duncan beat them
RIP Stuart Scott
Dude said "you're the pistons, you don't shoot 60%" hahah
RIP Kobe Bryant
RIP both 😔😔
Best commentator in ESPN history, all class and professionalism all the time
For the series, Shaq scored 26.6 ppg on 63% shooting. What Pistons did was deny the ball to Shaq, and they did it as a team. The guy who got really shutdown was Kobe, 17% shooting from the threes is really bad.
nomooon chill Shaq and Kobe lost them the series. Ben Wallace was dominating Shaq tf you mean nigga
the problem was all the internal fights between the lakers. kobe and shaq beef, karl and kobe beef. pistons played full court defense which dint let shaq setup on offense and control tempo. instead kobe just kept trying to ball hog. they coulda easily beat the pistons. doesnt take away how good they were tho but lakers were clearly the better team
Ben defended Shaq well, but you can't blame Shaq for the series loss. Look at the most important game 4, final score 88-80, no stats padding, every point counts. Shaq had 36 points on 76% shooting, and 20 rebounds. What more can you ask him? Is this the stats of someone who got shut down by individual defense? Shaq got shut down by Pistons team defense, not individual defense.
Kobe was awful in this series, thank goodness for Pau, Bynum and Odom that his story didn't end there
Yeah but the Pistons shut all the role players down so the Los Angeles only had Shaq as a reliable scoring option but you can't win a series only scoring in the post
I used to workout with Ben Wallace when I was 16 at a LA Fitness in West Bloomfield. Dude was nuts
Why nuts

Ben Wallace defense was insane he was so athletic
yep, i think being an undersized center helped him to be more athletic and agile despite his very muscular / bodybuilder body. it's very rare to see that an undersized player can become one of the all-time greatest rim protectors in the leauge's history. imagine if he's much taller, he'd be more intimidating!!
Dude is 6'9" ain't no undersize there
@@kenstoudamire7366 for a center back then he was small he had to go against: Dikembe, Hakeem, Shaq and the likes

Arguably best defensive player ever. Dude made it from NOTHING !!!!!! To 4 time DPOY! And he was only 6”9!
Your profile pic says it all
Miltonman100 he’s actually 6’7” Big Ben admitted himself
Only Kobe fans think he's not a hall of famer.
Ben, rasheed, tayshaun, rip/richard, and chauncey are the best line up in NBA without being called a super team. They are underrated players. Lakers that time have shaq payton bryant and malone and they were called superteam but lets not forget about kobe’s issue and malone is injured (i think or got suspended). And ben wallace has no fear even artest was afraid of him.
We also had a very deep bench
Attest didn’t want know smoke with Ben
Had the better coach in Larry Brown as well
@Harvey McElroy So why was he running from Ben during the malice
YEP
2:26 - "24 minutes away from what could be a championship...". My God, can you only imagine someone saying this to you.
I think people forget how good Ben Wallace was. He is such an underrated player and one of the few players that could slow prime Shaq down.
He should have been defensive player of the year 5 years in a row and that would have made him the only player in NBA history to do so. Oddly enough the only year in the 5 year span he didn't win it was 04 when they won the title.
Damn Ben Wallace mom passed away before he won the championship!? Blood sacrifice for sure!
@@Proud_GOY_Not_juwishReplying a month later to tell you how stupid your comment is
He the greatest defender
@@Proud_GOY_Not_juwishngga what?
Ben always has an special place in my heart. A TRUE defensive player
ben rodman dikembe russell were guys with their defense alone could flip series...
rodman was better
@Cominick Druz maybe in your book
greatest undrafted NBA player ever. no doubt
Ben simply wanted it more in this series. He denied Shaq for the whole series. One of the greatest defensive performances in any finals.
Ben Wallace was so strong. Most jacked dude I’ve ever seen in the NBA
He looks scarier than shaq
I may be a rockets fan but this is definitely the coolest championship win ever, great team work and defense beat down a super team
You still think it’s the coolest even after the raptors just beat the warriors? Pretty similar scenario honestly.
turntwo37 I mean yeah but the warriors were absolutely decimated by injuries the entire season. Had Klay not gone down with that ACL tear in Game 6 the Warriors would’ve had a solid shot of winning a game 7 given the way he was playing.
The Lakers were not a superteam
IMMA ASSHOLE they had Kobe, Shaq, Payton, Malone, Artest, & Fox so I’m pretty sure they were a super team
@@Braylon1997 They had old washed up Payton and Malone and Kobe wasn't in his prime yet, and Shaq was beefing with everybody and trying to leave.
People sleep on Ben Wallace but that dude played with such intensity and bled for the Pistons!!!
#3 was the most exciting number to watch in the 00's Iverson, Wade, Wallace, Marbury, Francis, CP
The whole starting 5 should be in the HoF because they epitomized team work which translated to numerous conference finals, and after the X factor Rasheed Wallace came on a championship against a stacked Lakers team.
People forget that they used to call the 03-04 Lakers the most stacked team of all time back then. And man the Pistons ripped them apart. I love MJ's Bulls, Payton's Sonics and the 13/14 Spurs, but this Pistons team is my go to team if I had to choose. Any day, any night against anybody.
Ben Wallace was draymond times 10...this is beyooonnd me Edit: I’m talking about defense
Just a Man still doesn’t take away the facts I said lol plus ben wallace 6”9 and 100 pounds lighter than shaq
Just a Man Shaq would average 40 on draymond
shaq avg over 30ppg in every other finals
dom kennedy ... there not even the same kind of player
this is beyonnnd me
Loved this pistons team. Big shot Billups, Ben Wallace as the muscle, the original slim reaper, RIP Hamilton. Most of all I just enjoyed watching this series with my dad..
Same feeling my dad brought me into basketball with this team and we’re from Indiana, we rooted against Reggie and the pacers in the playoffs every time, best intro to basketball I’ll never forget funny how Indiana started his love for the pistons when they drafted Isaiah Thomas. Best TEAM ball I’ve ever seen
Congratulations Big Ben for the 2021 Hall of Fame 💪🏾
Yessssss
Ben Wallace is more Fearless will you talk about Dennis Rodman both of them are just simply amazing
This has got to be my favorite NBA finals ever. The intensity of pistons and the satisfaction of watching that lakers team getting beat up. Rip kobe
With the way the NBA is played today you will never see a team like the 04 pistons
They'd end up in jail paying loads of fines.

What?????
2008 Boston Celtics
@@dacreativebrinson66 they were good but that pistons team was on a mission
2014 spurs?? Wth
Spurs, Grizzlies, Celtics, Pacers have all had great defensive teams
the one player that made playing defense look fun... I remember he use to get anything that came to the hole
Dennis Rodman, too and also did it before him.
I lived in Orlando during this time and Ben was my favorite player. I hated he left. What he could do on a dime was insane. Probably my favorite player from this era.
When I first started watching basketball, I didn't know any names or talents in the league, but I was drawn to Wallace for his look and defensive prowess. For a short period in the middle of the 2000s he was truly an iconic player.
I dont know if this makes sense but to me he was And1 but on the defensive side
Very very underrated just because he had no offense. This man was undersized for his position but had defense similar to Bill Russell's. He was athletic. He was a man u would not mess with. He exposed shaq in the 2004 finals and forced him to leave LA. He went to 6 ECF in a row. He's a certified hall of famer.
wweecwwcwtnanba1928 didnt expose shit, shaq was a monster but he did better than most and this team mightve been the best defensive team ever assembled.
shaq averaged 27 and 11 this series...
exposed Shaq? Huh? Shaq, while limited due to Wallace's great effort in denying him the ball on the low post, still put up huge numbers in this series. Who the Pistons really frustrated was Kobe. He shot like 17% from 3 in the finals.
wweecwwcwtnanba1928 hes no bill russell thats for sure he was more like alonzo mourning without a jump shot and wes unseld .and one in one game you think he exposed shaq lol.karl malone gpt injured in that series and the rest of the lakers got locked down defensively while shaq did his part in that finals .and lets get something clear he didnt force shaq out of la la land kobes ego and wanting to lead the team ad well as laker management wanting to move into a new direction forced shaq diesal out of los angeles .but back to big ben he was the strongest smallest center in nba history period .
ben did not make the 07 or 08 east finals ..by then he was on other teams and washed....he made 4 east finals with the pistons from 03-06 during a era where the east on offense was ass so his d stood out...hes a borderline hall of famer
Detroit Pistons were phenomenal that year. I'm a Laker fan but I give those guys respect. I hold Kobe accountable for his performance but sadly people only seem to remember that and not what Ben was doing to Shaq or even what Rip was doing to Gary. They were just a better team. Simple as that. I miss basketball of back then.
You said it me too but at least it hasn't totally changed to a different game like nfl
@globalicon2012 As usual? Last time I checked he has 5 rings. Sit your dumb ass down.

I love when Ben goaltended shaq he may have got 2 points but the message was clear we ain’t scared of u
one of the greatest finals upset ive ever witnessed. the underdogs won! felt so good!
Big Ben, this man got me interested in basketball, I loved his relentless spirit
I remember watching these finals as a kid. With Detroit being my hometown team, it was awesome to see the talent they had in those years out on the court.
his height was listed at 6’9 but in reality he was around 6’7 that just makes what he did in his career even more impressive
I am glad I get to witness this Detroit team in my life time.
Ben wallace undrafted got many defensive player of year Diamond in rough
Big Ben, gotta love him. One of the best sports years of my life.
I saw Ben take a charge on Iverson in the backcourt; One on one. Iverson was arguably the quickest guy in the nba. Iverson had no complaints. Helped him to his feet and respected the greatness of Ben Wallace then.
Majority of the series Ben guarded Shaq by himself which took away what the Lakers did in the past titles that is playing 4 on 5 cause every team doubled Shaq.. Detroit should've swept them
The coach said in an interview they didn't want to foul Kobe, because he believed in the Pistons defence. Kobe made a 3 pointer thus wining very narrowingly 1 game..... Can't blame the coach, but still a great series. Nearly swept the Lakers in the finals is still not many teams can say.
Five game sweep...
two wallace, prince, billups and hamilton this pistons line up is legit scary
His head is hitting the rimmmmm. This man is unreallllll fiyaaaa
Wow I literally remember sitting here in Detroit watching this game. Throwback
One of my all time faves. Him and Vince Carter forever underrated
Congrats on his induction. First undrafted player in NBA history to be inducted into the HOF. Defensive beast!!!
Why do u say he closer to 6’7 is that without shoes or?
I wasn't much of a sports fan when I was young but I loved basketball and football. Being from Michigan I loved Ben wallace he was my favorite player. The wallace era is the best era of basketball. In My eyes.
Pistons dominated LA. Great year for the Pistons. Big Ben was awesome. Made Shaq look small!!!
i was in a restaurant in LA during this game and everyone was mad at Kobe, my family was vacationing there and we were rooting for the Pistons and everyone was mad at us giving us the stink eye LOL

@4browsing dude arguing with a Kobe fan is like arguing to a brick wall
3:37 The Ben Wallace bell gets me EVERY TIME
I was too young to appreciate Ben back then . He straight balled on their ass ! Kobe and Shaq!
Big Ben was an absolute beast in this game and gave Detroit they're third chip 💪💯👍
Prince had Kobe on 🔒 also. But it was their strategy against the Lakers that was genius.
verdes25 no, the way the executed that strategy, as a team, is the real genius.
The rape case locked Kobe down couldn't pay attention to detail because he scared of washing other men's drawers for 10 cents a day
Tayshaun Prince's arms were too long to shoot over. He had the longest arms on that squad. You don't realize it until you see their championship picture. Kobe was non existent for most of this series. I still can't believe a Lake Show team got their asses handed to them the way they did.
It was Shaq’s team so the loss was mostly on him
Legendary shit
He was so locked in he even killed the halftime interview!
Throw back!!! I remember watching the play offs this year for the first time. That block on Shaq (which is goaltending now) is a memory that made me LOVE basketball
Such a humble dude Damn miss this guy
This dude would thrive even in the modern NBA he was so skilled defensively
Lol he would straight up bully people in this modern NBA.
He would probably average 5 blocks in this era
One of my favorite player growing up watching NBA, big ben monster, he and rodman is the best rebounder of all time
Detroit Pistons were absolutely my team and Ben.Wallace was on there.And that guy was a monster him and Richard said.I couldn't wait till they finally won the championship and they did.They had a good team for a long time
I remember watching this series and all these games, definitely one of my favorite finals from that decade, the 2005 finals in my opinion was the best.
The guy who bullied Shaq, Shaq fangirls must hate this dude. This guy is the definition of true alpha. LMAO
Oh the memories. I teared up watching this. My favorite player of all time.
Magical season! Was lucky enough to be in Indy for game 2 (Prince’s block on Reggie) and at this game! My dad and I are on tv when Darko comes into the game in the 4th!!
WALLACE WAS A DEFENSIVE MONSTER!!!
God this took me back right into 04. It was such a pleasure watching these Pistons play. 84ppg avg against. The game won't be the same as that anymore.
Called by Doc Rivers when he still had a voice. 😃 Congrats on making the Hall, Big Ben.

Aww man I really miss watching Stu call games R.I.P.
this guy literally could guard 1 through 5 and in today's small ball league he would get tonnes of boards and would be a great center
My fav finals. still remember my lakers fanboy classmate's face when pistons dominated in game 6. Best team, best defense, and better foul calling to allow physical contact while keeps the game fluid. Beautiful old school basketball.

Big Ben took this series over. Shouldve gotten mvp over Chauncey imo
Chauncey was solid the whole play-offs and kept consistent for the finals, he deserved MVP. No doubt Big Ben played lights out this game.
Ben Wallace never destroyed Shaq. Nobody did. İn this series: Shaq: 26.6 ppg 10.8 rpg 1.6 apg 0.4 spg 0.6 bpg with 63.1% at age 31 as a best player on his team. Ben Wallace: 10.8 ppg 13.6 rpg 1.4 apg 1.8 spg 1.0 bpg with 47.8% FG at age 29 as a 4th best player on his team. The reason why Lakers lost 2004 Finals is totally Kobe. Kobe: 22.6 ppg 2.8 rpg 4.4 apg 1.8 spg 0.6 bpg with 38.1% FG and 17.4% 3p and 92.0% FT at age 25 and played 46.2 minutes per game Chauncey Billups: 21.0 ppg 3.2 rpg 5.2 apg 1.2 spg 0.0 bpg with 50.9% FG and 47.1% 3p and 92.9% FT and played 38.7 minutes per game Chauncey Billups schooled Kobe in this series, so Chauncey is the MVP.
