big ben.

And he(Wallace) only had 5 points, and shot 25% from the field and the foul line. So I guess that Boozer should be considered defensive player of the year also, right?
Z backed his ass down and scored on him easily three times late in the fourth quarter. Wallace had no chance, and if he was so good why did Boozer score so much. I would take Boozer any day of the week over Ben.
But that's just my opinion. I hate one dimensional players.
