Gerald Wallace: THE GREATEST CHARLOTTE BOBCAT OF ALL TIME | FPP

- He was a high school superstar, who decided to spend a year in college to make sure he was prepared for the pros. After one year spent with the Alabama Crimson Tide, he was a first round draft pick by the elite Sacramento Kings of the early 2000s. Unfortunately, being on a team featuring Chris Webber, Peja Stojakovic, Vlade Divac, Doug Christie and Mike Bibby made it hard for Gerald Wallace to carve out a role. So, he spent the first three years of his career buried on the bench. But once he was selected by the expansion Charlotte Bobcats in 2004, he showed that he was one of the most versatile players and best defenders the NBA had to offer. In 6 and a half seasons in Charlotte, he routinely finished among the top in steals and blocks as he was a one time steals leader, one time First Team All-Defense and was the franchise’s first and only NBA All-star. He first teamed Stephen Jackson in 2010 to bring the Bobcats to their first ever playoff appearance. His time in Charlotte came to an end soon after this and he spent the last few years of his career bouncing around teams like the Portland Trailblazers after Brandon Roy retired and the early Brooklyn Nets with Deron Williams and Joe Johnson. His later career is better known for being a player included in the trade that brought the Blazers the draft pick which became Damian Lillard. Or the massive Nets and Celtics trade which saw the Nets give away everything for Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett. And even though he had a less than stellar end to his career, he still went from a raw talent to being a high energy two way star in his prime. His career is filled with highlight plays and his disregard for his body earned him the fitting nickname of “Crash”, but Gerald Wallace had rhyme to his reason as his aggressive play was always done with winning in mind.

Gerald Wallace was a God on 2K. Jason Richardson too, only reason I'd pick the Bobcats
Gerald green was raw on 2k too
2k now does not give this man his respect 💯
Facts
Josh Smith at one point was LeBron lite in 2K
Life long Charlotte Hornets/Bobcats/Hornets fan and Crash will never be forgotten by me. That man came to work everyday and keep the lights on in Charlotte during during his time here. One of my favorites and will be for the foreseeable future!
As a fan I won't forget too and was MJ like on. NBA Live and 2K
As a heat fan from florida. I lived in carolina when wallace was playing there. He was the only reason the bobcats were worth watching on the local channel back then!
dude you really be going in bro . fr . im born in 97 but love the history . the players you choose are all gems . the monta ellis and gilbert areans hit home . you gotta get elton brand , maybe chris bosh , maybe joe johnson soon lol
Huh no
@@andrewcalean7992 lmao why huh no?
I watched his pre Bobcats career high game in Sacramento when Peja got hurt. Been a fan since the Kings days !!
Gerard Wallace would play great in today's era
He played great in his era too, he just was on b.s. teams or didn't get to play that much.
@@James-ki5ixexactly but Wallace did ball out when he got minutes
Y’all crazy. He would be an excellent 7th or 8th on the bench
@@Jahkingfree7false asf, he gives championships effort so he definitely would’ve been a starter or either a 6th man at max
My boy Crash!! He was so underrated in Portland
Gerald “Crash” Wallace was fun to watch. Put his body on the line a lot and was crazy athletic. One of my favorites watching growing up
Crash was an exciting, explosive player whose potential was wasted alot being under utilized & on losng teams...Miss him, just subscribed...
He was heavily underappreciated.
Should have been in more than just one all star
💯
My Greatest What if. Amazing
Charlotte’s finest! You should do Rudy Gay, Chauncey Billups or Jeff Teague
I'm looking forward to seeing a profile on Jason Terry
I remember him and andrei kirilenko around that time in terms of wings that could produce bigs numbers. Imagine having them both on one team!
Super super athletic and could do it all. Like forwards like him, Shawn Marion, and Andrei Kirlenko who could impact a game on offense and defense.
One of my all time favorites
Props for the Gerald Wallace video! Please do one for Ralph Sampson and Deron Williams.
He was such a a buckettttt
G-WALLACE WAS DEFINITELY, UNDER RATED!!
He was so underrated. I always liked Wallace
Thank you for this one here man.been asking bout him 4 a while bro good-looking.
As a kid, I always wanted to be different with my fandom. Being from San Diego, I was a Colts and Pacers fan, and Gerald Wallace was my favorite player with the Magic being my favorite team. LOVED Gerald’s game, emulated it a bit in my own game with the rebounding and hustle.
I loved this one. You should do Josh Smith and Alex English sometime.
I used to think when I used to see Gerald Wallace on the bobcats like dam if he was on a good team he be easily winning chips
Congratulations your channel is so dope!Really cool to see you're highlighting ballers like Gerald Wallace
CRASH.... Can You do one on Terry Cummings, Mark Aguire
He is the reason why I became a Bobcats/Hornets fan
Crash Wallace 🫡
My player name 2k24😅
My fave player and fave play style thanks for doing this one bro. Dis str8 🔥 keep putting on
Being from the same hometown as him and only seeing him a few times he’s a pretty chill guy but was a beast on the court 2 different personalities 😂
Can you do Alex English or Terry Cummings?
Thank you,🙂 and I like the art work
Even crazier he passed the FBI entry ... the man is a whole dawg
Glad to see the channel growing
G Code Wallace, the GOAT Bobcat. Kemba could score but Wallace played both ways.
Ayyyy.. I requested this once! Good looking out on the Gerald Wallace video!
Very cool, unique channel good video
My man, I know super late for this one. Stuff is crazy right now, a lot going on... But truly a great mention, I really enjoyed watching him! Bobcat Legend!
Do one on John Wallace from syracuse bro.... excellent work my brother... you should be on espn or fs1......
Michael Redd and Ray Felton would be good for this
Used to love the way him and Josh Smith played defense and blocked shots.
Yes great video man
This guy is forgotten easily, underestimate alot. Not only was he an aweso.e scorer but reminds me of scottie on the D-Side and y isnt gis name mentioned like SAC PG Jayson Williams, tgey need to be mentioned more man
Stellar.
This dude used to fly.
woooo thank you!!!
U should do J-Rich or Raja Bell or Richard Hamilton or Joe Johnson or sum
Do Brandon Roy
So nobody else don't remember his other nick name before crash! They called him G Force i always like that nick name
NC stand up!!!
people claim the Kings got robbed by the Lakers & the Refs in '02... the Kings refused to play Wallace in playoffs for 3 years despite being the perfect all-effort 20 minute per night #8 man on the team, then did not protect him... Gerald Wallace was one of the best players from '06 to '12 with good offensive & defensive numbers & elite athleticism... in '06 had 2.5 steals and 2.1 blocks!!! then in '10 had 10 boards at 6 feet 7 inches taking a weak Charlotte franchise to the playoffs... fun player to watch... fax!!!
Soon as they started calling dude crash he started hitting the floor more and more.
Yoooo you know how to pick um. Gerald Wallace was a problem.
Please do shareef Abdul rahim 🙏🏾❤️
Micheal redd ,Brandon Roy ,Danny Granger.
Gerald Wallace was a slashing player who played for the worst franchise in team history. He is an Alabama native who played at University of Alabama. He gave everything that he had on the court and played under former Bobcats owner/NBA great Michael Jordan.
Jordan like others didn't know what he had and the Bobcats haven't been the same. He didn't understand to get someone to play with Gerald. The Bulls did it for him.
Wallace, Jackson and Chandler led Bobcats would beat yo ass.
Hell yeah!!!
You know Cory maggette vid is coming soon
Did you do Kevin Martin or D.Mutumbo yet?
This is who Ausar Thompson reminds me of
If Charlotte bobcats let Gerald Wallace be a starter at point guard position put Raymond Felton at SG and raja bell as SF Boris diaw at PF and tyson Chandler at C they would've been a much better team in my opinion but back then they wasnt letting small forward play point guard position
Good offensive plays happen thanks to people like him who always dive for the ball and go for chase down blocks
Please do Jamal Mashburn if you hadn't yet
He did one on Jamal Mashburn.
Can you please do Jason Terry profile
Josh Smith please
Next do a video on Elton brand!
Gforce
It’s crazy growing up I was very disappointed he was our franchise guy for a while but he did what he could
He was decent
I’m telling you if Adam Morrison would
Have panned out he was suppose to save Charlotte
Jordan didn't know what he was doing. Jordan had help when the Bulls brought in Pip. So, why he couldn't get Gerald help.
Zydrunas llgauskas request
He was a underachiever in the NBA he had 1 good game made all star but otherwise he was mediocre in the NBA
na he aint das disrespect
CRASH!!!!!!
👍🏿🫡
Kobe ended his career
How?
@@Doknot-tb9eyThis clown thinks being dunked on ends careers. It made no difference
@@silewis9396 LOL That is ridiculous.
He was heavily underappreciated.
