Big Ben Regrets Leaving Detroit?

Dr. J. Naismith · 12-07-2007, 04:06 PM

He hasn't publicly said so, but you can guarantee a big part of him wishes he'd of stayed there. But what does he care, he's ripping the Bulls off with a horrendous contract and looking like an sub-par NBA player.

Wallace, however, doesn't regret moving on.

"It was my decision, and I stick behind it 100 percent," he said. "There's no doubt in my mind that I was in a great situation in Detroit. I hate to have to quote old sayings, but all good things come to an end."

He should regret leaving. Sometimes I don;t understand people who leave winning/happy/family environments just for a bit more money. I mean, you're gonna get paid either way. Why not just stay someplace where you're happy and familliar with. The grass isn't always greener on the other side.

i think it was more a respect issue for him.
detroit refused to pay him what he thought he deserved.
unfortunately, he (along with the majority of NBA players) have an ego issue and bloated sense of self worth.
he wanted 100 million! how dare detroit only offer 85! what a travisty of justice!

he thought the owners were being cheap, and didnt value him. so he felt unappreciated.
and chicago showed him money and love...
