<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Piston bad boy Rasheed Wallace has a special interest in Magic center Dwight Howard, with whom he has chatted before and during games. "I've been doing that with a few young guys that I like. Dwight is one of them. Earlier in the season, I told him we'd been watching him on film, and he really needed to learn how to pass out of double teams. He needed to work on some kind of jumper," Wallace said Friday after the Detroit Pistons practice. "I'm not saying do it now, but maybe over the summer." Wallace said he has talked to Howard several times about diversifying his game and developing a stronger rapport with his point guard. "I look at that team and I think Dwight and Jameer [Nelson] will be here longer than anyone, that's in my opinion. They should get that pick-and-roll down, like a [John] Stockton-and-[Karl] Malone thing, where they are really a threat with it. I told him, 'It could make you a force.'"</div> Source
i hate sheed but i did notice last game dwight attempted an outside shot somewhat of tim duncanisk which was very unusual
<div class="quote_poster">Detroit Madness Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Yeah Rasheed is a just a punk.</div> He is. Hopefully he doesn't teach Dwight to whine to refs after every call, pick up technicals when he throws temper tantrums, or yell at his coach.

You guys can hate Sheed all you want, but it is pretty cool that he has taken a liking to Dwight, giving him tips.
Why are you guys all over Sheed? I don't get it, seems like he's just handing out some advice. Am I missing something?
Sheeds a good guy, you obviously dont understand what passion is about. It's not like he doesnt respect the officials or Flip, he is just a colourful person, he wears his heart on his sleeve, he isnt afraid to voice his opinion or ask the question. I can understand how thats viewed as disrespectful, but thats not the intention. I'm much the same way when I'm playing Basketball, if I dont like a call, I want to know what it was about, I still respect the officials calling the game. Ron Artest, now theres the definition of a "punk".

Are you kidding NTC??? Sheed whines about every call that goes against him. Thats not being colorful or showing passion that is being a bitch... He clearly poked Darko in the eye and he has the nerve to question a foul. Please dont tell me he is just asking the ref a question. The entire Piston team constantly argue and bitch at the refs. Why is it that in the series every call that went against the Piston there is a player or coach whining to the ref. Getting T's isnt respectful either, they are a bunch of cry babies. Duncan, Kobe, Wade, and Nash all play with passion I dont see them getting 30 Tech fouls. He thinks all refs are out to get him. Its that plain and simple. He might be a nice guy offr the court and I know he has been a good influence on Darko but his on court antics are taking away from his game. He is a polished player that needs to act his age and quit whining. People might even put his name with the more notable PF's if he did.

Is Wallace talented? Yes. Is he obnxious and rude? Definitely.
