Rasheed has the talent, but not the temperment

	He could physically be the best PF in the NBA definitely.
however, his attitude leaves much to be desired.  Anyone who thinks Walker
has a bad attitude has never seen Rasheed Wallace.  His play in the San
Ant series was extremely telling. Multiple technical fouls for complaining
to the refs,acting up, etc.  I think at one point NBC's color guy (may
have been Walton) said that the only thing keeping Rasheed from being the
"premier" PF in the NBA is his attitude of. We don't need that type of
attitude here in Boston, even if he is very talented.
