DETROIT -- Ben Wallace left the Detroit Pistons once. He doesn't plan to do it again.

The former Defensive Player of the Year told The Associated Press on Sunday he heard from a lot of teams, but agreed to a two-year deal to stay with the Pistons about a week ago.

"This is the place I want to retire," Wallace said in a telephone interview with the AP.

Wallace, who expects to take a physical soon, will make $1.9 million each season.
Nice, 2 years. It's going t be cool to see Wallace for another 2 years :)

You were right Rip that he is going to retire as a Piston. Really good move on his part to do it this way, I feel it is really classy.

Also hopefully going to help mentor Monroe to become a better defensive player.

I was excited as hell when I saw this haha. Who in the NBA doesn't love Big Ben? Even if he doesn't play a lot like he did this past year, like Rip said, he will be one hell of a mentor for Monroe.
