Vote: Will Ben Wallace flourish in Chicago?


Ben Wallace
Wallace was the face of the Pistons for six years.
Detroit, SportsNation feels for you.

Motown fans were already in mourning after Red Wings captain Steve Yzerman hung up his skates for good. Then came news that Pistons defensive stalwart Ben Wallace is taking his wingspan (and that afro) to the Chicago Bulls for a reported four years and $60 million.
