Ben Wallace has won the NBA Defensive Player of the Year Award for the fourth time in five seasons. It should have been five straight years. Seriously.

This season Wallace helped anchor the defense as the Pistons cruised to the best record in the NBA. Wallace finished fourth in rebounding, ninth in blocked shots and 10th in steals.

It must be rough being an NBA Superstar…

“In the next 15-to-20 years, I hope I’ll be the richest man in the world,” Lebron James said. “That’s one of my goals. I want to be a billionaire. I want to get to a position where generation on generation don’t have to worry about nothing. I don’t want family members from my kids to my son’s kids to ever have to worry. And I can’t do that now just playing basketball.”

Umm Lebron, yes you can!
