'SHEED WATCH: Saunders said he feels there's little he can do to help Rasheed Wallace delay the inevitable suspension that will come when he picks up two more technical fouls.
"It's a fine line, like I said, for 10, 11 days he didn't get any technical fouls," Saunders said, "and he was playing terrible. He played unemotionally. He's got to play with emotion."
In Friday's game, Wallace asked to be benched when he felt the urge to respond to an official in a way that might warrant a technical. Saunders encourages that.
And he's fine if Wallace wants to take the aggression out on him, as he did a few times last season, causing some raised eyebrows when he ambushed Saunders mid-game.
"It adds more to our saga," Saunders joked.

I think that an NBA rule which is designed to ONLY punish one player ('SHEED) is a bad idea -- in fact I think that it is unjust.
Instead, maybe they should have made the x technical fouls = suspension rule apply only to new players and grandfathered in 'SHEED (like helmets and hockey) because its not like it is going to make him stop getting technical fouls.
or they should just make a new rule where rasheed is called "the grandfather" and has to wear a helmet!!
