Ben Wallace is doing plenty of research now into law schools. The thought has been brewing for years, and he even spoke to former Pistons coach John Kuester about it three years ago when Wallace played in Cleveland.

"It would not surprise me at all to see him practicing law," teammate Tayshaun Prince said. "Not at all."

Prince has heard Big Ben go to work with convincing presentations. His most famous speech came in the 2003 playoffs, when the Pistons trailed the Orlando Magic, 3-1, in the first round.

"He is very convincing," Prince said with a smile.
