Rasheed Wallace often is seen as an irritant.
He revels in knowing that he can verbally get to opposing players, coaches and fans.
Yet Wallace, who is sometimes known more for his bad reputation than his 3-point shooting, believes he knows the boundaries when it comes to chatter on the floor.
"I don't talk about nobody's mom, wife or kids," Wallace said. "I just talk about, maybe that person and their game. There is a line, and I don't cross that line. Like I said, I don't talk about no one's parents or family members, kids, nothing."
