kingfish Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 Lol who would have thought it would be Artest carrying us to the championship in game 7. Thank you Mitch for signing him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted June 18, 2010 Owner Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 As much as I hate his chucking, his defense was the poison that really pushed us over the top. He made life tough for Durant and ended up doing a great job on Pierce when it mattered most, not to mention he was ALWAYS poking the ball out of someone's hands, or intercepting it in the passing lanes. Ron worked harder than anyone outside of Bryant, really. He lost 20 pounds since he came to LA (270 then, and he weighed in at 250 today), mainly to calm the pain from his plantar fasciitis. But in the gym, all the time, working on his shot and trying to learn the triangle...good stuff. I'm happy we picked him up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Regime Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 Agreed with everything Brandon said. The thing with Artest is he can have explosive offensive games, but they are extremely rare. You have to admire his energy and hustle though, he doesn't take any plays off and continues to work on other aspects on the game even when he's having off shooting games. Also I have to say he is a true team player, not once during his press conference did he take personal credit for anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
