Sky Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 (edited) If offense and stats are all you care about Yugo then sure. If you are actually interested in winning playoff series and getting a ring then enough is Artest playing man up defense against physical 3's that overpower Ariza. Learning the triangle takes time but he's making good reads and passes, Ron doesn't need to be a scorer on this team.

alcstarheel Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 First 6 games, last year: Ariza: 10 PPG - 5.17 RPG - 1.5 APG ~~ 0.52 FG% - 0.55 3P% - 0.55 FT% Artest: 17 PPG - 5.5 RPG - 2.5 APG ~~ 0.36 FG% - 0.43 3P% - 0.78 FT% ----- Artest is giving us this year what Ariza gave us last year with more points and more assists. The shooting percentages are pretty far and apart but it flows with what Artest did to start the previous year. Looking at Artest's stats from last year to this year his percentages have gone way up comparatively and his scoring has gone down which is expected.
