Sacramento Bee: Houston a dark horse for Artest trade

He sucks one quarter against one of the better defenders in the league and your gunna whine and cry about it?

That pass to Yao was weak, but what about the very next pass to Novak? Are you going to say, why didnt Tmac take the shot? That pass proves Tmacs killer instinct.

 

Did you just watch that fourth quarter? Artest outscored our team, and scored 30 points.

Artest always sticks it to the Rockets, maybe he is just showcasing his talent because he wants to play here.

 

I hope your right!

And he can really showcase his rap skillz here in Houston

 

NO WAY...

 

Tmac for atest and Mike bibby

 

as long as artest doesn't end up in denver or other western conference contender teams, i will be happy.......but if he goes to denver we will be screwed and its gonna be really tough for us to make playoffs

 

Yeah, it was a great pass. Novak made the bucket, but McGrady got him the ball.

 

I cant believe artest wasnt running the theus "system"

 

send ron to the east, that is all i can hope for.

 

We wish.

Artest
Bibby

The kings shouldn't say no to that and we shouldn't either

Ming
Scola
Battier
Artest
Bibby

Wells//Alston/Landry off the bench

we have the money to pay artest after he walks synder francis and wells come off books or we can go for agent zero

but that lineup for sure will take us out of the first round and who knows where... BEST D in the league and number one rebounding guranteed with a point that can run the show

 

NO THANKS. one issue with this trade is chemistry issues..

 

Like many posters, he's stating an opinion. Rather than provide a substantive disagreement, you, in your infinite wisdom, decide to take a cheap shot and criticize the person.

For your next magical feat, why not tell us why former NBA greats like Isiah Thomas, Kevin McHale, and Danny Ainge pre-Kevin Garnett are all smarter than an analytical fan. Better yet, why not wait until $Ball gets a team out of the first round before you place him among those that walk on water.
