    Neither, the team is better off without either of them.

    Ron Artest got us past the 2nd round.

    Ariza got us a lottery pick.

    All there is needed to know.

    It's ironic that both these guys played crucial roles in winning the last two championships.

    This poll is unfair.

    Ron had Yao

    Trevor didn't.

    What does that suppose to mean? Was it Ariza's fault that Rockets missed the playoffs?

    It means he doesn't know what he's talking about. School's about to start so don't worry the kids won't be around too much longer

    To answer the question, i would say Ron helped the rockets more in his one year... but he did have Yao and Trevor didnt. But that doesnt matter either, neither were the focal point on our team and neither one was carrying our team. I never liked Trevor from the get go so im happy to see him go. I dont know much about C. Lee but I do remember he did step up for Orlando a few years ago in the playoffs... hopefully it pays off

    What Ariza is winning? Ron took us to 2nd round people.

    that might be the cause, but it doesn't answer the question.

    but it sounds like your answer is my answer: ron had the better season.

    Ron Artest had the better year with the Rockets. The team was more successful (not entirely because of him, of course) and he was a much more entertaining guy.

    That just sum up how unfair about Ariza.

    Rocket was giving Ariza right to shot the ball, which is new for him. Once Ariza plays with Yao while knowing himself better be 3rd option, Who knows?
    Personally, I'm high on Ariza, he will be great fit with Yao. At least, it is save to say Ariza is way better than Lee for helping team win.

    On court, probably slight edge to Ron. Both have good and bad parts.

    As an interview, Ron is much much MUCH more entertaining. Ariza has got to be one of the most boring interviews in Rockets history.

    I'm surprised this poll is as close as it is (edit: actually in Ariza's favor at the moment). I thought Ron was the obvious answer.

    Hard to compare. Artest played with Yao the whole season. Ariza played with Hayes as center.
