    Didn't have to be a smart ass...

    Ron does look a LOT healthier than he did before the break.

    Faster up and down the court, more confident on his ankle.

    You are still a smart ass, though.

    I assume you are kidding but in case you are not it's the trade deadline.

    They all want to stay here.

    and if he walks this summer, we're left with nothing.

    he didn't prove to be someone the rockets want to extend right away either. better to get something for him now.

    Rafer is doing great finding open players. Taking the role of T-mac. Being a bad shooter and being a great passer.

    So, if he leaves more cap space. Better to keep Artest if we're trading him for Carter.

    Nice run to finish the quarter. Good to see Artest going at full speed.

    last year they made a trade in on a 10 game win streak... they know to make a good move when it's available.

    they are asking for a package revolving around either Battier or Ron. Me personally I would send Shane

    Artest should stay to give us the 2nd punch, that will be much needed in playoff

    LOL I think even Battier is scared he might get traded. He's actually taken 3 shots and got fouled once...all in the first quarter :D

    Keep Artest! Rafer is doing great without T-Mac.

    We should keep Artest.

    If we don't we'll play the Lakers in the 2nd round and the only way we can beat the Lakers is if Tmac is healthy and motivated to win...and if Artest and Battier can come together to team up and make Kobe shoot a bad FG%.

    Otherwise we have NO SHOT and Carter is another scorer, we can;t out score the Lakers...hell we can't out score ANY team in the NBA we win on defense.
