I dont worry about him, he helped the team by defense. He is so nice a team player as well as Yao, not looking for their shots but win. He has team best +41.2 Net-Points-per-100-Possessions while Yao +24.6 Hayes +24.3 AB +5.7 Mac -2.1 So, you tell me, does this scare you or not?
All those will be fixed after shane's returning. Ron doesn't like to play with his teammates because he's "wolfrine" who always ignores storms words when she says" Logan, we must work as a team." Ron enjoys working himself rather than with others, just like he did in sac. (to be honest, tmac is not a teamworker either). Ron should be more efficient if he plays off the bench. the 6th role fits him even more than the role of "Logan".
I am a little worried but I think his percentages will go up. What I am very hapy seeing was Ron Artest and Mcgrady taking more of a leadership role on this team. I also liked seeing Artest playing some time at the four.
Ron Artest has no business creating his own shot, except when theres less than 8 seconds on the shot clock or when he has a really favorable matchup. He should also move without the ball more. the reason why his shooting is so bad is because he would always only do that one dribble to the left jumper, which suks. Stop doing it Ron!
not at all, he is ron artest? he knows what has to be done, and when battier is back he will have a resurgence of confidence fighting for the starting spot.
I think he is not the only one who is in a slump. TMac got out of his slump against the Suns and I think Rafer too. Scola is also in a slump.
I disagree. Ron is much more consistent clutch time. Hell, his only shot against the Suns was a buzzer beater before the half.
Ron Artest defense kind of negates his bad shooting. But Ron Ron was so cold last night he could make every clutchfans member ice-cubes from his sweat he was so cold. His defense was STELLAR last night tho. Barnes didn't do jack, and Artest is one of the main reasons Raja Bell had ZERO points. Artest also helped keep Amare in check, so I am ok with Artest Not having a good scoring night because everyone else around him picked up the scoring slack while he picked up the defensive slack.
nope, his taking good shots, its not like his forcing his shots. But i do hope he goes to the post more. Especially when his playing with the 2nd unit.
You must have missed the suns game, because he jacked up nearly all of them. He's taking lots of ridiculous step back jumpers and spinning shots that look impossible to make. I understand he's having a hard time posting up with T-Mac, Scola, and Yao crowding out those areas, but why doesn't he drive? I think when battier gets back he should come off the bench, to have more room to operate.
