not worried at all.. as long as the ball and bodies are moving on offense and he takes open looks it's all good... he's not forcing anything and he's taking what the defense gives him.. he'll get it going.. what he's lacking on offense now he's more than making up for on the defensive end
Not worried. He has the hardest part this year, trying to figure out how to fit in. He's never been the 3rd option, and I've seen him make the extra pass when he had an easy shot. He's probably over thinking on the offense.
Not at all. He's a streak shooter for sure but he takes good shots for the most part. I just wished that he would drive more to start out and get some easy buckets first and then shoot jumpers.
Same think I was thinking, I think he needs to play more in the low post and start getting better shots at the basket. I hate when he takes those carzy looking shots even when he make them.
Nope. He'll be a total monster once Battier comes back into the starting lineup. Other team's 2nd unit won't know what hit them.
will anyone refresh my memory and tell me how artest scored in adlemans offence a couple of years ago. high post, pick and roll, 3's, garbage buckets?I don't remember?
Naaa it doesn't scare me but it happens. Truth be told by the way he plays you can tell Artest is not comfortable yet. Give it time. I think once Battier is 100% Artest can come off the bench and be himself.
anyone who is worried about Ron needs to take a look at this video... so what if his % has been bad the past few games Our game vs. Mavs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fB-Qd_v73hg
i think, since he's been playing the role of Battier, which he's not exactly comfortable with, his % has been down. When Battier comes back and move Artest to the 2nd unit, he'll be good.
It concerns me a great deal. I hope he will start playing with some consistency soon. He is struggling to play with two main scorers,which is totally new to him.
Are you kidding? His career % will come through for us soon enough. The guy is trying to adjust to being the 3rd offensive option in this team as well as running circles all night long chasing the other teams best players. He is the new guy trying to adjust to a new environment/teammates. Give him a bit of time and he will adjust. Plus he already had a huge game for us this season. Coach has to find a way to use his abilities where he can be dominant.
