    I was wondering, maybe this is all in my head, but didn't Hakeem get in trouble for attacking a 7-11 clerk back in the days?

    This happened in his early years in the league. Latter, he got religion and behaved himself.

    I have mixed feelings about having Ron Artest on this team - so I can understand the sentiment. BUt yeah, from a GM perspective, it's just a no-brainer - giving up practically nothing for artest? You do it 100 times out of 100.

    It's like the Bulls acquiring Dennis Rodman. If we want a ring - we have to do it.

    anyway, your feeling most of us wouldn't be agree to, Ron is a ingenuous man, i believe this deal is good for us

    As long as Ron Artest doesn't request another leave of absence to promote a new rap album, this trade might not be so bad. We can always trade him mid-season to another team. He's got a fat expiring contract.
