I don't know if you guys have seen this..but this cracked me up bad. Not the song but the tactic which Artest uses to D up his opponent when he was a Pacer <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/S-t_KGpn9fA"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/S-t_KGpn9fA" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>
lol he is one of my favorite players... granted some screws might be a little loose but his skills are undeniable
IMHO it is a pathetic move by artest, The type of defense against Pierce. I hate it when players are not good enough to guard someone, they do stuff to get him out of the game. He was not able to defend him fair, so he tried a stupid trick. I do not like it. It does not show of sportmanship(not that anybody would mistake artest for a fair sporter).
They were probably so shocked that the were frozen for a second. By the time they realized that Artest was pulling Pierce's shorts down, they didn't want to blow a late whistle after the 3 was made.
Maybe he tried to have fun in the moment of frustration. It's not like he's known as a dirty player. He plays tough, but not intentionally dirty.
Why are people getting mad about it. He was just having fun during the game. Would you rather have Artest pull your shorts down out of frustration or hit you or give you a hard foul out of frustration? I would much rather have the first one
