aghast - great posts in this thread. i live for 90's basketball. had no idea about oak slapping charles - pretty funny. the artest quote about jordan "not moving so well after that" is pure comedic gold. btw, to reiterate, it's clear from the clip that he's being sarcastic/facetious about roy. inside the nba is hands down the best show on television. no idea why this board whines about charles so much. that guy is great.
true. I do agree that Artest is more a versatile defender because of his size, he can guard the 2,3, and 4. However for strictly guarding 2s, I take Maxwell cause of his speed and athleticism.
Put the hand check rule back in and Artest becomes uber elite once again . Roy drives to the hoop!! Oh no, roy is on the ground..i think he broke his hip!!
Really Jim Rome? Really? Apparently Ron Artest saying this was the worst decision he's made since running into the stands at the Palace. Come on now.
yeah i just saw it. i swear, jim rome is a shock jockey with the writing of some re-incarnated pig that is still trying to work it's wings to fly. As for ron, i think he was tellin the truth. or he was trying to soften up Roy for tonight.
it went something like this: "what about ron artest saying brandon roy was better than kobe and lebron. that's great. huge mistake. *5 second pause*. biggest mistake dude's made since the palace. phenomenal. *5 second pause*. love that guy. expect a huge game from michae....ARRRR brandon roy tonight." i dunno, i didn't hear it.
HAHAHAHA Ron Artest has finally arrived to the Rockets. Took him long enough but he is finally here. This is the Ron Artest I've been waiting for. I hope his game comes along with his mouth.
Maybe Artest isn't just talking about scoring? Involving teammates or something, who knows. but there is more then one aspect to the game then just scoring.
... and I find it difficult to believe Roy excels in any of them by any appreciable margin over Lebron... lol.
Roy is a better shooter than LeBron and that's it. He has passing over Kobe though. Either way Kobe-LeBron > Roy easily.
Charles Barkley face was priceless acepted barkley you was overrated we have won that champion if you don't demand the total control of the offense
So this is Ron.The guy who said "Kobe is the worst player that he has ever seen in the world." I really wonder when he played against Jordan....
I bet all of you all who talk bad about RON are loving him now. He has took this game over! He is not going to let us lose. What not!!!! RON IS AN ANIMAL
