Re: Lakers' Ron Artest hopes for trade
[QUOTE=Andrei89]Really? Ron Artest won you the championship last year with a dagger three against Boston and a game winner against Pheonix. Who knows how that would have turned out if Artest did not make that winner.[/QUOTE]
and if Ariza was on the Lakers maybe teh series could have been Lakers in 5 instead of 6. Or Lakers in 4 instead of 6. or Lakers in 6 over the Celtics.
I love how people don't understand that putting away a team early is probably better than making clutch shots. This is the same crap with Kobe vs. Jordan.
People love to talk about how Kobe hit more game winners than Jordan, yet people don't understand Jordan didn't need to hit game winners cause he would own every team in the first three quarters that he wouldn't need to bail them out.
Re: Lakers' Ron Artest hopes for trade
[QUOTE=LakerDefense8]So because he plays on a team that has no offense, you think that is how he normally plays? If he doesn't chuck up stupid shots the Bobcats would get blown out every ****ing night. Him chucking out shots is how those guys are even in games. Because he makes dumb shots. He shouldn't take them, but he makes them.
He wasn't like this in Golden State, Indiana, or San Antonio. Dumbass.[/QUOTE]
You really have no idea what you're talking about. He was a different player earlier in his career and even then he wasn't exactly the high% roleplayer type, ever. In GS he was a gun and you're stupid if you don't think they had any offense but him :facepalm
He's been chucking for years now. Bad shots, poor decision making, but will occasionally have some huge games that you probably watch on Sportscenter and why you think he's so great for the Lakers.
I'm 100% positive you have no idea wtf you're talking about. Then again you're some dude with a Laker handle talking about a player thats never played for the Lakers, and refuses to even describe what SJax's game is like. Same with that Beasley kid :facepalm
Re: Lakers' Ron Artest hopes for trade
Will be hard to find a taker unless they put a good player with him or a team gives up just as bad a contract.

God you're an idiot.
Talk to me when you get a green bar a.k.a never again.
By the way just out of curiosity, were you the fan that Stephen Jackson beat the shit out of in Detroit? Maybe that is where your stupid blind hate is coming from.

Oh trust me you're so wrong in this and i can't emphasize more how sad it is that you have green rep and saying what you're pretending to say now :facepalm
Describe SJax's game to me. I really want to hear you talk about what he does and doesn't do well. So is he a high% team player shooter that doesn't need the ball to do well and can fit perfectly in the LAkers system in Artests place? Get back to me because this is what it boils down to. We can call each other names all day but its not getting to the bottom of you really knowing wtf you're talking about, so by all means go ahead and tell me SJax's game and how he'd be such a great fit in a Lakers uni.
i'm also guessing you voted for Yao Ming and Shaq for the all star game too?
Re: Lakers' Ron Artest hopes for trade
You just cannot draw any conclussions out of anything ron ron says, much less about something that someone else says he said...

He does everything well except for his shot selection and I am sure others other than yourself would agree.

You can do better than that. Lets make this easy. What specifically would he bring to the Lakers in Artests place that would make them a lot better?
you also forgot to mention all of his TO's but you're purposely being general with your replies.
Re: Lakers' Ron Artest hopes for trade
This is serious.. Artest is a head case, especially if things are not going right. Lakers better watchout, he might tackle kobe going for a layup :oldlol:

[QUOTE=kabalcage]Why the Bobcats do it: Luke Walton is a triple double threat on a reasonable contract. [/QUOTE]

The Lakers would go to OT and win :confusedshrug: Let's not forget he put the Lakers in that situation by taking a bad shot with a lot of time on the clock. No one player wins you the championship. Just like no one player is responsible for the Lakers recent struggles.

More mobile, better shooter, better scorer, better passer, better rebounder, etc. The only thing Artest has over Jackson is defense....and it isn't by a lot either.
