More to Come but: It looks like Artest to the Rockets

by UofTOrange on Jul 29, 2008 6:31 PM PDT on The Dream Shake

http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/sports/bk/bkn/5914062.htmlI have to say, if this is true, and if Morey gets Artest for Bobby Jackson, a first round pick (which could be in the last 4 now) and Donte Greene, then he is a golden god. I'll write more tomorrow, including why Artest is the perfect...

Things that make me like the Artest trade *more*

by grungedave on Jul 30, 2008 6:09 AM PDT on The Dream Shake

I wake up this morning... only to be re-affirmed in my belief that the Artest to the Rockets trade is nothing short of brilliant, and likely to work out quite well.How is that you ask? Simple.A certain no-talent-ass-clown does NOT like the trade.Which almost guarantees that the trade will turn out...

Ron Artest - Why this guy?

by UofTOrange on Jul 31, 2008 6:29 AM PDT on The Dream Shake

So let me get this bit of information out there quickly. I'm not an Xs and Os basketball guy, yes, I know them, but in my mind, "plays" in basketball work about 4 times a game, and usually they are just where did the screen get set or who gets the ball on the inbound and then who cuts where. My...

Surprise! Sources Say Artest Might Opt Out After All

by Tom Ziller on Jun 17, 2008 8:05 AM PDT

You can never predict what Ron Artest will say next. We all know this. That is probably why, despite two months of "I'm not opting out" talk, we aren't surprised when a report like this one from HOOPSWORLD hits the wire: Multiple sources tell HOOPSWORLD that Ron Artest is seriously considering...

Ron Artest, The Knicks: The Perpetual Question With the Same Ol' Answer

by Tom Ziller on Jun 9, 2008 10:15 AM PDT

It's June, which means it's time for bored New York writers to bore us with the same question they bore us with every June: does Ron Artest want to be Knick? Mark Lelinwalla of the New York Daily News, please do the honors. The critics are still out on what kind of defensive identity the Knicks...

Bevy of Ron Artest Material

by Tom Ziller on May 31, 2008 7:44 AM PDT

As Amick has noted, Ron Artest has been all over Carmichael Dave's late-night show the past week. This page has all the audio, some of which is the typical hilariously awkward Ron type of stuff, and some of which is just hilarious. It's a lot for folks to go through, so if you have any particularly...

The Difference Between an Artest Player Option and an Artest Early Termination Option

by Tom Ziller on May 24, 2008 9:58 AM PDT

(Note: Update at the bottom.) Does Ron Artest have a player option for 2008-09, or an early termination option? It's more than semantics. An option can be picked up at any point between the end of the season and June 30. However, with an ETO, there's nothing to submit in order to stay so his...
