Roy B Real Baller

I would assume Roy and Artest respect each other, and now even more so. A guy like C-Webb who never really achieved his true potential shouldn’t call out too many people for how they see other players perform.

I don't know

I like Ron Ron’s play and ability, but I’m not sure if we are ready for the mind/attitude. There are times where he comes across very likeable, but other times where I just scratch my head.

Brandon Roy, 'nuff said.

his shout out to "the Streets"

really reminded me of Navin and Dookie from The Wire

Ron Artest is pretty cool.

I had my doubts originally, but he says what he means and he means what he says. I respect that.

I don't think Ron Artest has been fake one day in his entire life

he is just a real dude.

That's right, that's a picture of me with my new bff Joel Przybilla. He said my Billy Idol Karaoke was spot on.

That's a great point

Have to respect that, even if you don’t like what he’s giving you.

thank you prez, the more Ron Artest the better

sadly, I don’t think Portland would be great for him. Rick Adelmen is the only one that can control him

Always loved Artest. Even when he smacked the wrong guy. He had the right intent. Screw Stern.

He may be a little crazy, but in a good way in my mind.

I agree with the others that he is a great fit in Houston.

I don’t think he is saying this because he wants to be a Blazer. This is obviously a guy who speaks his mind, give him a break. Anyway, Portland lacks much of a ’hood, sorry.

He has a good voice, by the way. Got any more Ron Artest videos?

Has TheDreamShake seen it? They and the Kings might be interested too.

I love me

some Ron Artest. I’d love to have him on this team if I didn’t like Webster/Batum so much. Shout out to the Blazers, Nas, & the hood? This is my main man!

I still don't like Ron Artest.

The Kings have the best bench I’ve seen. There are easily 14 guys on this team good enough for every bench in the league. Now if we could only get some starters, I’d totally jizz in my pants.

I like Artest for the same reason I liked sheed

when he was on our team — and throughout their careers: they call ‘em like they see ’em. I loved that about sheed: extraordinary lack of pretense. I know it gets tiresome when sheed says, “both teams played hard” for the 25th time, but it’s like there’s a point being made around their craziness.
I don’t want dope smokin’ and drivin’ on our team. I don’t want guys runnin’ into the stands to punch people out, but a little crazy might go a long way on this team. In the case of sheed: the way he drove those pistons and got them psyched up for that title run, I don’t see that happening without him that year.
In the case of Artest: I think the other team needs to be a little worried about what might happen to them if they try to play you a certain way.
I think this video was right on. I loved the way Artest played Kobe in their series.

I think Artest has good and bad traits, like most people

C-Webb is a mouthy mofo. Every time he states an opinion I just flash back to where he called that timeout at Michigan. Hard to take him seriously even though he’s obviously not a total moron.
