Ron Artest is a willing and interested free agent target for both Greek powerhouses this summer, Olympiacos and Panathinaikos, granted he does not find a superior NBA offer on the free agent market

This all goes back to being too greedy, its obvious an NBA championship isnt alot of players main goal.

I highly doubt he leaves, but if he does then so be it.

I bet that if NJ doesn't get Boozer, they definitely make a run for Artest

with what fucking cap? I doubt Houston does a S&T with NJ cause VC is starting to decline and Artest showed he CAN help led a team.

VC beasted last year Pugz what are you talking about. He is still a 20-5-5 player and certainly better than t-pain and ron at this stage. His scoring dropped some but thats become devin has become a all-star.

well, Im a fan of Olympiacos since they are my family's favorite team (yes im greek), they have the money to sign him. The owners are billionaires and are not afraid to spend money.

VC is on the decline, but I didn't say he was a bad player lol. I'd still love him to be on my team. I'm just saying no way Artest lands in NJ.

I would love to see a TMac/VC reunion, but its not going to happen...

As for Artest, I think he'll consider any offer they give him, but he isnt going to leave.

Actually no he isnt. Ive watched a few NJ games this past season including the classic game against the raptors and the game winner against Atl. VC is just as good as ever. He has lost some explosion but thats about it. He is still a top 5 sg in the league and he was snubbed from the all star game. Only shooting guards that are better are kobe,Dwade,Broy and arguably Joe Johnson. But i'd rather have VC over Joe Johnson.

He is on his decline, but he's always been the type of player who will always score no matter what. It could take him three more years before he drops off badly, but he is on the decline for sure.

Also, a sign and trade would mean Artest becomes a 16+ million player lol

Would you agree he is still a top 5 sg though? Thats all i wanna know. I can also say kobe is declining. Ita just a matter of opinions.

I cant agree with that. There arent 5 SG's in the league better than VC. Kobe,Dwade,Broy and arguably JJ. Other than that VC is right there.

But whatever Artest isnt going overseas. This guy is known for dumbass statements and things. Like when after his rookie year he heard that best buy employee's get a 50 percent off store merchandise and he applied for a job there after he heard that.

Not to be biased, but right now I'd take Kevin Martin over VC.

VC's a lil b!tch!!!!! aha jk
I just have some sourness about him and the way he treated Toronto. He's def' the next guy I'd take after Kobe/Wade/Roy/& maybe Ginobili.
