CBSsports: Artest Signing With The Lakers

[elcheato]

Mexi does Shannon Brown suck now that he prob not going back to LA?

 

[Lake Louise]

I just think of Artest & Kobe in the Playoffs, and what the physicality. Going to miss that. Although, I dont like Artest, it was entertaining to watch.

 

[I'm With ATL]

Lakers won't win the title.

Yeah no way any West team wins it next year.

 

[Pugz]

Yeah no way any West team wins it next year.

Yea, the Hawks have Jamal now..

 

[A.E]

Next season's star-studded NBA Finals is going to be even more anticipated than Celtics vs. Lakers.

Boy...I can't wait to see Kobe take on LeBron.

 

[The Young One]

Defensively it is a great move. I dont think it will be that great offensively though. Definetly gonna be entertaining though to watch the lakers.

I think you have officially earned the title of SI's biggest hater lol congrats.

I intend on winning that award.

On topic: The Lakers got much better than before, but signing Odom back would really be make them a force that could possibly rival the Bulls of the 90's.

 

[RipCity32]

Lakers won't win the title.

I agree.

So pretty much Artest just replaces Ariza as started. Upgrade, definitely. On both ends for sure. Upgrade personality wise? Probably not.

 

[yezzir]

Lakers do it again...

 

[yezzir]

Yeah no way any West team wins it next year.

I agree.

yeah yeah, ok. coming from hawks and pistons fans. lol

 

[RipCity32]

Because it matters who says it.

 

[yezzir]

it does, lol. and i don't get why theres no way a western conference team wins it again next year. makes no sense imo.

 

[elcheato]

I can pull it a different way too, you're from New York, how does your opinion on the Lakers mean something.

 

[RipCity32]

Ok so next time someone says something about the Pistons I will just say your opinion isn't valid because your not a fan.

 

[yezzir]

ok chilllll, i deff didn't mean to piss you guys off. wow, haha

and i grew up in LA, thats why am i fan.

 

[sheed]

This is why I do not like to comment on this stuff, because everything gets so heated, I like to stay out of that stuff. But I need my 75 posts ;] I like this signing, it shows not every player in the league is greedy. I expect a Lakers and Cavs final if the Cavs can work out the PF situation.

Ken Berger (CBS) says the Ron Artest, Lakers deal may actually be 5 years, around $33 million.

 

[Pugz]
