Metta World Peace Meltdown Imminent

[IronMaxipad]

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. — Metta World Peace might be on the verge of a meltdown, according to some of his Lakers teammates, and coach Mike Brown might be at the core.

World Peace is "walking around all crazy-like. We're just waiting for him to go off," one Lakers player recently told FOXSportsWest.com, speaking on the condition of anonymity.

Added another teammate, also requesting anonymity: "He's always talking about how he should be playing no matter how bad he's shooting, but he can't figure out that when he takes bad shots and misses eight in a row it puts us in a hole."

What's more, a source close to the team told FOXSportsWest.com that Brown wouldn't be averse to trading World Peace — not necessarily because of a personality clash but simply because he hasn't played well.

And that would make some of his teammates happy.

"There are a lot of guys in here who'd just like to see him gone," one player told FOXSportsWest.com on the condition of anonymity. "I think we'd definitely be a better team if everyone didn't have to walk on eggshells when he's around."

Should've amnestied his ass.

[Dunc n Dave]

Everone called it when the Lakers signed him. Kudos to him to making it through 2 seasons before the meltdown. I guess not having the Zen MAster around has brought the old Crazy Ron out of his happy place.

[ElNono]

What I really want to know is what kind of hypnosis Phil Jackson had him on...

That's some zen mastery right there...

[mavs>spurs]

who's ron gonna choke out when he finally snaps? would be hilarious if it were kobe :lol

[pass1st]

Lakers play Hawks next, somebody is getting their jaw broken.

[JamStone]

trade to New Orleans for Trevor Ariza

[mavsfan1000]

All we are saying is give Peace a chance.

[Kewni Leonard]

Real talk, what would you do if he murder/suicide Kobe?

[rayjayjohnson]

I got Ron in an Artest v Bryant throwdown.

Violence > rape ability

Pop bottles

wouldn't even be a fight. an effeminate sissyboy like kobe can't throw down with a real street nigga. shit, chris childs and reggie miller give kobe a run for his money.

[redzero]

trade to New Orleans for Trevor Ariza

How about no.

[angelbelow]

Props to Phil Jackson. Hes probably the only coach in the NBA I've seen properly control these type of characters.

[NewcastleKEG]

Artest is right. That 2010 ''Championship'' was a complete fluke if not blatant robbery by refs

[Girasuck]

You know you suck when that skinny piece of shit runt Spike Lee is making fun of you.

[Calispursfan11]

Homeboy be cray!

[Latarian Milton]

nigga changed his name last summer yet the fags still hold strong prejudice against him :cry

a tiger can't change his strip :cry

Stung, didn't it?

That was the killer. It straightened a lot of wrongs out.

It just foolishly made your front office think you were good enough to repeat & then the Mavs pushed your shit in, Phil walked off in shaME

28 others shit got pushed in as well, your's included.

It was a disgrace on the national level. No one has seen a team meltdown so ruined since the 1991 Pistons

No one will ever forget JJ Barea

Uh, uh, none of that crapola.

You can pull that shit on other Boards you may frequent, New. But, not here, daddy-O. Here we play it straight down the line.

You ended up in last place right along with us and 27 other teams.

[DPG21920]

So what you are say

[Kewni Leonard]

Are you seeing what this fool is saying on Twitter? He's advising Jeremy Lin to buy sailboats. What is the matter with this guy?

[jgome21]

Hey, the Lakers can continue to play Artest ...it'll only help out us Spurs..

[lefty]

Boo-fucking-hoo


What a crybaby

[cheguevara]

meh they will just up his meds and case closed

[Giuseppe]

Hey, the Lakers can continue to play Artest ...it'll only help out us Spurs..

Afterall, Artest is responsible for:::

Kobe: 5

the tired old shit bag Duncan: 4

tee, hee.

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

Who the hell would trade for the guy?

[Giuseppe]

Remember? He bowled a few lines after #16.

tee, hee.

[DPG21920]

Doesn't matter. He got them a ring and therefore was worth every penny and headache that ensued.

[Giuseppe]

^You've learned well, Deeps.

Bowin' at the waist, tip O' the tam.

[LnGrrrR]

All we are saying is give Peace a chance.

:lol /thread

[jacobdrj]

There is 1 other coach, and that is Rick Adleman. I hate him as a game manager, but as an ego manager, is is the best in the biz...

...though he failed monumentally to get CWEBB to side Horry in '02.

tee, hee.

:blah

I wish you could just shut the fuck up every now and then. Can't wait for another Lakers loss because you get so damn mad! lol. That and you don't do this type of shit nearly as often.

Deeps is right on though:::the moment Artest hit that 3 the road to ruin was cut.

You have to live with that now. It's only right. It's only proper. If he had missed it and we had lost, you guys woulda been torturing us the last two years like billy-be-jiggered. & you'd a been righteous.

[baseline bum]

LOL @ this guy's off the wall comments on Lin


As Jeremy lin's manager , I think he should buy a sailboat. Everyday day I will tweet advice to my client Jeremy Lin


I think Jeremy Lin should trademark Allen iversons famous quote"Practice" and wear shades and t shirts and shoes made by Practice...


I think Jeremy Lin should hold his own press conferences daily giving tips.Similar to @KhloeKardashian show. "today i had a cheese cracker"


Happy valentines day.. Come to my Jeremy Lin dedication party in LA this weekend!,, it's going to be bananas.. Too bad he can't make it!,


I think Jeremy Lin is the best point guard in the YMCA and top ten in the nba..


I think Jeremy Lin tells amare to chill and rebound and amare says"please just one shot" joke


Staples center got Jeremy Lin mascots for clipper and laker games...


They should take Jerry west off the nba logo and put Jeremy Lin with a deflated basketball and a cigar with "practice" in quotations

[Reck]

I've always thought this guy was on the verge of a killing spree.

I'm surprise he hasn't gone Columbine yet. I'd be scared as shit too if I was within 10 paces of this guy too. If you look up unstable in the dictionary, his name will be included just slighty under the definition.

[Giuseppe]

Who can forget that putback Vs. Phoenix though? Jesus, Mother Mary and Joseph. Collins, bellowing "NO!"

Ron Artest

[mindcrime]

Always been an Artest fan. From the Bulls to the Pacers and of course while on the Kings. I honestly had no clue just how screwed up in the head he really was. This is some scary shit.

[dunkman]

The Lakers were really signing Peace at ~$35M for +2 seasons. It was always clear he was going to span midway the 6 years contract. It still wasn't as bad as signing RJ, tbh. Peace at least helped the Lakers with the '10 championship . . .

[cheguevara]

Artest actual tweets:


Went 2 Subway and got the veggie delight. How they gonna charge u 4 the sh$t that comes free on all the other subs?

Actually, the only dude whiter than Dane Cook is Carlos Mencia. Nobody tried that hard to be Mexican since the Taco Bell dog.

Dude, they're showing whale penis on History Channel. Reminds me of the time I visited Shaq in the Suns locker room.

Yo I didn't know this city had so many hobos. I just saw 15 bums in 5 minutes, and thats just the Clippers.

Watchin' Armageddon. Wouldn't be easier to teach astronauts to be drillers than drillers 2 b astronauts? This movie sucks. :lol

[redzero]

Those are some insightful tweets.

[dunkman]

Never thought it tbh, but he's right about Armaggedon . . .

[Giuseppe]

. . . you mean the part where they don't want to pay taxes again. Ever.

tee, hee.

Shadowflames speaking the troof as always. +1.

[Calispursfan11]

Btw the name of this thread is an instant classic.

Watch out for that McDonnell reporter guy trying to have team mates go against each other..#hedangerous

Damage control :lmao

[Killakobe81]

Joe Mcdonnell used to be the main sports talk in socal before Mason & Ireland or Rome, Cowherd and the other national shows got play in L.A.

I dont know how "plugged in" he is anymore, because he took a minor sabbatical to get his health (weight) in order. But he is not just some hack ..

[pass1st]

We ain't got issues as long as Peace stays on his meds

Sad but true.

You're still bitter over that:lol

I've never heard of this guy before. Apparently he weighed 740 pounds (http://articles.latimes.com/2010/nov/20/sports/la-sp-plaschke-20101121) at his peak :wow
