At whom will Artest blow up?

[ShoogarBear]

We all know it's gonna happen. Pick the target.

[CubanMustGo]

vBookie material ...

[pache100]

My first blush is Bruce.

[Oh, Gee!!]

don't look PAST the kings.

[ORION]

bibby, because he will shoot too much and then manu because he will put him in foul trouble

[ShoogarBear]

Maybe Kori can convert to vBookie. :lol

[Sense]

I'm hoping a Spurs Fan...


harharh.

Is there any doubt?

[ShoogarBear]

^Oooh, good one.

[angel_luv]

I think having to meet the real DPOY in the playoffs will be too much for Ron Ar test y.


:)

[A-Train]

I think it kinda fits. Artest will go after individuals and objects he is not afraid of. Fans are subject to his rage, but after a substantial conditioning period I think he's not a risk to run into the stands. But mascots are well within the range of his rage.

The Coyote better wear a cup for the 1st round.

[A-Train]

I think I'd have a seizure if the Coyote taunted Artest with a red plastic cup.

[Manu'sMagicalLeftHand]

Missing option: "All of the above"

[shelshor]

I think the first Ren--er--Ronnie explosion will be be at a teammate
I think the first tech will be for barking at a ref
And the first expulsion for an attack on a Spur player

And let's not forget Bonzi Wells is almost as nutso as Artest--and if it goes 5 or more games, we should be asking the same question about Wells

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Guys I think he's going to try to hurt Parker if Parker starts to abuse the Kings with constant penetration.

He's gonna want to knock him off his feet onto his ass. I hope Parker comes out unscathed.

[himat]

We all know it's gonna happen. Pick the target.

Not only did artest mess up in the brawl, but in the 04 ECF in Game 6 the pacers were down 3 with around a minute to go and artest gets ticked and punches rip. We make the tech and get the ball back and pistons get to the finals.

[Mixability]

I'd buy a courtside seat and a beer, aiming straight for his head, but since I wouldn't want to waste a $7 beer, I'd refrain.

Well, THAT and I wouldn't want a lifetime ban from Spurs games.
:spin

I hope this doesn't happen. I'd hate to see Bruce or Timmy (or, God forbid, Manu) get ejected over this. We don't have Big Dog or TMass anymore. We really need somebody like that.

[A-Train]

It's going to happen at some point. Will he punch a ref? Throw the ball at someone's head? Eat a small child?

Stay tuned...

[ShoogarBear]

Well, so far the Kings' coaches and fans are safe . . .

[ShoogarBear]

Missing option: "All of the above"

I also shoulda put "inanimate object".

[RON ARTEST]

Well, so far the Kings' coaches and fans are safe . . .
why start a thread like this? artest isnt gonna blow up at anyone. thats just what you guys are hoping. and if he does i hope he gives tony parker another gash an his fuckin head. :lol

[A-Train]

It must be tough, cheering on the mentally disturbed.

[Vashner]

Get someone on that new 13th on a 10 day. Have him go up to Artest and taunt him all night long "your mamma this" etc...

Getting him thrown out for fighting.. Then rotate back in the 13th..

Abusive? Yes... Funny? Priceless...

[CosmicCowboy]

Some local newscaster needs to "take one for the team" and stick a mic/camera in his face on the way down the tunnel right after Saturdays loss #1 and ask him a really stupid/insulting question...actually it could be very entertaining on several levels...Artest would get tossed for the playoffs and Joe Reinagle would look funny with a camera shoved up his ass...:lol

[Solid D]

Manu will probably cause Ron to go off on one of the refs.

How 'bout on the way INTO the game? That would be better.

[Nocioni]

He already learned his lesson god dammit

Uh huh. We'll see.

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

People said he'd learned his lesson after that cheap shot on Rip that set the Pistons off in the playoffs in 04. Then he was supposed to have learned his lesson after the Palace only to pull the crap he did this year. His temper may flare less, but he's still capable of immature, me-first bullshit and that can only hurt your team.

[Horry For 3!]

I'll go with Referee

[ALVAREZ6]

He's gonna flip out on Bruce or Manu.

[FreshPrince22]

:)

So you're picking the Kings to make it to the Finals to meet the Pistons? :)

[Kings241]

You guys have way too much time to spend over what Artest is going to do. The question is what is Bowen's ass going to do? And how much flopping will that Manu guy perform?

[Solid D]

I see we have the usual mind-numbing arguments today

"Blah blah blah blah Bowen blah blah blahblah blah flopping blah Manu blah blah."

[batman2883]

i hope he blows up on bozi wells, because i know bonzi wont take his shit at all

[1Parker1]

I'm going on a tangent and saying he goes off on.........Robert Horry. :)

[atxrocker]

haha..this thread is pretty funny. this topic and discussion are probably enough to cure my shitty day. you can hope he blows up all he wants, maybe that will prevent him from STOPPING Manu.

[bdubya]

"At whom will Artest blow up?" Probly the first grammar-nazi who gets in his face about preposition usage....

"Okay, who'm I gonna blow up at?"

"Um, Ron, that should be 'At whom will I <ssssssLAP!!>' "

[samikeyp]

Manu.

[Obstructed_View]

None of the above: Artest always blows.

Technically, isn't "up" a preposition too in that context? :lol Just a fun fact: The preposition rule is a myth.

[boutons_]

"that thread title"

Apparently, Real Mean, esp TX men, don't use "whom". :)

"Who is Artest gonna blow up at?"

... is certainly accepted Internet forum vernacular, whoever the accepters are. :)

The self-important and pompous think prepositions at the end of sentences "low" and the ignorant think the proper usage of whom "snooty". We have so much to thank the British for. :)

[ShoogarBear]

Bump-dity-bump-bump . . .

I guess this counts.

samikeyp was the only one who nailed it by being succint.

Alvarez waffled too much, and Solid D, as per usual, gave too much information.

And in the self-ownage competition:

why start a thread like this? artest isnt gonna blow up at anyone. thats just what you guys are hoping. and if he does i hope he gives tony parker another gash an his fuckin head.

For the record, I don't think he deserved suspension. But good ol Ron, he never fails to disappoint.

[CubanMustGo]

I knew this should have been a vBookie!

[polandprzem]

I pick OTHER

Ro ron will dive for a rebound and saves it. Then a mop boy will come and then Ron will blow. WTF do you want? Are you from Stu? Bang Bang slap slap.
Ofcourse Artest will end up with the mop on his head....

[Dario]

Haha, i picked kings fan, because i just knew noone would pick it. I know i will be laughing hard if it would actually happen :)
