    Artest finally won a le in June after 11 regular seasons of trying ... and now he's planning to sell the championship ring as a fundraiser to put more psychologists, psychiatrists and therapists in schools.
    "I'm never going to put it on," he said.
    Artest plans to soon announce details of what he hopes will become a worldwide auction, and he takes possession of the jewelry in an Oct. 26 pre-game ceremony before the Lakers open against the Rockets. It's an incredible gesture. But it's even more meaningful as a statement.
    "You work so hard to get a ring, and now you have a chance to help more people than just yourself, instead of just satisfying yourself," he said. "What's better than that? For me, this is very important."
    I wonder if Barkley, Ewing, Malone, or Stockton is going to bid.... maybe this is Lebron's only chance of getting a ring

    Lebron can't afford it, not with "the paycut" he took and all the money he gave to charity

    I think it's a great thing he's doing, and I never really expected it from him. Hopefully this act will help many people down the road.

    This is great. He's shown a maturity in the last year that is stunning. I'm glad to see he has come through his life and picked up some compassion and empathy along the way. A long way from sneaking alcohol into the Bulls locker room at halftime.
