    I know it's a cop out, but if Pop and RC are comfortable enough with Ron's character mixing with the Spurs, then so am I.

    That said, given that the Kings are trying to get Kleiza from the Nuggets, I don't think we have enough to make this happen anyway.

    Uh, Artest is averaging a respectable 5.7 rebounds a game and shooting 44.6% from the field at 19 PPG.

    How about we don't isolate games from 4 and 2 years ago and concentrate on his current season?

    What's wrong with looking at postseason performance? Are we not concerned with seeing the Spurs win #5 or are we concerned with getting on SportsCenter before the 1st break?

    You can look at isolated games and stats all you want.

    Different ballgame on the Spurs.

    Artest would be the 4th option, not the first or second.


    P.S.

    He rebounds a tad better than Bruce Almighty.

    Sounds like the Nuggets FO is ready to give LK. They realise how good Artest can be and Melo and AI practically begged them to get it done.

    If LK is traded then ill be happy for him to get a starting role. Im assuming it would be a udrih/martin/lk/Williams/Miller lineup............ nice young potential in the 1-4 positions.

    What's your fvcking point, exactly?

    You are extrapolating stats from 2 and 4 years ago on different teams where his role was completely different.

    Do a shot and grow some b@lls.

    Meh. That's not saying much. Bowen, for all of his defensive greatness, has never been a particularly good rebounder. Given that Artest is substantially bigger, stronger, and younger than Bowen, one would expect that he would be a much, much better rebounder.

    I also wonder, if Artest is going to be a 4th option for the Spurs, how it is reasonable to expect that he'll maintain his level of production (actual points scored and such) when he's never shown himself to be a particularly efficient offensive player. I realize that we're drifting into the realm of inefficient players somehow becoming ridiculously efficient when they don't get as many shots, but I think it's a legitimate question.

    In some ways, this idea is one that reeks of desperation more than a move to address true needs.

    With that said, however, I'm with Spurminator -- Pop and R.C. have earned the trust of the fanbase and if they think there's no problem with a move like this one, I can't quarrel with them on that.

    Stupid is not responding to the compe ion all getting better as our team is injured and less effective than before.

    You yourself expressed no faith in the front office being able to rebuild without a high draft pick.

    Stupid is doing something just because everyone else is doing it. Or because some nerd on the internets has a trade fetish.

    Ignorant arrogance is believing you have a right to the le based on what you did in the past.

    Artest has shown time and again that he is not to be trusted. Either jacking up ill-advised shots or going into the stands and beating up random fans, he is a trainwreck waiting to happen.
    Apart from that, Spurs don't really need a defensive minded SF, we already have Bruce and Ime. If he was a rebounding big, it would be a whole different story.
    The bottomline is, do we really want to bring in a question mark player for a role that is already covered?

    Obstinance is pretending that the Spurs can acquire talent by conventional means and would not have to gamble on a so-called "balla".
