Not great. He's also 1" shorter than George Hill.
His maximum vertical is 29.5" versus Hil of 37.5".
He's also slower than hill.
Definitely not a prime candidate to replace Hill.
With off the court issues that does impact the team on the court, I can understand why you wouldnt want Artest.
I personally dont care tho what kind of person a player is. As long as they can help my team win a championship, I could care less about what they do off the court as long as it doesnt hurt the team on the court.

Let's see we drafted George Hill, have Jacques Vaughn under contract for another year and have one of the top 5 point guards in the NBA who happens to be 24 years old....yet we're flirting with Jannero Pargo? Pop and RC must be reliving that fourth quarter surge Pargo put forth in game 7 of the WCSF because this makes about as much sense as trading Luis Scola to a division rival in order to free up the money required to sign Matt Bonner to a 6 million dollar deal.....hang on that was a bad dream right?
I'm starting to think RC Buford has made one of Pop's vineyards home and is basically running the team while hooked up to a barrel of Merlot....
Thugs beat up people.He is ghetto but I wouldn't call him a thug. I don't think he's nuts, I just think he's not very intelligent(the peanut head I agree with).
He went into the stands and beat on a person.
Thug. Period. End of story.
That would make be a great arguement if it was factually true.makes about as much sense as trading Luis Scola to a division rival in order to free up the money required to sign Matt Bonner to a 6 million dollar deal
What's not accurate about this?
Last summer we trade Scola to the Rockets, then commit six million to Bonner. It wasn't about a payout because the money we spent on Bonner was less than what the Rockets commited to Scola.
I realize I'm arguing with TPark here which is tantamount to playing Monopoly with a barracuda but.....
As usual you have no idea what you're talking about.
What about my post is inaccurate?
Am I in a different dimension where Ron Artest suddenly became "misunderstood" ?
Oh the witty humor making people think your actually more intelligent than a field mouse.
Keep pontificating and telling everyone " the management" and then apologize and beg your way back to the forum again.
You still haven't explained this comment.
Look up the 9 million threads that have beaten that horse into powder the explanation is there.
With an emphasis on the 9 million.
People tend to forget he was provoked (beer in the face). Bad judgement does not make you a thug. The person throwing the beer was more of a thug than Ron was.
I think Pargo would be an excellent pick up for San Antonio for his shooting at the PG position alone.
Pargo is an automatic upgrade over Vaughn. Still think that the Spurs need to get bigger and more athletic on their front line.
Except that he's proven he can play basketball on the pro-level already.
Measurables aside, Hill has proven absolutely nothing on the court and struggled against mostly D-League fodder.
Pargo would be an upgrade over Hill or Vaughn as the backup PG for at least the next year, so I'm for the signing if it happens.
Hill is not quick...He had one of the slowest agility drills in the NBA Draft Camp.
Except the agility drills are more for lateral movement than actual quickness correct? I thought the 3/4 court sprint was a little more telling of quickness - right?
Either way - I can't believe that the Spurs have been mentioned so often this year for possible free agent acquisitions. I know it's been said here before, but there must have been a memo put out to agents to say that the Spurs are interested in order to up their client's market value. Pargo is not coming to the Spurs.
Most of it has been pure speculation by journalists who think a certain player might make a good fit on a championship-contender.
The fact that Pargo's agent said they've been in discussions is a pretty good sign that there is mutual interest.
And as for the whole speed/quickness thing...it's a moot point.
One player has used whatever speed and quickness they have to be a scorer in this league and the other hasn't. I'll take the guy who has experience and has proven he can get alot of points quickly.
Not going to bother, everytime you post itsyou have no clue.
He was wrong, but not a thug.
How did they wait too long for Maggette? Maggs signed with the Warriors the FIRST day of free agency. The Spurs offered him the full MLE during that waiting period before signing day. They couldn't put a gun to his head and make him sign it.And it didn't result in losing Barry to the Rockets. The Spurs just flat out did not want Barry back. Case closed.
In a recent report he called himself "ghetto" and talked about living his "culture" more than other black athletes that Yao has been accustomed to.Not going to bother, everytime you post its
He was wrong, but not a thug.
A man who justifies his actions by saying it's his "culture" and calls himself "ghetto"....that's a thug.
Okay, I'm off my soap-box and back on topic...
Bottom Line: Pargo would be good as a backup scoring PG for the Spurs. He's a better option than either Hill or Vaughn at this point.
Looks like the Spurs have some compe ion for Pargo's services.

Miami Speaks With Livingston And Pargo
With the list of free agent point guards growing smaller by the day, the Heat have spoken with the agents for both Shaun Livingston and Jannero Pargo, according to The Miami Herald. No offers were made, and the team remains in contact with Jason Williams as a fallback option
Moral to this story: Never get too excited about a potential FA signing until there is a signed contract.
It appears the San Antonio Spurs may be going away from re-signing guard Michael Finley. The New Orleans Hornets guard Jannero Pargo could be the choice now.
Pargo's agent, Mark Bartlestein told News 4 Monday night, he is having on-going discussions with the Spurs about Pargo. Bartlestein says his client has the utmost respect for the Spurs and it would be a great place to play. But, Bartlestein says its too early to say Pargo has made a decision.
Pargo is a 6-1 guard who averaged 10 points a game last year.
