slt1der 0 Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 They need to come up with a good nickname for Trevor Ariza now. He's doing a really good Michael Cooper impersonation these past two games. Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 You know what would have sucked for the lakers? Trading Odom for Artest. Oh wait, I mean it would have been perfect, my bad. Link to post Share on other sites

MOST impressive. We all know you're a good squad, the question only is, are you a championship squad or not? And Artest over Odom I think is a definite upgrade. Link to post Share on other sites

We all know you're a good squad, the question only is, are you a championship squad or not? And Artest over Odom I think is a definite upgrade.I'm guessing they feel like getting Bynum back, and another year for the young players to develop is more than enough to push them over the edge.

And Artest over Odom I think is a definite upgrade.If they could have gotten Artest for Odom they would have done it, but the Kings were making us take back Kenny Thomas' contract and we'd have to give up Farmar also, so it was never an option. Believe me, nobody is disappointed in the team they have. Link to post Share on other sites

Are you just trying to start trouble? Trading Odom and Farmar for Artest and a bad contract would have been a desperation move, and if you don't think so I don't know what to tell you.

I just think having Artest in your starting lineup is preferable to bring odom off the bench, and think that he's exactly the type of player that would have put the lakers over the top, and instead may have put the rockets over the top. I'm not trying to "start trouble" just expressing my opinion, yikes. Link to post Share on other sites

Poppy_Hillis 11 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 paranoid? who have you been talking too?defensive? the hell you say!!Seriously. Nobody has even mentioned Artest in this thread in like 6 months, and all of a sudden he comes in spouting about Artest as if they could have made a trade recently.BigD, 9 months ago, when they were talking with the Kings about Artest, Odom was their starting 4 and they're expecting Farmar to eventually be their starting point guard. You're not trading those two guys for a guy you're only guaranteed to get for half a season, along with a bad contract. And you speak about "over the top", the Lakers were perhaps one misdiagnosed injury from "over the top." Link to post Share on other sites

The season has now started, and Artest looks outstanding for the Rockets, is why I bring it up. Link to post Share on other sites

Laker fans feel like we have the best team in the league, do you really think we're pissed every day that we didn't get Ron Artest a year ago when there's a good chance he wouldn't even be on the team now.
