Artest wants to be traded...

Quote:
"I still think my past haunts me here," Artest said. "I think somewhere else I'm starting fresh. I'm coming in with baggage but people already know about it and how I'm going to be. Either they're going to be for me or they're not going to trade for me. Here I think my past haunts me.
"I think they will be a better team without me."

Cleary we are the last team he would go to. I think though if the Wolves are serious about trading KG they found a team. Depending on how much the pacers would give up that might make them better.

Re: Artest wants to be traded...

First the JO and Jackson incident, Tinsely trade rumors, Harrison throwing a mini tantram, and now this. They Pacers have it bad.

Re: Artest wants to be traded...

I made this trade in the pacers forum but figured I would post it here also.

KG - obvious
Hassel - rick carlise type player

Artest - obvious
Granger - young talent
Croshere - one year left on deal salary filler
Bender - see above also may retire
draft pick

starting lineup for the pacers

Foster
Oneal
KG
Sjax
Tins

Pretty damn good...

Re: Artest wants to be traded...

I bet those Peja/Artest rumors will be firing up soon.

New travels fast almost every team board has a thread on it.

Re: Artest wants to be traded...

KG and JO together would be nuts, I would love to play that team. That would make the best duo since Shaq and Kobe

Re: Artest wants to be traded...

Ron is hilarious. Every thing he says makes people talk. Just look at the kind of things he's been saying this year and everyone will realize that he doesn't want to be traded.

I agree 100%. He never stated outright that he wanted to be traded. He more seemed to be lamenting the fact that he thinks the Pacers would be more cohesive without him. I think, what it is, is the closest thing to an admission that he has a temper issue. He's basically saying that he would understand if they traded him.

There may be an underlying statement about wanting out within the message, but he isn't being completely overt about it. He's created an uproar without outright saying anything that would alienate his teammates, as I think he doubts it would ever happen.

Although I do admit that Kevin Garnett on the Pacers scares the living **** out of me.

Re: Artest wants to be traded...

Like I said in the Pacers forum...even if Artest is just trying to get his name in the press....this is usually a sign of an upcoming meltdown when Artest does something stupid.....Plus, I think he only wants to play for NY from what I read on ESPN this morning

Re: Artest wants to be traded...

While he never comes out and specifically says "Trade me now", I think he makes it pretty damn clear he wants out of Indiana.

I think it would also be pretty silly for Minnesota to trade Garnett for any package. I don't know if people just haven't noticed, but they are one of the best teams in the west this year.

I had no idea that they were 12-6... good for them...

Artest is a ten year old in a man's body... one hell of a game... one small brain...

Re: Artest wants to be traded...

And now Stan Van Gundy resigns. The teams around us are falling apart, but if Riley takes over this may actually turn out to be a good thing for Miami. at least we won't have to put up with van Gundy's whining anymore.

Damn, beer guy still accomplishing things on the court over a year later.


(not saying it's not Artest's fault, just recognizing a chain of events)
