Ron Artest update: More trade, name, agent news!

This whole Artest situation keeps getting more crazy. How, you ask? Well for starters, Ron has changed his name. On top of that, little things like trade pieces, his ex-agent who isn’t, and other stuff is simplified in this post.

Artest also made it clear to Stein that he is all for a trade to the Lakers, and all indications on my end continue to show that it’s a real possibility. Lamar Odom is, according to my sources, indeed available should the Kings want him and the Ronny Turiaf situation still plays a part here.

    If they can land Ron to LA without trading away Odom, wow. Mitch may very well be getting that Exec Award next year.

    Bill? WTF he has a middle name? I saw some info on Wikipedia and saw no bill just willaims.lol oh well.
    RON BILL Williams is better than Lamar Odom. Odom had his 3 strikes and now its time to pull him out of the team.=)

    Jamal Crawford might be moved by the Knicks,hmmmm.Good Back up for Kobe?

  15. Gravatar Icon 15 daboss1848

    lol - we cant have every good player available . . .

    Jamal Crawford to play KB backup? 9 mil for a guy to play a max 10 minutes?

    PS . . . William = Bill

  16. Gravatar Icon 16 Bill?

    Can you imagine Lawrence T., the Lakers PA announcer, saying something like this in his normal low-toned voice: “At small forward, from St. John’s University, wearing number 93, ………Biiiiiiiiiiiilllll Arrrrrrrrrrrtest!”

  17. Gravatar Icon 17 Mitch Kupchak

    mannn whatevers. just post it when it ACTUALLY HAPPENS! im tired of all this “rumors”

    btw what happened to GARBAJOSA? did we even sign him yet?

  18. Gravatar Icon 18 vida8

    This guy is crazy !

  19. Gravatar Icon 19 DCLAKER

    It’s called trade,plus for all Artest followers,check what HOOPSWORLD said about him,hahaha.

    AND YES,JAMAL WOULD BE AN EXCELLENT BACKUP FOR KOBE.Put’em in the Purple ‘n’ Gold and watch the “Magic” happen,matter of fact go watch the CROSSOVER he put on Derron Williams,Wade,etc.And I didn’t say trade for him I just said he’d be nice with the Lakers.

    Plus I’d try anything to get Vlad and Luke off this team(Well,at least Luke can facilitate,so on second thought…)and 9 mill ain’t bad when you get SMACKED DOWN by 39!

    there is no way that we get artest and dnt have to give up odom….y would sac want to make us better….we would own the league for the next 5 years…it would be awsome but it will NOT HAPPEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  22. Gravatar Icon 22 lakerschamps09

    ima still call him ron not bill.. but looks like we gonna get him but it looked like we were gettin kg but at least artest dont say the FO has no stability or something like that stupid kg…. sooo lo for artest and thomas or something watever cant wait for it to happen

  23. Gravatar Icon 23 yellowpurplefever

    I like Bill, like “Kill Bill” the movie. Def. it adds Toughness and Kick A$$ kung-fu. If BillRon move to LA he def. needs a new name, new ID, and a new personality(ies) to go with the Glam of LALALAND. Way to go Bill, dump the agent. Look what happen to Clip, they got FALKED! Agents are scum-suckers. Mama Maloof, we need a favor from you “Pls, send Bill down to us and we give you V-lady, Fluke, Mihm, Ira, Mbenga and LA’s own pollution” hahaha

    Thanx for the Childress advice,I have a cousin in Alabama who I had to school about Artest when I said,”You can get 2 or 3 players that are worth WAAAAAY more than Artest” he just said …. “your right” but he still wants Bill-Bill,KillBill,IllBill…I say Chill Pill(yes Pill)with all this crap,everyone is stacking up their teams but LA is soooo fixated and BUTT KISSIN’ this fool.HE SCREWED UP,get over it.

    Ickerfan,and some others as well as my self have been expressing how important it is to KEEP IT MOVIN’ PLAYER mentality,meaning,when one thing fails MOVE ON TO THE NEXT BEST THING….

    Josh Childress(I love The YOUTUBE highlights on this guy,a TAKE IT TO THE RACK DUDE)

    Matt Barnes

    Stephen Jackson

    Desmond Mason(KB/DM/ARIZA/Childress,DUNKFEST ‘08)

    Jamal Crawford(A longshot but would be Perfect for off the bench,always plays best IN THE CLUTCH)

    Tayshaun Prince(A Guru on Defense)

    …and one more player..hmmm.LUOL DENG(The REASON Kobe didn’t go to CHI CITY,now reverse the effect).

    RON ARTEST IS A BLACK HOLE. THATS A FACT. IT WILL BE VERY VERY SAD IF WE TRADE LAMAR’S VERSATILITY FOR A BLACK HOLE.

    jr smith thee most underated player in the nba, perfect backup for kobe

  31. Gravatar Icon 31 DCLAKER

    Ickerfan,here’s where we disagree(but I still repsect your opinions,BIG TIME).In ‘Clutch’ situations Jamal is the guy,like Kobe,Wade and LBJ,who you would to have the ball when it’s 4 seconds on the clock and your down by 1,where as JR Smith is the guy you just want to come off the bench and ‘Trim’ that 15 point lead down some to give your team a fightin’ chance but THAT IS A GOOD PICK(forgot all about’em,thanx).

  32. Gravatar Icon 32 lskerfan567

    kobe would be on the floor with 4 seconds laeft
