luckily my fantasy bball team is winning this week, or else this crap would've really pissed me off.

"I don't know what that means," Artest said. "They probably expected a little more; expected me to play every game. Everybody's different. It's early in the season, so I feel like I could take some time off early and be ready for the long stretch."

WTF?

fvcking tool he is.

 

[Linux23]

Wow. Just wow.

 

[Qwest]

don't forget, NOVEMBER 24th!!!

i gotta admit, i am intrigued to see what this album is all about....as bad as shaq?

God, why couldn't the NBA be on a lockout instead of the NHL.

Artest is highly overrated...and how has lost any respect anyone had for him..

Is he a good defender? Absolutely.

Is he a good offensive player? No, not really - he's very awkward driving to the basket, not particulaly explosive around the basket either....

This might be the dumbest thing I've heard about from an NBA player since......well...........anyone?

[machintos]

rap album? I guess he never heard about that other basketball player by the name of shaquille o'neal??

 

[oogabooga]

hahaha he's going to be such a badass rapper, rich, beligerent, and out of touch, w00t!

 

[Imdmn04]

Pacers are fvcked, Artest is the glue that sticks the team together.
Just look at them today without Artest, got blown up by 30+ points by Clippers.

 

[Stark]

Larry Bird must be going nuts about now.

The trade with the kings for Peja makes so much sense too... his game is so off this season. But I guess there's a reason why the Maloof boys don't win championships.

 

[raildogg]

he might be a good player but he is a clown, in a bad way

 

[caivoma]

many of those rap albums are just plain suck. shaq, iverson and now artest, lol.

 

[chuckywang]

BWAHAHAHAA. This is hilarious!

 

[dbk]

I GIVE UP

 

[Qwest]

Since Sprewell claimed a few weeks ago he needs to get paid more to feed his family.
