How many of you think Ron Artest will have a SAFE year?

Question

I was curious to see what you guys think about Ron Artests attitude now compare to 4 or 5 years ago when the infamous brawl broke out. How many truly believe Ron has changed and being on a "championship caliber" team will bring out the best in him as a player and a human being?

Please no stupid answers like "haha I think hes gonna punch Yao Ming" s***w those S****y answers.. give me some real insight on what you think about Ron Ron.

Answer 1

Either he really will have matured and will take a second seat to Yao and T-Mac, or he'll demand the ball and s***w up the Rockets.

It'll all be seen the 1st game. If Ron-Ron scores over 20 pts, and Yao and T-Mac don't combine for more than 20, then you know that trouble is brewing.

On the other hand, if Ron scores less than 10 pts, then you'll know that Ron really has matured.

Answer 2

Honeslty, i see Artest s******g up the Rockets franchise than helping it, caz i see Ming and Artest wont co-exist and that goofball artest is gonig to be a child and make some racist azn comments on Yao and he willl be pist and injure artest and he will want to be traded, caausin the rockets to lose a domiant center and a franchise player

Answer 3

i think he will have a safe year..hopefully

Answer 4

Guarded optimism is how I see the situation.  Artest is always great in the beginning.  I heard he already said something negative about yao and then apologized.

Answer 5

I don't think he'll have a one-hundred percent safe year, but I don't foresee anything major. No one can know for sure though. Not even Artest.

Nothing will escalate between him and Yao because Yao's a pansy and won't confront anyone about anything. But Ron Ron himself said he hasn't changed.

Yeah, I didn't even read the blog. I was looking for a Yahoo article I saw a few days ago. The closest thing I could find was that blog with the same Artest quote: "People that know me know that Ron Artest never changed."
