Yao does have legit reason to question Artest possible outburst? But should he have done it by talking to Artest personally? Besides, shouldn't coach Adelman be the one concerning about chemistry?

Answer 1

thats why artest SUCKS!!!

Answer 2

i think adelman willl handle artest and theyll get along and win a championship

Answer 3

I would too if I would of seen the replay against the Pistons when he played with Pacers. Anger management! lol

Answer 4

WHO WOULD EVER HURT

YAO'S FEELINGS???

Answer 5

They're good. Everything will work out. Go Raptors!! :P

Answer 6

yao didnt say he sucked he said he was a great player, but he questioned his attitude, artest of all people would know about his attitude. a coach cant control how people work together, thats up to the players themselves, adelman can only hope for the best

Answer 7

When Yao talks a whole country listens. Why shut your mouth when you know what you are talking about. That's just a concern nothing more. And I think Artest should be man enough to accept that, because it's very true that he's got issues with him.

2EZ!!

Answer 8

i think him and yao have solved things when they spoke over the phone

Answer 9

I agree.  

Answer 10

I think they'll jell in just fine. Rick Adelman coached Artest before, so he knows what his plays are.

Answer 11

Ron Artest quote. “If you go back to the brawl, that’s a culture issue right there. Somebody was disrespecting me, so he’s got to understand where I’m coming from. People that know me know that Ron Artest never changed.”

WOW! Houston, we have a problem.

Still willing to get in fights so people know where he's coming from?

I'm glad he isn't a Laker.

Answer 12

This is going to play out like a John Huges movie, "Menace to Society"

Yao is going to say "I feel sorry for your mother". then

Artist is going to say " WATCHA SAY ABOUT MY MOTHER"

and that will be the End of Yao Ming

Answer 13

Yao is an idiot for talking out loud and voicing his concerns to the press right after the deal is announced. This is stupid because he says one of his biggest concerns is team chemistry, yet he blasts a future teammate for a mistake made four years ago. Yao, get it in your head that calling out future teammates DOES NOT HELP TEAM CHEMISTRY AT ALL.

The Rockets will be fine. Ron Artest really wants to play with TMac and he did want to play with Yao until Yao started being a baby, and he really wants to play for Rick Adelman. Plus he's in a contract year, so I think he'll behave.

And the Laker fan who's glad he's not a Laker, you're lying. You wish you had the toughness and lockdown defense Artest brings. See you in the season
