What is the deal with Artest? How come he is not playing? Is he injured or suspended?

J'Oneal said he wouldn't play with Ron again. Jermaine also said it's either Artest or him on the team, so the Pacers haven't played Artest and are trying to get rid of him.

Actually didn't he request the trade?

Yeah but I think he took it back after he was suspended three games for it.

The guys nuts. Out of the blue for no reason he demands a trade because "he can't score enough in the pacers offense. JO freaked out and the GM suspended him until he's dealt.

On a side not, 5 game winning streak for my boys (don't look at the teams)

Artest is a shitbag, he's the Owens of the basketball world. If I was GM of Indiana I'd have suspended him for the rest of the season. And any other team that is looking at taking him is infor a hassle, the stupid fucker isn't worth it.

Problem is the guy is a great basketball player.
