the guy is such a cancer. i actually respect t.o. more than this clown.i wonder how much his actions last year cost the franchise . maybe he and sprewell can get together
A-hole, I really hope the Pacers start winning now without him. All the BS we put up with from that moron. We probably wont get shit for him either but bye bye :sadwave:
with all the speculation about him going to the knicks, imagine if Marbury got sent over for him..
that's when the Pacers will guaranteed not win the championship!!

I sure hop he dossn't come here (Heat). It would be a great fit with with the current cast of malcontents/cancers............Peyton, A Wakler & Jason Williams. I get sick of reading about them & their disruptions. Wait until Riley's firm hand gets a hold of that bunch.
Fawkin psycho, now he wants to come back. Someone get this guy some medicine or something geez!! Thankfully the Pacers are having none of it and J.O. said if he comes back its him or me :s4:

Dope starting hearing about the scrub teams that were looking to trade for him and changed his tune.
Thank God the Bulls dumped this maniac long ago. They obviously saw this coming.

I dont think the Bulls saw anything coming. Artest at that time was just a throw in, a salary filler. The guy has Bi-Polar disorder no doubt, I mean get some Prozac already :scared
Oh man, this aint looking good. Team is starting to spin.

It's apparent that Ron Artest's change of heart about playing for the Indiana Pacers won't affect Donnie Walsh's decision to trade the former All-Star forward. The Pacers CEO said Monday that he's in the process of narrowing the list of suitors for a deal.
"Right now I'm looking to see what's doable," Walsh said.
Walsh, who has said he will leave Artest on the inactive list until he can make a deal, reiterated he's not going to rush into anything. The NBA's trading deadline is Feb. 23. Walsh declined to discuss the Artest situation specifically Monday.
Meanwhile, Artest is doing his best to salvage a relationship with some of his teammates. He met with Stephen Jackson and Jermaine O'Neal for about three hours Sunday night.
"It was a very positive conversation," O'Neal said. "We held nothing back. We not only talked about things that have happened this year, but also in years past. He knows what he did was wrong. He understands the situation he put himself in. I was upfront with him and told him the team is upset with him and we're going to move on without him."
A lot has been made about O'Neal and Artest's relationship.
"It's not about me and Ron. Our relationship hasn't taken a hit off the court," O'Neal said. "I want to play with him or against him in an All-Star Game one of these days. I have a lot of respect for what he does on the court. He may be the best player in the league that plays both ends of the court."
While several other Pacers agree Artest should not return, Jackson is leaving the door open for Artest to come back.
"I almost lost my job for him. He's my friend," Jackson said. "I support him. I'll never turn my back on anybody that I played with. That door's always open with me. Just like I have my own opinions, (my teammates) have their own opinions. . . . and we're entitled to that."
Artest has taken a 180-degree turn from saying he wanted to be traded on Dec. 10. He said over the weekend that he wants to return to the Pacers, the team that stuck by him during his 73-game suspension last season.
