You use to hear about this guy on Sportscenter almost everynight he played because he did something wild like 20 rebounds or 10+ steals or blocks. You don't hear about him and his game has gone down the hole. He was one of the best if not the best defensive player 2-4 years ago but since then he's lagging. What happened? He's only 27, he should be in his prime.

I'ma tell you what happened. See, when he was in Indiana, it wasn't much to do or he didn't have that many opportunites to try the things he wanted to. All he could do was focus on basketball. Now, they done let him go to California. The number 1 party state in america. Now he wants to club, make rap videos, shot movies. He ain't focused. He probally can't wait to practice is over so he can head to Hollywood, or L.A. and hang out with the stars. Partying all times of night, all out of shape, his mind is not in it. Just like Randy Moss. Think about it. Remember how good Randy Moss was. Now look at him. And Sacramento doesn't have that team leader or Veteran, or somebody like a Jermaine O'neal that can get in his face and ask what in the world is he doing. Artest doesn't care anymore man. And the bad thing about it is, I think he plained it. This is the way he always wanted it. He got's to be in a party town. That's why, when he got traded, he said, he would only go to Sacramento, the Lakers, Miami, or the Knicks. He should be ashamed of himself. I'll trade him. For Chris Bosh or somebody like that. Send Artest out of the country. Straight up !!! Trade him for Gasol or Rasheed Wallace while he still has a little value, or if he keeps this up, nobody's gonna want him.

it truly is easily a honest commerce. The Kings are satisfied reason they were given rid of Artest, and the Rockets gave up a first round %. which could no longer be well worth a lot, and Bobby Jackson..whom i'm confident is conscious of ways dinosaurs went extinct... LMAO >.

he probably still is the best defender in the game (hes leading the NBA in steals this year)...he's playing just as well as ever...he'll never be a consistent 20+ points per game because hes just not that good offensively, but the 16 or so that he's putting up now sure aint bad.

well he's on the Kings now but isn't doing very good and the Kings are one of the worst teams in the league.

He plays for the Kings now. They're in Sacramento, so it's not as sexy as, say, LA or even Indiana.

I think he is rattled because he might get traded
