Meta World Thug

Postby Bubba » Tue Apr 24, 2012 1:52 pm

You all see the elbow Ron "Meta World Peace" Artest threw the other night, knocking out James Harden? He apologized afterwards and said it was unintentional. Yeah, right. He should be tossed for the rest of the season and fined heavily by the league. He's an embarrassment to the NBA.

Artest plays for the Lakers. He'll get a couple of game suspension. If he played for any other team, he'd be done for the playoffs and out for the first month of next year.

The closeup of the elbow is 25 seconds-in on this YouTube clip

The NBA is an embarrassment in the first place.

Anyone notice his teammates paid him no mind as he's on the floor? They would rather fight.

Maybe we should find that judge that wanted to charge Hockey players with assault for acts like this. Ban him from the NBA and any pro sport in the US and charge him with assault with intent. Bet all the kids that follow the lakers were doing the ole Hi Five over that one.

Metta 7 games suspended, he should have gotten a whole season, IMO.

Yes. The infamous brawl while playing for the Pacers in 2004 I think it was, Ron Artest was his name then.

I watched the video and it was no big elbow hit it was more of a love tap. World Piece tapped the guy with his elbow to let him know he was there and the guy took a dive and then delayed the game faking injury. I would have suspended the guy who claimed to be "injured".
