Artest`s offence!

Subject: Artest`s offence! Tue Nov 02, 2010 11:59 am

Does it bother any other lakers fan.When ever im watching a lakers game,and they pass it to artest,i get the feeling that theres another HORRIBlE brick coming.

He is a great player,on of the best defenders,but he plays offence like a ball hog,who can shoot for shit.

Last year: 414 % fg...!
This year so far:250 %..!!!

He takes questionable shots. But he doesn't dribble around for days he just takes the shots that come to him...but he's not that great of a shooter so it doesn't work out that much..

The only plroblem i have is,

If he snt a good shooter,why does he attempt some crazy shots?
He good wait to get open..he would still average the same but just more effitently

Artest still cant work the triangle like he should. so he doesnt get many open shots so to score he has to take contested ones.

Artest is still learning the triangle offense.

Subject: Re: Artest`s offence! Tue Nov 02, 2010 3:13 pm

It took Pau a game to do that.

Subject: Re: Artest`s offence! Tue Nov 02, 2010 3:13 pm

Adding on to that... it doesn't take 82 games + a winning play-off run to figure out an offense.

Subject: Re: Artest`s offence! Tue Nov 02, 2010 3:16 pm

Well obviously it does...

Subject: Re: Artest`s offence! Tue Nov 02, 2010 3:18 pm

Or maybe he's just not a good offensive player.

Never was.

Subject: Re: Artest`s offence! Tue Nov 02, 2010 3:42 pm

He probably knows the offense. just doesnt full understand all the dynamics of it. don't forget! ron used to average 25ppg on 50% shotting back in 05

Subject: Re: Artest`s offence! Tue Nov 02, 2010 3:43 pm

He knew the triagle offense in the Finals.

Maybe it does... Gasol adapted to it fast cause he is like...the perfect fit for the triangle. Plus he has high basketball I.Q.

Subject: Re: Artest`s offence! Tue Nov 02, 2010 4:51 pm

Saying he doesn't understand the triangle offense yet is just making him sound good, when it really should be, "Ron Artest does not understand offense well and doesn't adapt to change well either".

Artest's offense should not worry LA at all...

+1.

It doesn't bother me at all. I make fun of his missed dunks and lay-ups. But his offense isn't related to the triangle or lack of uderstanding it.

Artest is a streaky shooter. Has been his whole career.

Subject: Re: Artest`s offence! Tue Nov 02, 2010 7:05 pm

Well , all I go to say is .... is it me or does Artest look so slow during a fast break =/.... he makes me cringe during a fast break oppurtunity =0 .

Subject: Re: Artest`s offence! Tue Nov 02, 2010 7:29 pm

This is a guy I once thought was a great shooter.....

Subject: Re: Artest`s offence! Tue Nov 02, 2010 11:35 pm

Apparently NBA 2k10 and 2k11 think he though. lol.
