Congrats to Ron Artest for winning championship in 2010

I'm happy that crazy ass muthafugga finally got a ring.

[Yung D-Will]

And he delivered

[NY Comeback]

Fair weather chumps.

And he delivered

In this game tonight he especially delivered. His defense on Paul Pierce was great. A few times they tried to iso pierce and it usually didn't turn out too well.

[Noob Saibot]

i disagree, it was Ray Allen's poor shooting.

[RandomBalla55]

He was deservedly criticized after Game 5 though.

Don't get me wrong, I despise the Lakers, but Artest sucked hardcore before redeeming himself.

Fitting how he made two of the Lakers most clutchest shots this postseason.. the tip-in to beat Phoenix, and the 3 to seal the title.

Ray Allen Choked big time.

Finals MVP goes to Artest, I hope...but it probably goes to Gasol instead. Kobe doesn't deserve the award really. Good job for sticking with the franchise, but heres your EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH award instead.

[PP34Deuce]

It was more Artests offense and overall game mixed in with Paul Pierce baiting into the one on one matchup like Kobe was.

[PHILA]

Indeed, especially considering the abuse he received from the fairweather fans. As a neutral observer, it was nice to see Ron finally win one. At least Sheed won it a few years ago, at the Lakers expense.

Congrats to Artest. One of my favorite players coming through in the clutch. If him and Fisher didn't make those 3 pointers, it would have been a Celtics championship this year. I don't like either team, so it doesn't bother me too much. Artest "sort of" made up for his terrible game 5 or whatever it was. This was the best game of the series, even though Perkins not being there really hurt the Celtics on the glass.

Depending on where the big free agents go, I'm not sure if the Lakers are going to keep Artest around. His defense definitely contributed to them beating Durant and the Celtics, though.

I'm hoping that there's one more ring for Artest.

That and the home court. The four points in game 7 might have gone the other way if it was in Boston.

[AK47DR91]

Artest definitely kept LA alive in the first half...and then that big 3 after Sheed's 3 late in the 4th.

[leopoldstotch]

agreed. artest was the surprise of game 7. it was going to be a split between him and rasheed.

[Babalu]

I'm a lot happier artest is getting his 1st ring over kobe getting his 5th.

He deserved it for how much of his game he had to give up to help us.
