Oh no. Might as well not watch this season then.

I also never realized that Ron Artest spoke ARGENTINIAN.

Oh hell’s yeah! That’s what I’m talking about. That dude a warrior!

I wasn’t gonna do this because I thought it might be too intimidating but here’s a pic of Ron Artest visiting Hangzhou in China’s Zhejiang province. View it & tremble!

OK, I’m a little worried cause the dude’s starting to dress like Rodman. (No offense you 1.3+ billion Chinese people.)

Poor Ron Ron, he’s not the sharpest stick in the pile. Because of his rep, he gets blamed even when he doesn’t deserve it. But he just can’t keep his mouth shut.

Be fun to watch what happens when he takes one of his really hopeless shots and Kobe goes off on him. Don’t think Ron Ron has forgotten the elbow yet. Crazy folks never forget stuff like that.

Oh really? Wait ‘til Artest opens up that robe then you guys are really . . . No, stop, I don’t want to go there. It is probably just his underoos or worse.

Man I hope he ain’t planning on wearing that for pregame warm-ups.

Hmm.I think i found the definition of “Oppenent”…

ie: Any NBA basketball team that fears a squad composed of Super-stars. ( Such as the 2010 Los Angeles Lakers. )

Though I doubt San Antonio can be considered an “Oppenent”, I think they should at least consider fearing Los Angeles. After all, its common knowledge that super-teams comprised of at least four super-stars are always succcesful in winnning the NBA title.*

note: not really. See 96/97 Rockets and the 03/04 Lakers.

I think those Rockets just had Dream/Clyde/Charles at that point, right? That was pre-Pippen. Their other starters were Matt Maloney and maybe Mario Elie.

Way to call me out there, Gino….lol

That is co-rrect. They did get Pip in 98/99. By then, Drex was gone.

Still, Hakeem/Barkley/ Drex….then the next year Hakeem/Barkley/Pip….? That just aint right (despite the fact that they didnt get anywhere)

by alamobro on Aug 18, 2009 1:03 AM CDT up reply actions

Actually in 96/97, they had Hakeem/Barkley/Drex

In 97/98 they were forced to make do with “only” Hakeem/Barkley/Drex/Kevin willis

THEN in 98/99 they Had Hakeem/Barkley/Pip

Id say thats significantly worse than having 4 superstars for just a single year ( in terms of failing to bring home the title)

A few questions...

1. Is this Ron Artest’s actual Twitter account, or does it belong to someone posing as Ron Artest (Laker fans, the fact I am asking this may not be such a good sign).

2. Why did he not mention homeboy Lamar Odom?

And on a serious note…

3. What does he mean with this post? I don’t understand. Does it mean that when the ball is passed to Bynum, Kobe, et al, Lakers opponents will be engaging in sexual activities. I DON’T GET IT!!!

by Gino20 on Aug 17, 2009 11:34 PM CDT reply actions

It’s Artest, all right.

It means the Lakers are going to play with two basketballs at a time this year, so that he can pass it to Kobe and Gasol to Bynum at the same time. The OPPENENTS would certainly be in trouble then.

Man, I get this turrrible, sinking feeling that kind of question is gonna come up a lot this season and the sad truth is nobody’s got an f’ing clue.

Attempt at translation:

If you think you can defend me and you actually succeed, I will just pass the ball to Kobe. I don’t draw double teams, but I know my defender wasn’t on him : ). Another scenario is you having to defend Kobe (because he is really good ; ) ), and then he can pass it to me : ). Hopefully, I’m not defended or I will just pass it back to him : (. Yet another scenario is passing the ball to Gasol who has the option of passing to Bynum. We have so many guys to pass to (like 4 on the court at any given time) that you are eventually going to get scored on (if the shot clock hasn’t run out from all this passing).

Sincerely,
Your F**ked

I guess he signed “Your F**ked” because his audience is not only his opponents but also the world, and he is our f4d.

GOL

BlaseE, this is priceless and classic all rolled up with a bow of awesomeness. I was mulling over a “Your F*&#ed” joke yesterday, but it never gelled and I gave it up. I’m so glad I did, b/c yours is infinitely funnier than anything I was thinking.

This fanshot is the gift that keeps on giving. First we get OPPENENTS which alamobro was good enough to define. Then you chime in with your translation, which has a hilarious feel to it and could be used as an alternative to ARGENTINE — and finally, there’s Artest-speak, which is already a style in it’s own right.

Comment and post rec’d to the land of syntactical delights.

Thank you, I was in need of that help. But it kind of sounds like the orange roundie is going to move around like a pinball on Laker possessions, doesn’t it?
