Redo the Poll ASAP!

Ok, I can't stand the current poll results on whether to trade for Artest. I originally voted No for a variety of reasons, but after Saturday's semi meltdown I think we, not Artest, would be insane to bring him to Dubland.

After the technical on him for his King Kong imitation, he is taking up his position on the foul line and is still talking to the chick ref and I heard him say to her, "oh, that felt soooo good" while continuing to appear highly aggitated.

So here is your chance to get it right; or not.

Oh, as an PS: let's pass on Miller. He bitched about every call he got or didn't get, and although that would fit well with the Band of Brothers, I think not.

Whether it was fantasy or not, I think I'll pass.

haha

fans outside of the Bay Area would look at the antics of Baron Davis and Stephen Jackson and say the exact same thing about them. I think Artest "belongs" here with Baron and Jackson as much as anyone.

Ron Paul or Mike Huckebee I presume..

CWebb is undoubtedly the answer but I forgot the question.

sooo....

You think a fan base should change it's opinion on whether or not to trade for a player because you think the guy is crazy and don't like his attitude? Well, since I've never heard those words used to describe Artest before, we should do what the commish says and we should change our minds!

Dear Saint

Well, right now the new poll is 50-50 compared to the first poll being 65-35. Artest is an amazing player on both ends. I would love him, in principle, on the Dubs except his instability. Our team is fragile enough.

Anyway, saints outrank commish's so you win.

CWebb is undoubtedly the answer but I forgot the question.

Good attitude

My HS basketball coach would love him. Artest will never give up an easy layup. I saw a clip of him fouling some dude hard (but clean) and screaming no layups to his teammates. Artest is, in my opinion, an unselfish team player.

hmm

i find it strange that we do good with former pacers. especially after they are just given away. oh well i would not mind artest especially he is a a tru warrior. and yes i know people here are like we need help. my idea lets just play back to backs every game because they seem to play great right after one. and i dont know if help is what we need our team is the strangest out of the 30. we can beat anybody any given night and loose to anybody any given night. so if we get help would it even help? oh well just hope monta can keep going and going and going, and save us!
