Ron Artest wants to be a Knick
The Pacers have said they will try to trade him. Last week Donnie Walsh said he was one of the elite players in the game (the first evidence that a trade was going to happen).
Lest anyone forget, Artest was on the board when Weis was chosen by the Knicks.
Can the Knicks land him? The answer is yes, but the mortgage will be huge. I would guess that we would need to package QR or JC with Ariza or Frye and another player along with important draft picks. (No the Pacers won't take James' contract).
Isiah will move heaven and earth for this one and it'll be shame when he does. The team will feature Marbury, Artest and Curry and not much else.
But it's inevitable because we are always doomed to foresake the future for the promise of the present.
