LINK?

At least add a question mark to the thread title.

From Chad Ford:
Believe it or not, Ron Artest's name has come up in San Antonio. Some believe that given the team's system, he can be controlled and would give them more toughness on the wing, where Bruce Bowen is slowing down. Bringing in Artest may sound far-fetched given the Spurs' emphasis on character and chemistry, but remember that Stephen Jackson was the starting shooting guard for one of the Spurs' recent title teams.

Yeah, um, ddb doesn't need a link.
Do you not remember what his deal is?

A wing defender is all what is missing in Denver.
I think the west will be interesting and it will surely depends on the first round matchups. teams will be very tired coming out of the west.

there are a few matchups I would like to see, like
Lakers-Suns
Nuggets-Hornets
Spurs-Rockets
Jazz-Mavs
NFL fans are now feeling what NBA fans been living for a while...

This is kind of like the Patriots getting Randy Moss.

The Spurs may be nearing a deal for Artest, although it's also believed Denver may finally be willing to give up Linas Kleiza. Of course, my flight from Portland to Sacramento is at this very moment, so we'll see where things stand when I land.

There was an insider who told this board about the Garnett trade well before there was the slightest peep about it in the rumor mill. Same insider who started this thread. He's a cool guy, he likes to share information with us. You'd know all that, though, if you had actually read this thread. So either read it and accept what you read, or be quiet.

Wiggles, not everyone on this board remembers posters' names and their histories; not everyone visits here every day twice a day; not everyone posts 20,000+ times. Asking for a link is not out of line. Chill, please. This is a message board not my life.

I hardly ever post here anymore, so you chill.

If you don't remember ddb's significance from over the summer, then at least read the posts that precede yours in the thread, before you submit a question that has already been answered more or less, on the thread's first page no less.

Artest will go to either Denver or San Antonio. But we all know this by now. all you have to do is turn on your television to learn more about the details.
