So much for how the Lakers were going to implode with Artest in place of Ariza. I argued last season that if there was any team where Artest could be reigned in, it was the Phil Jackson's Lakers. Same reason why I think Bosh in place of Byum should'nt be a problem for the Lakers. Heck they didnt even need Bynum to win this. 2 years in a row they have won without Bynum being a significant factor at all. How scary good is that?
Someone in ESPN dime pointed this out. The final few pts of a game 7 in the NBA finals were all scored by nutjobs-Artest, Vujacic, Wallace. what a weird game.
