If you've not yet done so, please read Shoals's nearly perfect articulation of Ron Artest. As I think about the piece, I like it even more for having been posted during the nation's birthday weekend. Seems like a subtle, even if unintended, ribbing for all of Ron's self-righteous detractors. He ...

Now Is Rasheed's Moment
Straight Bangin' —
... It will be a sad day for me, as I love Roscoe (despite my Pistons-related frustrations) and hate the Celtics. I especially hate that with Sheed and KG, Boston will now employ two of my favorite players from these past 15 years or so. What I don't hate is that Boston will be the most profane team of all time, and in this summer of missing pieces, Roscoe may finally have an opportunity to succeed on his own terms. I wrote a piece about some of these feelings over at FD. Please check it out. ...
My 2009-10 NBA Conundrum
The House That Glanville Built —
... I, just like everyone else, can get frustrated with Sheed from time to time. I always imagined him becoming one of the greatest ever. Perhaps that's selfish of me. But, as Joey over at FreeDarko pointed out, there's a lot to love and appreciate in Rasheed Wallace.

And he has no problem playing second (or third, or fourth) fiddle to his teammates, making the union with ...

pistonsnationblog.com 7/6/2009 — As much as I hoped Rasheed Wallace would go out west it’s not going to happen. Rasheed is going green but not in the sense he’s helping the planet.

I’ve been a Sheed fan for a long, long time. I’ve always been drawn to players that play a little bit out of the norm in their position. I like point forwards. I like front-courts with ridiculous shooting range. I like rebounding point guards. It makes it even better when ...
