Ron Artest interviews Kobe Bryant
The Lakers Nation —
This is pretty awesome. Artest and Kobe sat down for a very entertaining interview. It really makes me want Ron Artest to come over this summer (Get Artest?). But seriously, watch this:
Ron Artest Interviews Kobe Bryant
You Been Blinded - Now in Dazzling HD —
When I first read that Artest was gonna interview Kobe I pictured some uncomfortable, fake conversation between to jocks playing nice for the cameras. There is a little of that, but there’s also a real mutual respect between Kobe ...
Newest BDSSP Hire Ron Artest Interviews Kobe
AwfulAnnouncing —
Here's Artest's first interview for the Best Damn Sports Show Period with Kobe (via YBB).... Not bad.....not bad at all. I think I'd rather have Ron Artest out at the Conference Finals (a la Mike Bivens for TNT), and there's a little too much fawning at the end for my tastes, but good first interview. In other news, Kobe is saying that he really jumped that pool of snakes. Riiiiiight. Ron Artest Interviews Kobe Bryant (You Been Blinded)
Kobe’s Been Awfully Busy
Intentional Foul —
Apparently, when you become MVP of the NBA, you develop a tendency to show up. Everywhere. Just ask Kobe Bean. Before he won the award, he was making headlines with the viral video of him jumping over the Aston Martin. Now we have a new video of Kobe and some of the Jackass crew. Something about snakes, portable swimming pools and broad jumps being involved.
Man, that looked real…
Personally, I like the Aston Martin video better and I also have a feeling some viewers wanted to see him wind up in the water, especially the Spurs fans. ...
This is just weird
Detroit Bad Boys —
... I generally like to pretend the brawl never happened, but I must admit, I’d probably set the DVR for that one (or at least hit it up on YouTube the next day). I’m not sure why Artest is suddenly in the footsteps of Larry King, but his recent interview with Kobe Bryant was an entertaining seven minutes, if you haven’t seen it already. ...
Ron Artest to interview 'Malice at the Palace' cup-thrower?
Ball Don't Lie —
... is hoping to interview the infamous plastic-cup-of-beer-throwin' John Green of the 2004 "Malice at the Palace" brawl. Apparently, Green has already been tracked down and appears to be on board with the plan, as long as he's allowed to wear a helmet and a raincoat. No date has been set, but we'll keep you and your TiVo posted. In the meantime, check out Ron-Ron's recent interview with Kobe Bryant.
Artest to Interview Auburn Hills Beer Thrower
The Sporting Blog —
[image] You can't really call Ron Artest a polarizing figure. Most everyone agrees that he's one of the NBA's top defenders and, on top of that, a certifiable madman. But there's always going to be some debate over what kind of crazy Ron Ron is. Is he a thuggish menace to society, a weirdo who lives in his own little world, or some of both? Certainly, this latest Artest episode supports the more mild version of things. According to Kings Blog ...
Ron Artest Wants to Interview the Beer Tossing Guy from the Palace Brawl
FanHouse —
Filed under: Pacers, Kings, NBA Media Watch, NBA Rumors, NBA VideosIt should not have taken this long to give Ron Artest creative control over a camera. So big ups to BDSSP for getting him on the hook for his interview with John Green, the guy who threw beer all over Artest in the Garden and sparked the downfall of the entire Pacers organization one of the most memorable fights in sports history. (Via DBB) As the continuing radio career of the Kings small forward continues, Artest is now hoping to interview the infamous John Green of ...
Artest May Have a Future in This Media Game
The Sporting Blog —
... with his aggressive drives to the basket and his playing making ability, Artest said, "When we played together ... that's the only Lamar I know." He shouted encouragement to Odom throughout the entire game, especially in the second half, when Odom reverted to his passive ways. "He's got to shoot the ball," Artest said. One, this a heartbreaking angle on the ongoing mystery that is Lamar Odom, who still transfixes a lot of people who should know better. But, like Ron Ron's recent forays into journalism , it shows that Artest likes to talk hoops and has a unique take on the ...
Making The Case For Ron Artest In LA

[image] Let me preface this blog by stating that it’s not meant as a slant against Kurt and Forum Blue and Gold. I visit Kurt’s blog daily and he definitely knows his hoops. A few days ago, Kurt from Forum Blue and Gold ...
Ron Artest update: Agent news, name news, Kobe love
The Lakers Nation —
This whole Artest situation keeps getting more crazy. How, you ask? Well for starters, Ron has changed his name. On top of that, little things like trade pieces, his ex-agent who isn’t, and other stuff is simplified in this post. In other words, check it out:
Artest told ESPN that he is now his own agent, that was news to his still-current agent, Mark Stevens. The SacBee also reports Odom is still available should the Kings want him. Hmm.
Artest wants to go by his middle name of “Bill”
Lastly, a repost, but don’t forget Artest respects Kobe; he’s a big ...
Ron Artest Will Play For Kobe Bryant
The Basketball Jones —
LA. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. If Los Angeles can swing Lamar Odom for Ron Artest and Kenny Thomas’s contract, they should do it in a heartbeat. Ron Ron has gone a little nuts the past couple weeks, as he always does, but this was a far more mature temper tantrum. Artest is older, wiser, ...
Quick Thursday NBA Link No. 3: Ron Artest, Singing and Interviewing
ESPNtheMag.com - MagDaily —
Word association: Rick Adelman. We asked our friend this and he said, "Bust." Eh. Talented Blazers teams = never won. Talented Kings teams = never won. Talented Rockets team = please get out of the first round tonight at home. If Brandon Roy starts going hot fire, we know Ron Artest's backup plan: "pants" him and then sing him an apology. (Click that, it's funny.) Now, if they do advance, we get to hear all the "Artest and Battier are Kobe stoppers" nonsense (truth: there really is no such thing as a "Kobe-stopper," just "Kobe-containers"), but the most interesting element of the Kobe/Artest dynamic ...
Quick Monday NBA Playoff Link No. 1: Kobe and Ron Artest In Conversation
ESPNtheMag.com - MagDaily —
This is actually a pretty interesting interview, and it will put this Western semifinal in a new context for you. Watch it. (This is also interesting.)
Rockets and Lakers: It's About To Get Nasty [Nba]
Deadspin —
After losing yet another starter, the Rockets are about to try to prove that they can win without Yao. If Ron Artest can keep himself from getting ejected, they might have a shot. The matchup to watch is the Kobe/Arthest pairing. Artest has been tossed in both games two and three, once for a confrontation with Kobe and once for a flagrant foul. Kobe was also called for a flagrant foul on Artest in game two. "Both teams are just pretty much ready for war," Artest said. "You've always got to be ready to hit, in case somebody hits you. I think both teams realize that." ...
