[5abi_Xtasy]

"The Los Angeles Lakers made a mistake by signing Ron Artest(notes), and Artest’s presence on the team has opened up the Western Conference to other contenders, Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban told Dallas' ESPN 103.3, as reported by ESPNDallas.com.

"I tell you what, now that they've got Ron Artest, I couldn't think of anything better," Cuban told the radio station.


"If you would have said, what one player—and I'll get killed over this—what one player would you like to see on the Lakers? Ron Artest,” Cuban continued.


"Could you imagine? Ron Artest has got the ball, and Kobe's standing there, 'Throw me the ball.' Thank you, Ron Artest," he added.


The Mavericks' road opener is against the Lakers on Oct. 30"



wat u guyz think..lakerz r gona b EVN betta den last yr since acquirin Artest, or is this gona b a problem for them??!


personally i think (evn though i could care less bout dem, whack @$$ team) dat dere gona b ALOT betta den last yr..dey gave away Trevor Arizia, but got sumone who matchez his skills wid a lil bit more on top of dat. i think Artest is gona add dat "arrogance" and "hunger" for da L.A. squad.

is he gona b in da headlines alot?! yeh of course, but i think b/c hez gona b TOO caught up tryna prove himself to da world n MOSTLY to Kobe.

anyways, wat r ur thoughts

Hahahahahaha...lol mark cuban

first of all, my lakers are going to be a force to reckon with once again. The aquisition of artest greatly helps us in that we have just added an in depth better player to our already strong lineup.

Fisher
Kobe
Artest
Gasol
Bynum

any doubts on that lineup?

Now on to marc cuban,
Marc, please dont say stupid things in public like that. you are just making yourself look like an imbecile. Aren't you the same guy that traded a rising devin harris for jason kidd?..what was the result?..did the mavs win a championship?..umm NO. Also you revolve your team around drik nowitzki, who has proven that he fails when he is given the responsibilty of winning a championship as we saw in 2006 against the heat. So your opinions dont really matter at this point. And to top that, you have said many retarded things in front of the media the past few years as well.. like calling out the commisioner and calling a few players "thugs". Oh and FYI cuban, artest has already stated that he will do whatever it takes to win a championship even if he does have to defer to kobe

the mavericks have no chance this year. I cant wait for october 30 and to see the expression on cubans face when we stomp on the mavericks.
