ESPN Scary Good

["hironaka@xxxxxxxxx"<hironaka@xxxxxxxxx>]

The ESPN Mag article (Jan 8th) on Ron Artest is a 
fascinating read about a terrifying NBA player. Here's a 
blurb below, but the rest of the article is just as 
riveting. He sounds like a cross between Michael Jordan 
and Dennis Rodman. This is a guy who applied for a job at 
Circuit City in his rookie NBA year, looking for 
camaraderie and employee discounts. He first had anger 
management therapy at the age of eight (how cute). What 
Paul Pierce can do against him tomorrow night will 
probably decide which team gets blown out.


"What is he doing? The whole league wants to know. 
Artest's own team has removed any "throwable" objects 
from the scorer's table -- and that was before he was 
fined and suspended for three games for chucking all that 
A/V equipment at Madison Square Garden. Teammates 
practice hard because they know if they don't, they're 
gonna get hurt out there. And opponents are just plain 
scared by Artest's arched-eyebrow scowl, his Joe Weider 
arms and his bump-and-run defense. "If there is any fear 
in your heart," says former teammate and longtime friend 
Marcus Fizer, "you will be afraid of that guy."
