IF ONLY IN THE SHOWER...

So I know that everyone has heard the news about Ron Artest joining the Los Angeles Fakers… Looks like we’re in it possibly for another 3-peat… But did everyone hear about how the situation came about?

Before Ariza got into talks, demanding more money, it was known that Artest would be an option for the Lakers, regardless of if he was running his mouth about how he wanted to stay in Houston. Truth of the matter is, in 2008, when the Lakers lost to Boston in Game 6 of the NBA Finals… guess who was right there to ask for a spot on the team?

It has been reported that after that Game 6 loss, Artest showed up in the coaches’ room, where he approached Phil Jackson and stated, “I’d like to help you win a championship”… Phil thought it was weird that Artest had said such a comment, especially immediately following the loss.. However, what’s ever weirder is that, Phil til-this-day still does NOT know how Artest had access to that room..

Now it gets even weirder… It has also been reported that Artest went into the players’ locker room, where Kobe Bryant was showering.. It was there that Artest approached the Black Mamba and stated that he’d like to help Kobe win a championship… Once again, til this day, Kobe has no idea how Artest got inside that Locker room… especially since Ron Ron wasn’t even a player on one of the two teams featured in the game… Now, I’ve seen countless comments on this topic, and the most reputable comments consist of fans calling Artest a “fag”… Simply put, why couldn’t he wait until Kobe finished showering to discuss what could unfold… 2 years later?

Haha, I know it’s a useless bit of information.. but I found it to be hilarious, so I just thought I’d share…
