Ron Artest Throws Trevor Ariza’s Shoe
Think there’s any beef between Ron Artest and Trevor Ariza? While the Rockets were in town last night, Ariza lost his shoe and rather than leaving it in its place, Artest grabbed it and threw it off the floor. You can see Trev just standing there, wondering what just happened. Think he was jealous that Ariza got his ring before the game?

Artest will just say that he was keeping the playing surface clean/safe, but…that’s not how it looked to me. Funny. Especially since the 82-0 Lakers lost. Errr, the 79-3 Lakers. They’re the best 5 seed in basketball.

Honestly, who throws a shoe?

Best part of this is:
That Ron Ron ends up canning a 3 or Ariza’s reaction when he gets his shoe tossed at the end of the replay.

Great Austin Powers reference.

AP – I was hoping someone would get that.
tahir – ha sorry, I’m a fan of the Bulls, so whenever the best looking team in the preseason gets hyped up, I get defensive.
The real story should be the Kings at the 7 seed and the Thunder at the 8 (sorry Austin) over the Jazz and Spurs.
PS, did anyone really think that the Hornets would be a threat this season? It’s early, but…it’s ugly.

@dagwaller
Ask Bush who throws a shoe…
I don’t mind the move. It is all apart of it. If we aren’t going to cry about grabbing of jerseys, hip checks, and the walking up to the freethrow shooter to talk trash, then don’t cry about Artest lightly tossing a shoe. Act like he launched it into the crowd.

That's whats up says:
If the shoe fits, wear it.
If it doesn’t fit, throw it fifteen feet behind you and disrespect the dude who took your place

@ DAGWALLER…lmao!!
boy and to think i almost copped an artest jersey last year whn he played for my boys…heres to ron killing his team and any chance of repeating. then he wonders why people think dude is nuts. and ariza’s reaction was hilarious.
@kudabeen its not tht artest tossed it into the crowds or anything like tht-we are trippin bcuz he tossed it at all and tht fact tht he tossed it away from ariza and off the court. you think its not a big deal…do tht shit at the park at let me know how tht turns out. you will def get yo ass black taco’d out there!

@dr googles

MissChick says:
That’s a veteran move. He should have thrown it into the upper stands however

Aint nothing wrong with what Ron Ron did…that 3 on the next possesion though was filthy.
And why are people talking seeds this early in the season? The PHX Suns will slow down & Sacramento will become irelevant. All while the Lakers get on a roll & the Spurs start to gel as a team. Lots of games to go.

POPPI GEE says:
You would think Ron wouldn’t throw anything considering he knows about things being thrown more than many.
How crazy would it have been had Ron threw it in the stands and it hit a fan and they rush the court like he rush the stands lol.
Enjoy LA Ron, enjoy it.

Chaz says:
I’m not a fan of Ron Ron but he just tossed the shoe off the court to get it out of the way. This headline makes it seem as though he heaved it into the balcony or something. Really not a big deal guys. lol Honestly. (Loved teh Austin Powers reference tho. lol)

ain’t nothing wrong with what ron ron just did. you do anything it takes to win. that means keeping the surphace clean of your opponents shoes. and if you knock it back a few feet and give your team a few extra seconds of advantage, good for you. not all plays can be found in a play book.

the cynic says:
Artest is such a douche bag(in a funny way though), I still wish Ariza was with the Lakers; Artest doesn’t bring anything to the table the lakers didn’t already have except alcoholic craziness

hahns says:
i love how you can describe anything unorthodox as a “veteran move.”
he pulled those guys shorts off as he was going up for a rebound – veteran move
punched the guy in the balls while boxing out – veteran move
throwing opponent’s shoe off the court – veteran move

I think people are making too much of this. Ron Artest is a “Champion” that had a few bumps. I am certain that he Ron didn’t mean anything by this.
Ron Artest, now is the time to elevate your game to the “professional status” that you are most capable of playing. This is no time for any kind of distractive antics. I wish you a most successful season.
