Artest and Pau were everything for the Lakers in the clutch. Artest literally saved the Lakers with daggers and game winners in those Playoffs rounds, what a player.
And that's why I always have that 2010 game 7 of the finals in my mobile phone. Just the best finals game 7 of in the past 2 decades. Ruthless Tough D game. 83- 79. Kob 23 and 15 artest 20 anf Pau as well. Just 1 field goal for kob in the fourh. And yes! The artest victory jump after hugging kob!
Yeah it was definitely wild 🤦🏽♂️ Kobe fingers on his shooting hand was so injured that he couldn’t knock down shots but he still came up clutch (as usual), grabbing 15 rebounds too.. Not to mention the defense that was being played back then 🥴 I was happy as fuck for my Lakers 🏆
….ALWAYS was a big Ron Artest Fan, dating back to his days playing High School ball @ powerhouse LaSalle Academy in Manhattan. But I really grew to appreciate him when he led a St. John’s team to the Elite Eight
Damn Artest averaging 29.7 against the blazers, the ejections and the late game woes in finals potential moments if they never happened your legacy enhanced for sure!!
Rom Artest very underrated and underappreciated based on NBA politics in his later years could have helped teams become challengers and championship contenders still will be one of my favorite players that played the game of basketball!
Mecca world Peace should be a Hall of famer and the reason why he always been a great winner on every team he played for the only thing that might stop him is brought out the palace in Michigan but other than that that last championship for Lakers 2010 he made a Lakers win that hands down
Lakers were down big in Q3 in game 7 and calmly came back. It was similar to game 7 against Portland in 2000. The Celtics kind of stopped scoring and it got easier for the Lakers as the game went on. Gasol, Odom, and Artest were great. Gasol missed way too many free throws though. It didn't need to be that close.
That Go Hard mindset will get you if you don't take control of it. He learned from his previous lack of control in crucial moments, AND no one wants to be the guy historically remembered for losing Kobe a winnable Championship. Meta always had respect for real DAWGZ, and he made them know it by his play against them. For Kobe to welcome him...RESPECT!
What’s funny is he came to the Bahamas the year the Lakers beat the Rockets and some of my coworkers told him to join the lakers and his eyes lit up. We knew then that he wanted to be there.
@@jroccdagameboy oh I don't rly disagree with you, in players like Artests case tho I feel it's fair to pump himself as his ability is way above what most nba fans know him for
That malice at the palice doc really changed my perspective on Ron. Like just punch Ben Wallace in the face and get beat up, serve ya little 10 game suspension and kick they ass down the line in the playoffs smh.
@@jamesen6234 his whole team had his back and went all out for him and was the most dominant team, Ron ruined that whole franchise by jumping in the stands, then he demands a trade from team after they still stuck by him. THen he cuts off communication between all his old teammates and goes on to become friends with the guy who threw the beer at him. When the interview the guy who threw the bear he didn’t give a damn and spoke like he would do again smh. All that would had been avoided had he just man up and fought Ben Wallace.
@@6thbr871 I mean I see your point but remember Ron had mental issues so who knows is mindset and reason for handling things the way he did def couldve been handled better tho
My advice to kids....if you want to score 20+ but you are not considered the top scorer on the team.....get your points from offensive rebounds, putbacks and fast break steals. And dont let your defender recover get a second wind by him just standing there even if you not getting the ball keep the gas pedal on your defender so he loses strength by the end of the game, easy buckets
The only problem with TOs point to kids is that most kids who are going to be good enough to play at the next level and beyond are going to be scoring a lot. If you're 10 years old amd you're already a role player, you're probably not that talented. Its just reality
Kobe all the money and different all stars 5 championship Tim Duncan 5 chips in San Antonio wins the correct way with the same team no money, who is better??
It always baffles me how Jordan and Kobe were allowed to get tired and it be a reason, not an excuse but for lebron, it's an excuse, not a reason. Shame in the hypocrisy.
Kobe was playing with 2 separate injuries this postseason. Look at his fingers all taped up when he dropped 23 straight points in Game 5 and the Lakers still lost. When you're that injured you're allowed to cite that.
@@amulyashekhar2999 No you're not. How can people argue guys are better than lebron but not hold guys to the standards yall hold lebron to? If people say no excuses then its no excuses. If you're gonna alow a certain player, reasons, then all players should be afforded that same option.
@@anthonydexter3527 what standards are you on about? You talking about bozos who couldn't dribble the basketball for 10 seconds but shit on every new NBA player on Twitter? Their opinions don't matter anyway. Real ones know the context for every superstar's performances.
Yessir !! Ron Artest has always made an imprint in every game he’s played.
As a Kings fan, I’m happy he was able to win one.
True Champion.

Artest 20/5/5/5
Just seen this! I live and LA.. ur the man METTA! we can thank u!
Ron is a super cool, real dude. Love the way he sets his stories when he speaks. Good energy, good vibe from him.
I'll treasure the memories watching Kobe play irl. 💪💜💛
Man I’m thinking that be Gilbert house

Somebodies grub nice view for sure
I like that couch
@@mattyboy9588 6
Hell nah he stays in my apt building in the valley lol
That was an amazing clip!!! Ron Ron say it louder for all the new Lakers looking to get that chip
Honestly that 2009-2010 Lakers felt like Jordan’s 97-98 bulls to me
Yes! The teams were beautifully built around kobe and MJs scoring.
OMG!!! It really did have that feel at that time, glad to know I’m not the only one who thinks that…
lol no. They were better the year before. That last year was very lucky. Suns should have beat them.
@@VolcardoReviewer bro it was damn near the same roster minus Trevor Ariza 👀 and Sun yue.
@@SabrumBaker I know, what a difference a year makes. Sorta like the Celtics in the 80s. Just a crazy decline after their peak.
This pass from Kobe to Ron and make was Ron Artest moment. You become immortal for us, fans... Ron, you was amazing...
RIP KOBE #8 #24 RIP GIGI !! Man I miss Kobe
That game 7 was wild. I remember it they had to do everything to keep the gap from the Celtics coming back in the final minutes.
Yeah it was definitely wild 🤦🏽♂️ Kobe fingers on his shooting hand was so injured that he couldn’t knock down shots but he still came up clutch (as usual), grabbing 15 rebounds too.. Not to mention the defense that was being played back then 🥴 I was happy as fuck for my Lakers 🏆
@@ChicagoGuy77 did you even see the game. The Celtics was playing crazy physical against him. That was their game plan.
@@ChicagoGuy77 Same on both side lol
Celtics lost and they was stacked 🤮
He really about staying ready 💪 thanks for helping bring a ship home to LA
Always got love for metta
….ALWAYS was a big Ron Artest Fan, dating back to his days playing High School ball @ powerhouse LaSalle Academy in Manhattan.
But I really grew to appreciate him when he led a St. John’s team to the Elite Eight
He should be in the hall of fame. No doubt about it. Hope the voters don't hold his past against him. You know how they be.
Us in Laker land love Ron! Laker for life
That was the year culture shock had finally settled in for me and I got to bandwagon with my brand new city 😉 Laker nation whattup!
T.O. Chill man just ask your question and let the interviewee speak 😂
Tell me about It was waiting for him to stop,he will get better whit time ⬆️

@@Nephromancer3 Well he does love him some him

Haha true tho
idk man i liked his input
Bruhhhhhh I’m dead
T.O. was fine. His boy interjecting during the answers was annoying.
😂😂😂😂😂

Kobe forever
More people need to watch this..

My boy Ron!!!! Y’all call him Metta but I can still call him Ron
Uglahh

He gon beat u up
His momma named him Ron. Imma call him Ron
@@emmanueloppong9778 chill bro u gon get us all fucked up
I read the title as Matt Stafford arrest and I was in shock but I double checked the spelling
Us laker fans really appreciate Ron !!
Sunglasses inside on a podcast is gangsta dawg! You become the king of the short bus when you roll like that son!
Game 7 4th qtr Lakers defense was all time. ALL TIME!!!!
I am big fan of of course Kobe and also world pace
Lakers were down big in Q3 in game 7 and calmly came back. It was similar to game 7 against Portland in 2000. The Celtics kind of stopped scoring and it got easier for the Lakers as the game went on.
Gasol, Odom, and Artest were great. Gasol missed way too many free throws though. It didn't need to be that close.
Artest speech pattern reminds me of Rodman sheeit
Yeah it does. As players I think they differed in that rodman psyched out others and artest was more vulnerable to getting psyched out
Dmx
T.O my man, just ask the damn question lol
That Go Hard mindset will get you if you don't take control of it. He learned from his previous lack of control in crucial moments, AND no one wants to be the guy historically remembered for losing Kobe a winnable Championship.

Queens 🐐
T.O. gotta chill out. We're here for Ron.
LOL ain't nobody touching that popcorn though 🤣
Man really feels himself.
Metta has another new last name alongside Artest? What's the story behind this?
tune in for the full episode tomorrow!
How many times he Gunna add names
T.O hoodie is 🔥🔥🔥🤯
I love Artest but these dudes be blowing up some things. This man said he had 20 in all close out games. He had 20 twice. Finals and the Suns.
Artest has always been a good playoff performer tho. Kings and Rockets both went way further than expected with him leading em
@@juicyeboi9006 That has nothing to do with what I am talking about at all. I am only talking about what he said lol.
@@jroccdagameboy oh I don't rly disagree with you, in players like Artests case tho I feel it's fair to pump himself as his ability is way above what most nba fans know him for
Ron Artest. To Metta world peace. To Metta Sanford artest. What is this guys deal.
Ron was a baller
I’m from NY. So I hated both those effen teams. But man, the Lakers shot a ton free throws in the second half. The Celtics got like zero calls.
All i can say is.. those some big hands
Interview is hectic
That malice at the palice doc really changed my perspective on Ron. Like just punch Ben Wallace in the face and get beat up, serve ya little 10 game suspension and kick they ass down the line in the playoffs smh.

Stop interrupting Ron.
Ron could of had so much more if he woulda of bn on Prozac
True hero metta!
Let the guest talk dam why this dude on the right interrupting
T.O sounds like Gucci a lot .
This dude reminds me of young joe Frazier
During the playoffs "Ron artest".. became "macho man"on James harden 💪😆
Love the flying elbow reference son
Ron always thought he was better than he was. Apparently still does.
matthew need to shut up and let metta talk man sheesh
God dam dude. Cut short your questions and stop interrupting the guest.
Terrl Owens is obviously, like I said, a goat in this biness
Ocho got a blunt in his hand? 🤔
Jordan = Kobe , Rodman = artest , pippen = gasol

Sandiford-Artest? 🤨
Metta Sandiford? “WHO”?
Kobe all the money and different all stars 5 championship Tim Duncan 5 chips in San Antonio wins the correct way with the same team no money, who is better??
I’m glad he didn’t decide to just make up an incredible Kobe story
Credits Phil
No mo world peace
Ron Ron is the goat 🐐
I cannot take seriously a man who changes his name every 3 years.
You don’t have to
Kobe chocked in the game 7 went 5-14. Metta world peace the real MVP!

Nobody cares.... “athletes” are the worse... ‘oh my god’ - were you actually humbled? Good. Get in line
