[@chrissullivan6572]

Ron Artest is Mike Tyson on defense. He leveraged strength,speed and agression with very sound fundamentals to be one of the best.

[@zhugelianges]

Mike Tyson...in some sense I can smell the humor lol

[@muhamadfarhan6707]

You meant like eric cantona? Fight with enemy fans lol

[@crablante7415]

Mike Tyson Don't used defence tbh..
That resulted his first defeat.

[@hanj31]

If he would have come around in the heart of the 90’s he would have multiple defensive player of the year awards and multiple all defensive first teams. Definitely some more all star appearances. He would be a border line hall of famer.

[@drakeripple7581]

Well said

[@kitanyuyun4272]

Ron artest is one of the most underated defender this guy makes the game harder for the offenssive team hes a hell of a MAN!!

[@strugglehighlights2741]

He was hilarious, and a great defensive player

[@zhugelianges]

Yes lol But I should have add the clip he elbowed Harden lol

[@strugglehighlights2741]

zhugelianges lol , true. That was more of a flagrant foul

[@um52]

It was NO coincidence Lakers won the rings in 09 and 10 when they signed Artest. He was their missing piece since Shaq left. Kobe had so much beef with Artest but at the same time wanted him on his team because he knew what Ron brought to the table. Intensity, physicality, and RELENTLESS DEFENSE. Great vid also!

[@MrChrisdwightkim]

Lakers did not sign Artest until the 2010 season - it was Ariza in 09.
But they for sure don't win in 2010 without Artest.

[@dwcdwc8944]

@@MrChrisdwightkim yea but i allways say Artest >>>Ariza

[@oliverbrown9305]

Artest only got one chip with the lakers

[@partaymaster82690]

Exactly like how Jordan wanted Rodman even tho he was a cunt to them on the pistons

[@harrellt1405]

Bynum and gasol already was the big man they needed. Artest was good but i feel like the two mentioned carry the team

[@jasetwells9335]

Man I loved him when he was on the pacers. He had that mentality of “I will die before I let you score.” We needed that type of player when he was the likes of Reggie, Jermaine, Stephen and Foster. And I really believe we would have won it all if malice didn’t happen and really if he didn’t have such a big ego

[@hookleyoak7805]

What's especially annoying is the way he sticks his body onto the opposing player. That really puts off their positioning. Great upload, thanks!

[@zhugelianges]

Not only the body contact, he also has great sense of predicting offensive player's action, I even think his defense is comparable to Leonard.

[@jarenmontaos5195]

@@zhugelianges Comparable to Dennis Rodman

[@The1Mustache3]

@@jarenmontaos5195 yup. Wayyy better than Leonard. Rodman like.

[@user-uh1ji4vq2i]

honestly this is just so good. such good D. challegneing melo before ball and staying in front active hands. physical. just so good. so underappreciated for his D to help lakers win the chip

[@manimal9871]

Ron was the best, I miss this shit in todays game smh…

[@nickfrancois2383]

Notice how he’s forcing melo to his left which is crazy you’d think a prime melo would have a left

[@dibakarchowdhury3201]

Great point. I don’t think I ever really seen Melo finish with the left very often

[@walker68175]

Metta brought a competitive and hilarious personality that was contagious among those championship Lakers teams, and a sense of toughness and grittiness on defense that we don't see every day in the league.
I think he's one of the most underrated Lakers honestly during the b2b Kobe championship runs, alongside Lamar.

[@Mr.Memphis10]

Underrated defender! one of my favorite's defenders.

[@zhugelianges]

Yes, he is so underrated, when he was in his prime, not many perimeter defender could win DPOY back in his days.

[@cjvaye99]

I was so happy when we got Ron. I was a fan of him since his pacers days and always thought he would be a great fit next to Kobe and he was. for one year only he fell off quick but man that one year Ron made all the difference in the rematch with Boston in the finals he played great defense on Pierce and gave us the toughness we were missing in 2008. also the man ran around L.A in his underwear after they won the championship in 2010. Legend 🤣🤣🤣

[@leechrec]

Artest guarding Zion would have been a treat to watch.

[@traceyrhyine5842]

Hated when the bulls traded Ron Artest always liked what he brought to the table

[@zhugelianges]

His defense is underrated, one of the best perimeter defenders all-time

[@mmartinez8439]

I wish he played in today nba he was a very very good player I feel like he would be more appreciated today. A lot of guys have good numbers but don’t really make their teams better. Artest made every team he was on better.

[@dreamsoda897]

Definitely! he could shoot the 3 and could guard multiple positions with his size and strength.

[@TrollfaceDarkBruhLmao]

Best tough guy in our generation😊

[@jwalker3813]

the closest player to rodman we've seen

[@zhugelianges]

Wow, what a nice comparison, bro!

[@da_bachelor]

Artest=Rodman
Kobe=Jordan
And it’s all the same story too. They both got beef with each other but still played and won championships

[@agoogleuser6139]

This game is better than CAVS GSW finals

[@Nhantastic]

Highlights of Melos bricks and airballs

[@BlakeHarper998]

That’s real defense 😎

[@Wickerman2023]

Mosr of these highlights are foul in todays game.

[@slimwon]

Kwahi plays defense exactly like this right now

[@foodaman25]

NBA is soFT now

[@EmilioRebenga24]

Yes because today was the era of the softs

[@TrollfaceDarkBruhLmao]

Light push/hold = ejected in today 😂😂

[@erichughes8723]

Foul! He would be suspended, lol 😆 😂 😂..

[@KL-yi7fg]

Every teammate loves him and every competitor hates him.

You need a guy like that tho lol

legend

[@TwoWay-xX]

This lakers team was stacked

[@Ke3bLeR11]

On that clip at 45 second mark of this video. That play were at the end peace took it to the hole but damn my nba 2k mind is telling me alley oop to Gasol that was trailing!

[@davidbaez3756]

If his rebound avg would been a little bit higher, World Peace would be a hall of famer

[@Realsaltyveteran]

Man this team was HUGE - at pg. I remember getting torched by really good point guards for years 😂

[@mrshowtime991]

World peace baby

[@yungbarkley]

these boys lucky kobe and ron weren’t drafted together. lockdown defense.

Hate when people say Artest was only good defensively from 02-05 he was really good defensively his whole career.

[@zhugelianges]

In 2006 he shut down manu in playoffs when he's on court

[@AgentJ2007]

Cae Bz exactly. He deserved a lot more all-nba defensive team selections. How the heck does he only have 4 all-nba defensive team selection ?

[@somaticexpedition]

@@AgentJ2007 same reasons as Kirilenko aka ak47 only having 3 all defensive teams.....that era had many good defenders from the SF-PF spot

[@shaunbang]

This Nuggets team was stacked. Such a shame the franchise fumbled such a solid team

[@Takedown-Tate]

The reason why the Celtics beat us in 2008 because we had no defense as soon as we required Ron Artest became better team and won a ring

[@zhugelianges]

Prime Artest can even shut down Manu Ginobili...WTF

[@AgentJ2007]

zhugelianges prime artest could shut down even Kobe. I remember he shut Kobe down in one game in the 2006 season where Kobe had 81.

[@weneedhim526]

no, lakers won because of poor officiating

[@raphbayless2973]

[@vishalkarna3763]

metta was one of the top defender league has seen. now seeing defenders in this era, they seem to be so pale gamewise compared to mettas defensive skills.

[@zhugelianges]

Very true.
I always think that defenders in this era are too soft.

[@punchito]

imagine ron in 2022 he would shut down these 3point shooting poosies

[@weneedhim526]

dang, Artest locked down Melo, Manu, and KD, and Paul Pierce as well, but may have gotten away with some fouls

[@lokalpop]

The Great MWP. What a shame he would be avg 20 fouls a game in todays NBA

he owned Anthony in this

Will bear in mind next time

Kawhi Leonard and Dennis rodman defensively had a baby

[@zhugelianges]

Lol that baby would be the DPOY of all-time!

[@davidjenkins6141]

I think they should have kept the rip through cuz if the defender wants to keep his arm out all over the guy then that's on them but at the same time KD and some other wore it out getting to many wack fouls shots with it bit its still apart of the game just get better in defense

[@weneedhim526]

kd is the reason why harden used to learn and abuse the foul baiting system, he learned it from kd, and it got worse with cp3 alongside doing it

[@TobiCreative]

Melo should use screen to switch defense.

[@maltfusion6743]

Kawhi Leonard - You hear me asshole! Greatest since GAry Payton - and Alonzo MOurning.

[@andrebarnes1258]

[@MrNash1991]

Lakers should’ve retired Ron and fishers jerseys for all they did for LA

[@alisalihue5220]

Ron Artest was a great defender, but could not slow down Jordan in his near 40s.

[@zhugelianges]

That's why Jordan is the basketball god.

[@user-ut5to8dp3i]

its jordan dude no matter how good you are in D it doesnt matter

this guy is one of most irritating defenders you can get to play against...they are players that actually take pride in their defense over offence.

[@ellocoo5121]

if Ron come earlier, maybe they won at 08..

[@zhugelianges]

Give the other teams a chance man...it's already so good to have 2-peat in 09 and 10😂

[@weneedhim526]

no, celtics still win 2008 if artest was there, celtics nearly beat them in game 7 and they were battling against the refs too
