 While Trevor Ariza played hard to get and shopped his services around the NBA, the Lakers and Ron Artest both decided his future was in LA and with Kobe and company. One has to wonder how much Kobe's friendship with Ron played in the Lakers decision to move on, but certainly Ron Artest's skills are worth more than the reported 6 Mil a year he is receiving. Hek, Charlie Villanueva just got a 8 Mil per year deal.. Moreover, being able to sign Ron for a reasonable deal, makes it easier for the Lakers to retain the services of Lamar Odom. Or could it be that the Lakers will still sign another player like Shaun Marion or Hedo Turkoglu as a replacement for Lamar who wants a reported 10 Mil a year? Only time will tell. Welcome to the Show...Ron Ron !
