Around SBN: Off Tackle Empire interviews Rich Rodriguez

Ron-Ron just gets more lovable

Artest definitely had his ups and downs this season. From appearing shirtless on the Jimmy Kimmel show, to tweeting people to meet him for some touch football, to admitting his "pre-gaming" Hennessey rituals in Chicago, to the mysterious fall around Christmas time, to making a game winning shot game 5 of the WCF, to making the go-ahead three in game 7 of the finals. 

He has most certainly been the character most people anticipated him to be. And by the end of the season, people started viewing him much differently. No longer as the short-fused homie from the hood, but a fun-loving dude who made Craig Sager say "Queensbridge."

As I'm sure most of you have heard by now Ron-Ron was playing dodgeball. Yes, Ron Ron played dodgeball for Team Zankou Chicken. I'm Middle Eastern, so I love the fact that he was wearing the T-Shirt of one of my favorite places to eat, but also, the guy just doesn't care about what anyone thinks. He may be the first two-sport NBA player. MJ doesn't count.

Wasn't it Hennessey @ halftime?

Just because you throw someone a pass, and they score, it doesn't mean you made them a better player.
