Craziest Ron Artest, Metta World Peace Moments of All-time
- Updated: April 23, 2012
By: Kels Dayton
In case you haven’t seen it by now, the Artest formerly known as Ron (as ESPN’s Neil Everett calls him), completely abandoned his namesake in the Lakers’ win over Oklahoma City on Sunday, decking James Harden and sending him to the floor in an inexplicable move.
Now, I don’t believe World Peace meant to take out Harden; I don’t think he even knew who it was that was kind of-sort-of intruding on his 35 feet of personal space after he threw down with a dunk during the third quarter. But this is just the type of Ron Artest insanity that we’ve seen since he burst into the league in the late 90’s. This is the same guy that pulled down Paul Pierce’s shorts and then sang about it (2nd video). Below are some of Ron’s craziest moments.
