I Love Ron Artest.....

Even if I don't want the Heat to get within 1,000 miles of the pending free agent.

Here's Ron-Ron after getting the heave-ho for taking an elbow in the chops from the NBA's most under the radar dirty player, Kobe Bryant.



By the way, the NBA rulebook is VERY straightforward. Strike an opposing player above the shoulders with an elbow foul, and you are finito. Without a shadow of a doubt, Kobe needs to be suspended for Game 3.

NOTE: And Kobe is allowed to play. The NBA says Kobe's elbow connected with Artest's chest, and thus only assessed him a flagrant foul. In fairness, everyone who has watched the Zapruder film numerous times say it's still not conclusive where the elbow landed. But are we surprised that in a coin flip situation, the league chooses not to jeopardize LeBron v. Kobe?
