Artest: How are you guys doing with him?

Re: Artest: How are you guys doing with him?

At first I thought it was ok but he does need some more handle in the game but I have to admit I love the anti cheese measure.

I can bully with Artest by making measured moves until I can get space to go hard in a direction. Once I do then I go with the hop step or spin and he just bullies he was through. I do agree He should have more handle. I swear he has more acceleration going to the basket than they give him credit for also.

Thanks, Cz. That's really my issue with him. It's not that he can't be effective. He can. I just don't get the impression of that combination of Queensbridge handles, brute strength and awkward delivery that makes him feel Artesty. His pull up game is fine though.
