His full name is Ronald William Artest

He has two children named Ron-Jr and Sadie

In high school, he once Won the title of "All-State Player"

He once played for the Riverside Hawks of the American Amateur Athletic League, and Brand and Odom are now teammates of the Clippers

He Not "Flying Man" Jordan, he is not "Big Shark" O'Neal, he is not "Little Emperor" James. He doesn't have the scoring ability of Kobe Bryant, the tragedy of Reggie Miller, and the gentlemanly demeanor of Grant Hill. In the eyes of NBA Commissioner David Stern, he is not even a qualified player, but he is deeply remembered in people's hearts. Because he said: "I have my own world, and I only live in my own world." Yes, he is Ron Artest, a figure who inherited Dennis Rodman's mantle in the post-Jordan era.

The most impressive thing about Artest is his rough temper. In fact, all this stems from his impatient father and miserable childhood. On November 13, 1979, Artest was born in the Queensbridge area of ??New York. He has been living in the shadow of violence since he was a child. Once, a co-worker had a dispute with his father, Artest Sr., and Artest Sr. rushed up, picked him up, and slammed him to the ground. He also witnessed his father beating his mother many times. When he was 13 years old, his parents divorced. Under the influence of his father for a long time, Artest's temper is very much like his father's. Once a child provoked him in the school cafe, and he choked the child violently. As long as someone laughed at him, he would knock them down with one punch, even his own cousin. "I think it was the collapse and disintegration of the family that made this child's temper moody." The old Artest felt guilty, so when Artest was 8 years old, his father sent him to an anger control treatment center. . When they learned that this energetic child who always liked to yell when he had nothing to do had no particular favorite sports, the doctor suggested that Artest play basketball, hoping that he could vent his inner anxiety and uneasiness through this intense sport. .

In the summer of 2001, "Flying Man" Jordan mocked Artest during a warm-up match, and then Artest slammed into Jordan, breaking the "Flying Man"'s ribs. Jordan did not hate him: "In fact, I like this kid." To this day, Jordan still feels regretful, "I know he is a talented person, but I also understand that his violent personality will be a disaster in his life. ”

Indeed, he is a warrior, constantly challenging the rules of the NBA, because he is fearless. In his world, he is the only one, and nothing can dominate his world. But in today's highly commercialized NBA, it is difficult to tolerate such a bohemian alternative player. Sooner or later, he will have to pay the price for all this, and all this will eventually bring him to an end.

I hope "Big Bug" Rodman's ending will not belong to him...

[Offensive] As a player who started his career on defense, Artest's offensive strength has been steadily improving every year in recent years. . In the 03-04 season, he averaged 18P/3.7A per game and was the team's second-leading scorer. Although he only played 7 games in the 2004-05 season, he averaged astonishing data of 24.6P/3.1A per game. The disadvantage is that the scoring methods are a bit pale. In addition to stable mid-range shots and three-pointers, the best dribbling into the penalty area lacks changes. He often relies on the high-intensity advantage of physical confrontation to suppress the opponent's position to gain opportunities for layups or dunks. The skill and timing of the shot are slightly poor.

[Defense] The best one-on-one defense expert in the league, and the most troublesome opponent for stars such as Ko, Mai, and Ai. He is highly motivated and possesses extremely outstanding strength, speed, stealing ability and first-class defensive skills. The only downside to having fun freezing out the opposing team's leading scorer on the court is that the action can sometimes be damaging. The league's best defensive player in the 03-04 season.

[Comprehensive evaluation] One of the league's most comprehensive swingmen, with outstanding physical condition and excellent offense and defense. The biggest drawback is irritability. As a 26-year-old young player, Artest's personal data has steadily improved every year. If he can pay attention to reining in his bad temper, he will definitely be able to develop higher in the league.

[Brief experience]

My name is Artest, a basketball kid from the slums of Queensbridge, New York. My father was a former Navy dentist. In order to support his family, he had to get up early and go to the nearby grocery store every day to carry sacks and do hard work. Among the seven brothers and sisters in the family, I was my father’s greatest hope. In order to save money to buy me sneakers, he himself only wore a pair of old boots that had been mended and covered with iron sheets for more than ten years. My childhood was not happy. I was diagnosed with "anxiety disorder" when I was 8 years old. My parents divorced when I was 13 years old. I watched my youngest sister die when I was 16 years old. I grew up in the shadow of poverty, drugs and violence. The environment also fostered my competitive, irritable and capricious character.

Although I have been very aggressive since I was a child, I did not become a street gangster like many of my friends around me. Because compared to them, I have superhuman basketball talent, and I also love this great sport. I did not waste the gift God gave me. In order to become the best basketball kid, I trained crazily every day until I was exhausted. I behave like a beast on the court. The desire to win always makes me full of fighting spirit and confident to defeat any opponent. There is no doubt that I have earned the fear of my opponents and the respect of my teammates. My performance made me a basketball hero in Queens, New York, and I was named All-State in high school. When I was 18 years old, I received a basketball scholarship from the local St. John's University. A year later, I was selected by the Chicago Bulls and officially became an NBA professional player.

My rookie season in Chicago was fulfilling and simple. Every day I was the player who practiced till the end, and then went back to the hotel alone and fell asleep. You know, at that time Phil, Jordan and Pippen had all left, the team was at its lowest point, and only Floyd was playing games with a bunch of us rookies. Although the team's record was poor, I became the starter. With my excellent defense and 12P/4.3R/2.8A data, I was selected to the "Rookie Second Team" at the end of the season. But compared to my defense, I was more well-known for my fierce style on the court. At that time, many people had begun to call me "The Beast."

I admit that I have a bad temper, especially on the court. Don't try to provoke me, otherwise Artest will be very angry and the consequences will be serious. I hate losing. If the team loses, I will yell at the opponent, the referee, and even my teammates. Because of these things, I often get technical fouls.

In any case, I have a firm foothold in the league. In my free time outside of basketball, I enjoy my fiancée, friends, and music. Many fans think that I only know basketball, but in fact I am also a hip-hop master who has released records. But I still can't stand the team's losing. My goal is to help a strong team compete for a championship ring, rather than struggling for a 50 win rate and the last seat in the playoffs every year. Because I couldn't see the future of the team's reconstruction, I had conflicts with the team management more than once, and even asked for a transfer. And something happened in the summer of 2001 that almost made me a sinner in the hearts of all Chicago fans. It was in the personal training camp organized by "His Majesty" Jordan for his comeback. I broke two of Jordan's ribs while dribbling the ball. As you can imagine, I immediately became the person who murdered the "Basketball God" in the media's pen. Fortunately, "God" recovered smoothly and forgave me, otherwise I might have left the NBA before I became the best defensive player in the league.

In a major player trade in February 2002, I finally left the Bulls and transferred to the Indiana Pacers. That's a team with Jermaine O'Neal, Reggie Miller, Al Harrington, and Jamal Tinsley. The team is on the rise. I believe this is a team that can make me A place to do great things. My choice is undoubtedly the right one. Not only is the team's record steadily improving every year, but my personal performance is also getting better year by year. Not only is the defense more stable, but the offense is also getting better and better. In the 2004 playoffs, although we narrowly lost the Eastern Conference championship against the Pistons, I was selected as an All-Star and was officially named the best defensive player in the league that year by the NBA. At the same time, Sports Online also named me the 2004 Defensive Player of the Year. Best small forward. Of course, there are also unsatisfactory things. For example, in the 2004 Athens Olympics, Brown invited Anthony, Wade, and Marion, but he didn't even give me a call. It is said that it was because David Stern said to Stu Jackson that if this guy is allowed to play in the Olympics, he might do something stupid again... It's really SHIT. If I, the best defensive player, are on the court to watch over Jerry... Nobili, then the Olympic gold medal now belongs to the United States, not Argentina.

After experiencing the glory of the 2003-04 season, the whole team and I are full of confidence. Since I was not invited to the Mediterranean, I worked hard on strength and shooting in the training camp. I wanted to use victory to prove that I have the heart of a champion and how wrong those who discriminated against me were. The start of the new season was perfect. We achieved a record of 6 wins and 2 losses. My average performance reached the best in history at 24.6P/6.4R/3.1A/1.71S. I have begun to imagine winning the best again. Defending players and leading the team to the Finals.... However, what followed was a nightmare. Everyone on earth knows what happened at the Palace of Auburn Hills in Detroit on November 19th because of the impulsive devil. , Stephen, Jermaine and I were suspended from the league, and what I got was the largest ticket in NBA history - banned from participating in all games for the rest of the season. This is the biggest suffering in my life. I can no longer even participate in the team's training. I can only watch Miller leading the rest of his teammates on the TV to fight hard on the court. When I saw our team lose to our old enemy Pistons 3:4 in the second round of the playoffs, I cried. If I could be on the court, then the Pistons would be the one who fell, and we would have the opportunity to fight for a championship. A ring as Miller's retirement gift.

I can't describe the regret in my heart in the past days. It feels uncomfortable to fall from heaven to hell. I know how much the stupid things I did in Auburn Hills hurt the team and the people who love me. The only good thing is that I was not abandoned by the fans and the team. I told Larry Bird that I owed the fans and the team a big favor, and I would repay it with a championship. At the same time, I vowed that I would change my past, become more mature and peaceful, and would never go as far as before. "Red line".

On the days after I left Conseco Arena, I did not hide in a private villa in the suburbs of Carmel, Indiana. Instead, I returned to my hometown in Queens Bridge, New York, and trained on the open-air court every day, rain or shine. I regularly reported my physical condition and competitive status to Bird and Carlisle, and also took the initiative to participate in the team's summer league. For me, the 2005-06 season has started early.

"Beast" Artest's incomplete record of violence:

At the age of 8, a child laughed at Artest's incompetence after breaking through Artest's defense on the court, and was almost strangled to death. In the same year, his father sent him to an anger control center for treatment.

During college, he was sent to the second team because of his violent temper. Coach Fraschella called him "a terrorist who can cause panic at any time."

In the summer of 2001, two of Jordan's ribs were broken during a training session at Jordan's training camp.

In May 2002, ex-girlfriend Jennifer Palma failed to call Artest back in time as instructed, and was beaten up by him.

In January 2003, during a game against the Heat, he argued twice with the famous Heat coach Pat Riley and had a scuffle.

In January 2003, after losing a game to the Knicks, he threw a piece of camera equipment worth $100,000 against the aisle wall and smashed it to pieces.

In February 2003, at an NBA union players gathering, he had a fight with former Rockets small forward Posey in front of former US President Clinton.

In March 2003, during a disastrous defeat to the Trail Blazers, he knocked Wells to the ground. Afterwards, Wells called him "just a villain."

In the 2002-03 season, he was suspended five times by the NBA and once by the Pacers for technical fouls and flagrant fouls, with the total number of suspensions reaching 12 games.

In November 2004, because of the brawl at Auburn Hills, David Stern imposed the largest fine in the league, banning him from participating in all remaining games in a single season.

[Gossip]

In 1999, Artest had hoped that the Knicks, who had the 15th pick in the draft, would select him because New York was his hometown, but the Knicks chose him instead. Frederick Weiss, who later disappeared from the league. Artest was subsequently selected by the Bulls with the 16th overall pick, but he still feels resentful about the Knicks giving up on him.

In his first year with the Bulls, Artest invited relatives and friends to come to Chicago. As a result, 50 people came, including some friends of friends. When these people left two weeks later, Artest didn't even have enough money to pay the rent. He had no choice but to go to the supermarket to apply for another job. Afraid of losing his job, he trained even harder to ensure he wouldn't be sent back to Queensbridge one day.

Artest wore the number "15" in college and when he first entered the NBA. This is a commemoration of the number "51" his father wore in high school. After arriving with the Pacers, he changed to "23" to show his admiration for Jordan. In 2004, he changed to "91", which was the number used by Rodman. After experiencing the unbearable 04-05 season, Artest decided to Wearing the "15" jersey to regain the feeling of the student days

The violent Artest also suffered physical abuse, and the "abuser" turned out to be his wife Samantha. Once his neighbor called the police and reported that Artest was chased out of the house by his wife, and the door was closed tightly to refuse her entry. However, the fierce man on the field could only stand outside the door and beg his wife until the police heard that He was able to walk into his home only after receiving the news.

Artest is a loving father. He intends to train his son to become a basketball star. He often takes time to play with his children and teaches his son by words and deeds. To enhance his children's confidence in playing, he would even pretend to be incompetent and deliberately let his son win. He now has four children, and according to some friends on the team, he plans to have a fifth child with his wife.

After entering the NBA, Artest did not forget the hometown where he raised himself. Every summer, he would spend his own money to invite neighbors to have a barbecue to improve the poor public security in Queensbridge.

He also personally organized summer camps for hundreds of poor children in New York to provide basketball coaching, and sent promising little guys to local school teams or higher-level basketball training camps.

So far, Artest has released three rap CDs. He has performed in Houston, Las Vegas, New York, Chicago and other places, and donated 50% of the proceeds from his performances to charity. mechanism.

Artest's father is a former Navy medic who was a boxer for the Philadelphia Golden Gloves Club when he was young. When Artest was very young, he began to teach his son boxing skills in the hope that Artest, who was still very thin at the time, would not be bullied by older children.

[Character Comments]

Artest is the kind of guy who regards basketball as his life and not just as a career that can make a lot of money, so he will show his talents no matter the game or training. Death-defying energy. Teams always need players like him who want to win, but first he has to learn not to let himself lose control of his emotions because of the struggle to win. Artest's hard work and talent are obvious to all, but his irritable personality since childhood is the biggest factor restricting his further development. He, players like Iverson and Marbury all worked their way up from the slums of the United States. They have personal experience of the hardships at the bottom of society. They are afraid of failure and being discriminated against. In their veins, we can find the same rebellious, competitive and tough. As for Artest, due to his childhood personal experience, he has more "wild" things in him.

Today, Artest has become an All-Star player from the 16th overall pick. As a heavyweight player with the ability to change the entire Eastern Conference, he is the boss in the locker room and the team. Whether his results are good or bad or even whether he can win the championship depends largely on his personal performance. He should understand the responsibilities he must bear. For a 26-year-old player, he still has considerable room for improvement. If he can mature as he promised, he can form a team with teammates such as O'Neal Jr., Tinsley, Jackson, and Gasco Vessels. With a young and strong team, the Pacers will be strong contenders for the championship in the next few years.

In addition to being called a "beast", "villain", "terrorist" and "little Rodman" on the court, Artest is actually a quite simple and kind-hearted guy in life. He dresses simply, likes children, is righteous, has no scandals, and sometimes makes some little jokes that people think are "funny". Speaking of which, he and his nemesis "Big Ben" Wallace have many similarities in personality and playing style. If they didn't play for two Eastern Conference teams at the same time, I think the two would be more likely to become good friends. , will appreciate each other instead of hating each other.

The big deal is finally here! Beijing time on July 30, according to the Chronicle, the Rockets have reached a deal with the Kings. The team will use Bobby Jackson, next year's first-round draft pick and another player in exchange for Artest's joining. According to the provisions of the contract, this deal cannot be officially announced until August 14, which shows that the name of the "other player" is this year's first-round pick Donta Green, and he is the only one who meets such conditions. Green signed with the Rockets on July 14 and could only be added to the deal a month later.

Fagan of the Chronicle revealed in an excited tone: This is definitely an excellent deal that will push the Rockets from a playoff team to a championship! An NBA insider has also confirmed the deal.

Of course, for salary balance reasons, the Rockets must also add another player to this deal. However, there is news that the Rockets will not retain this person, and the Rockets also need to pay the King $1 million to facilitate the transaction. Artest is 28 years old and is considered the most unpredictable player in the NBA. In the 2004-05 season, as the protagonist of the brawl at the Palace of Auburn Hills, he was suspended for 73 games by the league.

But despite Artest's unruly personality, his ability is really unspeakable. In addition to being the toughest defensive swingman in the league, the Beast can't be contained once he finds his feel on the offensive end.

In the 06-07 season, it was in a contest with the Rockets that he scored a career-high 39 points.

In the 2005-06 season, Artest also played 40 games under Adelman, averaging 16.9 points, 5.2 rebounds and a career-high 4.2 assists per game. With this performance, he was also selected to the first defensive team that year, and the Beast was also quite convinced of Adelman's ability. After the season, he even said, "If Adelman is retained, he would rather cut his salary."

However, Artest's arrival will also make Adelman experience a bit of "happiness troubles." Since the Rockets already have Sean Battier, Artest will not be a certain player. To a certain extent, it overlaps with Shane's position. But these are not problems. Artest's physique can fully enable him to serve as a power forward and mark opponents, so Adelman can let him and Battier appear on the court at the same time. Of course, what the Rockets practiced at that time was the legendary small ball tactics.

On July 30, 2008, Beijing time, the Houston Rockets reached a deal with the Sacramento Kings. The beast Artest joined the Rockets and formed the Big Three with Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady.

Recently, Artest came to the famous American TV station ESPN and accepted an exclusive interview with the TV station. When talking about his goals with the Rockets, Artest said: "We have only one expectation, which is to win first place and win the championship. We have so many outstanding players, and other goals are out of the question. Satisfied us, we only have one goal."

When asked by reporters why he has so much confidence, Artest's answer sounded quite stylized: "You know, we have it. Yao Ming, we have Tracy McGrady and we have Luis Scola, Rafael Alston and Shane Battier, so we have so many great players, so we should be right. I am confident.”

Of course, reporters will not forget the unpleasantness that happened between Artest and Yao Ming. Although there is no problem between the two now, the ESPN host still did not let go. over this problem. Regarding Yao Ming's previous evaluation of him, Artest took it lightly. Artest said: "I think Yao Ming was joking. I have lost a lot because of his actions at that time. I also watched some Rockets videos before. During the game and some interviews, I think Yao Ming is a person who likes to joke, so his words are purely joking with me. Moreover, the Rockets are the team of Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady. Yao Ming can say whatever he wants, and of course Tracy McGrady can too. Yes. You have to know that I once said that I was willing to jump off a building for Yao Ming. This is true." However, the time that happened 4 years ago still left Artest with a psychological impact. It had quite an impact. Artest said: "I don't want to say much else. What I want to say is that I can get through everything. I won't say any kind words, because I feel that no matter what the situation is, I can eventually face it on my own. I won't change anything, I'm not Tiger Woods, I'm not Tim Duncan, I'm not that good kid, I am who I am."

Coming to Houston, Artest has already done that. Well prepared, then, what preparations has he made? Artest said: "I'm ready to win, to win in games. For these wins, I'm ready to sacrifice. I can come off the bench in games, I can play 10 in a game." Minutes, as long as we can win, I want to win the game."
