Ron Artest just confirmed to ESPN reporters that he was signing with the Lakers (remember their confrontation during the playoffs? classic NBA moment!).
The former Houston Rocket guard became a free agent at the end of this season and was courted by many teams like the Cleveland Cavaliers. Ron has been spending a lot of time in L.A these past few weeks, even attending a few Lakers playoff games after his Houston Rockets were eliminated in a very intense match up series.
This move obviously hint that the Lakers are very reluctant to re-sign Trevor Ariza who is reportedly in talks with the Houston Rockets and Cleveland Cavaliers. L.A had to sacrifice one of their two players that became free agents, Lamar Odom is probably staying. he's been very instrumental to the success of the triangle offense.
I'm on the fence for this move, time will only tell.
