Only one Ron Artest
If we somehow land Dwight Howard AND Nash (which is one of the biggest reaches I've posted, don't think that will happen), then yeah...I have no problem with it, because Howard won't allow anyone to take Nash off the dribble 30+ minutes a game.
You should reach more often

I was dying when I saw this interview.
It was an idiotic play no matter how he tries to spin it.

I'm pretty sure Mike Brown said that Barnes was standing far way to eliminate one defensive body from other side of the floor. Then Pau and Sessions would run opposite directions. Something along those lines, and truthfully it wasn't a bad play call at all.
But I think Artest and Barnes wanted to be even more creative and made up their own plan on the fly to have Barnes meet the ball at the other end of the court to throw everyone off. Barnes was actually wide open and this is why Artest repeatedly yelled at the ref to give him the ball but the refs wouldn't because of something having to do with the Lakers bench or something. By this time Ron should have gave up on the free lance play and did what the coaching staff drew up but he had it in his mind to do it anyway. The pass was foolish but it's a good thing Jason Smith wasn't paying attention.
If you look at the reactions from the players, especially Barnes and Sessions, you can see that they were upset with Ron for throwing the pass.
Mike Brown even said in the interview that the play of the game was when Matt Barnes stole the ball with 1.2 seconds to go.

I do not know what math he knows...
But, i know when the ball is closer to the basket, it is easier to score...
That pass was the craziest pass i have ever seen on any level of basketball...
Im talking YMCA, Street ball, elementry school, middle school, AAU, High School, College, NBA 2K....
That was just insane...
Can you imagine if the hornets stole the ball and scored?
Or the pass went out of bounds without barnes touching it?
Worse pass in the hitory of the NBA

The play was so weird = Barnes didnt even understand what MWP was doing. It was like he purposely tried to give ball to NO to tie game. Still SMH that was just odd. MWP I have always said plays his best when he is not on his "meds" so you gotta live with his WTF moments! His 3 ball is falling right now (see how long that lasts) and he is playing solid defense. So as long as he is off his meds Im good.

Not the worst pass in NBA history.
Remember Mason's perfect chest pass to Reggie Miller for the game tying 3 in that famous "6 points in seconds" play?

Does nobody notice Kcal trolling hard?
Mike "Potato Head" Brown?
Stu Lantz aka that was noice?
On the last possession of the game, Mike Brown felt like making a play?
Also mathematically MWP is a dumbass.

He had to pass it in because the 5 seconds where up and Reggie pushed him down and he even said so in the EPSN documentary but he said the refs didnt call it so he kept playing. Mettas pass was the worse pass ever lol
