Can 2008 get any weirder? On New Years Day Mickael Pietrus said that he wants to be traded to a team that plays closer to the West Indies. Yes, the same Mickael Pietrus that plays for the Golden State Warriors, aka the most exciting team in the league. Of course, Pietrus' defensive skills don't mesh that well with Nellie-ball, but still, you just don't hear of many players looking to leave the Warriors right now.
Then Andrew Bogut came out with the brilliant idea to Google "learning how to win" in order to help his Milwaukee Bucks. Wow, if only they had thought of that sooner!
To top it all off, Ron Artest has stated that he can turn around the New York Knicks. Don't get me wrong, I think that Ron Artest is a very talented player,but he is also just about as crazy as they come. At this point the Knicks are crazy enough on their own. Adding Artest should be the last thing on Isaiah Thomas' mind right now.
At the very least, this news should add an interesting element to tonight's Knicks vs. Kings game at the Garden. Artest is out of action due to elbow surgery, but the MSG crowd will probably have something to say to Thomas about Artest anyway.
The question is do things just get stranger from here?
Edit: No joke, Mark Madsen is considering buying a gun. Now I'm really scared.
