Never a dull moment in the World of Metta
Sunday during game three of the NBA finals between OKC and the Miami Heat, MWP too a not-so-subtle jab at Harden’s intelligence after an ill-advised foul on LeBron James:

Well, alright. The player formerly known as Ron Artest elaborated more Monday on the result of Lakers/OKC series, which ended with OKC defeating the Lakers in 5 games:
Okc played old teams. And a laker team who is better but questioned their greatness at the wrong time. Miami is younger . Maybe okc ….

Maybe okc got a little satisfied game 2 which can potentially cost them. But I believe harden ,west n Durant n fish will do amazing things!

Okc beat a laker team with a rusty metta world…Those seven games helped them alot. I was a step slow on D and O.

Have to respect MWP for giving his unabated opinion, which is no different from what millions of us do on a daily basis. In that same regard, MWP has no one to blame but himself for those seven missed games that may have cost him his rhythm and the Lakers a chance at their third NBA title in four seasons.
World Peace isn’t getting younger and at 32 has two seasons left on his Lakers contract ($7.2 mil for 2012-2013 with a $7.7 mil player option for 2013-2014). Hopefully Metta learns from this season and returns next year fully focused on nothing more than helping the Lakers compete for a championship.
You never know what Ron Ron will do next so if not, he definitely has a bright future in reality TV.
