Metta World Peace may have changed his name, but he’ll always be Ron Artest to me. It just seems incongruous to think of the guy who featured in “Malice in the Palace” as having a name like “World Peace”. I’m not alone in this. Even the Kings’ announcer calls him by his real name early in the video.
He’s also notable for being the NBA player I’d least want to get in a fight with. This dude is legit crazy. Although I don’t think I’d have a chance against anyone, if I’m being honest with myself. Except for Spencer Hawes. I could take him easy. Hear that, Spencer? I’m calling you OUT.
