We had a long, enjoyable run, and I would like to thank every Orlando Magic fan who contributed to our small community on the web. This message board will be left online as an archive into the thoughts and minds of a group of Magic fanatics who lived through a 21-win season, the drafting of Dwight Howard, and an eventual NBA Finals appearance.

Ron Artest gone wild; again

The Pistons were still shaking their heads at what happened Thursday night as they were on their bus inside the loading-dock area of Conseco Fieldhouse.

It was between 11:30 and midnight and the Pistons' bus was about to leave the arena for the airport.

Suddenly, a dark Escalade roared into the loading dock, nearly hitting several people.

Out jumped Ron Artest, the Pacers forward who got a seasonlong suspension for his part in the Nov. 19 brawl.

According to Pistons players on the bus, Artest was wearing an old (and short) pair of shorts. He had no shoes on and, upon getting out of the vehicle, he tore off his T-shirt.

Given the history between Artest and the Pistons, the team's security officials were on high alert. But Artest made no motion toward the bus. He simply walked, bare-chested and bare-footed, into the building, presumably for a midnight workout.

"There's something going on there," Ben Wallace said, not wanting to comment further.

Ok yeah I heard about this a few days ago, but thought it was just a fake story that someone wrote. What is up with Artest? Just another weird story to add to his resume of wackiness.

I like Ben Wallace, but I blame him and the psycho Piston fans for what went down. Artest got blamed because of his image. I wouldn't doubt one bit that there's some exaggeration in this article. So the guy is a little eccentric, and that makes him a psycho? I'll take Artest in a freakin heartbeat if I were the GM, and I bet there’s about 20 other GMs in the league that would take him too!
