1) Artest plays physical D vs Tay's "I'll use my wingspan to avoid contact cuz I might get hurt"..."I'll sneak in and get a block from behind for the highlight reel"..."MOMMY!?! Lebron's running full speed straight at me!!! What should I do!?!?" approach to defense.

2) Artest is far more adept at steals

3) Artest has more than one move in the post

4) Artest has one year left on his contract (would cut $1M off the 08-09 payroll)

-
1) Artest has been psychotic unpredictable off the court

2) Artest has one year left on his contract (even with a good season in Detroit, I think he'd bolt afterward)


I was gonna say Ronnie is more injury-prone than Tay, but then realized the silliness of that point


All-in-all, who knows how playing in Detroit would affect Ron-Ron? He might either regain his DPOY title or end up sleeping with a rifle in his truck in the Palace parking lot.
