It doesn't matter, there's a reason why he wasn't playing more than 32 minutes. It is very fair and easy to judge them by looking at their career stats, because they both came into the league the same year, both are the same age, both play the same position, both were drafted by whack teams and were traded to better ones...Shit, add the fact that Artest is a fucking moron who could snap at any second and wants to retire soon, and there's no reason why any sane person would make a trade like this...Shit, I highly doubt Mitch would trade Lamar alone for Artest, let alone Lamar AND Kwame. A trade like that can blow up in your face and earn you the title "worse GM ever"...PeACe

Odom + Kwame combined career stats: PPG 23.7, RPG 13.8, APG 5.3, BPG 1.70
Artest career stats: PPG 14.4, RPG 4.7, APG 3.0, BPG 0.60

Yes, after looking at those numbers, the original question in this thread seems hilarious.

Hell yeah! Artest is the real deal - 11 (61.1%)
Hell no! Odom/Brown are the future of the NBA - 7 (38.9%)

Yes, that's an argument. But you don't trade two potential superstars for a moron with heart, especially when the potential superstars have posted up better numbers.
