Artest is one of the two best players in the NBA... according to himself.
Ron Artest, asked on Fox Sports Net's CMI: The Chris Myers Interview, to name the best player in the NBA:
"I think I'm in the top two. Pick whomever else you want. But I think I'm in that category."
On being with the Sacramento Kings:
"It is not necessarily 'happy to be out of Indiana,' but I am happy to be in Sacramento if that makes any sense. I had a lot of good times in Indiana, but I'm definitely happy. It's one of my best moments being an NBA player, being in Sacramento...Mike Bibby has been nothing but a friend and all the guys are the same way. It's been a joy being around the Sacramento Kings."
On being suspended:
"It wasn't fair at all. You look back at the days Larry Bird used to fight Charles Barkley. The NBA was built on that and guys still talk about that on TNT...it still wasn't like I started trouble. It was like somebody started trouble with me, you know what I'm saying? It wasn't like I went into the stands because someone was talking to me. Someone threw something at me so I was pissed off."
