He's playing a bunch of no names, but his shot and more importantly his confidence look great. If he can shoot like he did in the last few months of the season (and in this game), the Lakers offense will be unstoppable.

Keep it up MWP!

I'm good if he hits just his wide open 3's

Fadeaways with a hand in his face is just a bonus

I thought it was a Miss America pageant with all the repeating of "world peace.....world peace....world peace"

Ronald Artest, IMO, did a very good job on Durant this season including the post-season. Durant did the majority of his damage against other defenders not named Peace and also in the fast break. But, head-to-head, when Perkins wasn't setting another one of his patented illegal screens, Peace was very good against Durant.

Also, as the season wore on, he got in better shape, became more comfortable in the offense, and was very solid on both sides on the ball. There is no stronger defender at the SF position than Peace. So, LJ cannot back him down and eat him up in the low post the way he did against OKC and other SFs. Yes, Peace will not fair exceptionally well in the perimeter against James, but if he's in shape his hands and awareness of angles can disrupt James a bit the way he did against Durant in the playoffs.

I say keep Peace, as he's going to be key in potential match-ups against LJ, Anthony, and Durant. People that are very eager to want to get rid of him and/or don't recognize what he brings to the table, show a lack of overall basketball knowledge.

I'd say keep Peace too but only on the bench. His 3 pt shooting kills us more than his defense helps.

Peace produced in the playoffs. That's when it matters the most. He was hitting his threes, scoring, and defending like a mother. I like that Peace is balling right now. In the past, he's been to worried about playing flag football with his twitter followers or visiting foreign countries in off-season. If he comes into camp in shape and hungry, Peace will have a very solid season.
