Good points... but you must admit he's in better shape than you thought.

I'm fine with Artest getting stronger as long as he doesn't get so heavy that he can't stay with perimeter guards.
-I'm still not sure if he's going to guard guards or forwards... b/c I'd rather not have Kobe guarding opposing guards.
If Ron decides to train to defend forwards - getting stronger is fine by me.
If Ron decides to train to defend guards - he might want to get quicker and faster...
Dropping some weight, but getting way more ripped will give Ron all he needs to shut down 90% of opposing swingmen.
DPOY is his for the taking if he wants it bad enough.

Re: Ron wants to get stronger....
Trust me, it won't be what Ron decides. It's going to be alllllll about the vision of the Lakers' coaching staff. If Ron Artest gets free roam in LA, we might as well shoot down any championship aspirations.
If we lose Odom, we're going to need Ron to play some minutes on the face up 4's that rule the league at the moment. KG, Sheed, LMA etc. etc. are all going to give the Lakers fits if Bynum and Gasol are forced to guard them.
However, as he is now, Ron has the speed and strength to shut guard these guys effectively; if he got any stronger he would be able to check centres, we don't need anymore interior defense. We're going to need someone to take care of the opposing wing players, to take the pressure off Kobe. He is a dumb ass if he thinks he needs to bulk up.

Re: Ron wants to get stronger....
You guys think just because hes working out a lot more with weights he's getting bulkier. He's not. Look at his abs and pecs, the dude is getting ripped, he is losing weight and turning his fat into lean muscle.

It takes a lot more then Myoplex to build a body like that....unless you are just naturally gifted. I was in the bodybuilding scene 10 years back (when a few items where still legal). Done everything short of roids and I will tell you one thing, it takes yeeaaaaaaars to develop a physique like that. I use to train with a pro football player in Chino Hills, and I will tell you that most of these athletes (including NBA) are not saints when it comes to abusing roids.
On a flip side, I could care less if they do use'em. I just want to be entertained.

^^^^I said Myoplex because..that's their slogan--> "I'm not done yet."
i could care less what myoplex does, the slogan fit the scenario.
