Like you said, numbers don't lie. 6 and 4 and 9 and 7 during the playoff runs to the title. Gave his all, played hurt, sacrificed, contributed.....no question.

Best C in the league? Nah. Don't make things up and try to support it by posting about a few big games in January.

Artest shot 7-18 in game 7, for the record. Since, you know, positive contributions from players towards a championship are cancelled out by poor shooting in your world.
