Shocker

Some very intriguing and shocking moves have been made in NBA free agency this past week. Thursday may have been the most shocking of all when Ron Artest and Trevor Ariza basically swapped teams. With Artest to the Lakers, they have to be the early favorite to win the title; Kobe can take a break from guarding the opposers' best player and Artest brings a toughness and heart that L.A doesn't really have. Houston on the other hand seems to be getting worse by the day; Yao Ming may be out for the season, T-Mac can't stay healthy and now they have Ariza who I will never be sold on. Ariza points in the playoffs this season came off of being wide open waiting for a pass. That won't happen in Houston where the team won't consistently have a superstar on the court. It'll be interesting to see how this works out but L.A has just got even better and Houston continues to plummet.
