How come Ron Artest didn't get a tribute video when he returned to Houston?

    I was sitting courtside at that game when Artest returned to Houston as a Laker. It disgusted me that we didn't give him a tribute video. He ended up hitting the dagger 3 and signaled a huge "T" to the crowd when we were forced
    to call timeout.

    Karma? :(

    Artest wasn't amnestied. He left on his own.

    we wouldn't resign him. Staying here would have been his #1 choice, he said it.

    Are you serious??!!!

    Ron Artest single handedly lost us the series against the Lakers in 2009. Enough said

    Because Artest made some threats before he played his first game against the Rockets.

    well, what would you expect from World Peace of ****?

    One season, it was his choice to leave for the Lakers, forcing us to sign Ariza instead. It was a good choice for him as he won a ring that way but there was no reason for us to give him a tribute. He has a good run for one year but that was it.
