The "Stubborn" Back to the Lakers?

To be honest, the NBA no longer the same without the presence of Ron Artest AKA Metta World Peace, since he moved to China two seasons ago. Regardless of their talent, basketball players aged 35 years and this has something that is not shared by most other players, namely high-level temperament and the controversy he created.
Many times he scuffled with opposing players. Ben Wallace, Jose Juan Barea, Rajon Rondo, until James Harden never felt provocation and hit Artest muscular arm. And many other sensational behavior that he did so that his name often appeared in a newspaper headline. Now, the Son of the Bengal reportedly will return to the NBA, strengthening his former team, the LA Lakers, who never helped championship title in 2010.
Lakers seem difficult to find the availability of qualified small forward to strengthen the team. Because, if retrospect, age Artest is no longer young. Prior to this, he also played in the Chinese basketball league and Italy, that in fact the level of competition is not as tight as the NBA. However, to restore the level of fitness, Artest has started practicing regularly at the Lakers training camp. Reportedly, Artest will be given a brief bedurasi contract one year only.
Artest has the capacity slick as a defender. As evidence, he never won the NBA Defensive Player of the Year in 2004. But it should be remembered, that he get the title was almost a decade ago. The question now is whether Artest Lakers can contribute as much as expected?
