World Peace, who was formally known as Ron Artest, elbowed Harden in the head, who laid on the court for a while before leaving with a concussion. World Peace was ejected from the game and was subsequently suspended for seven games heading into that season’s playoffs.Kh

The NBA announced on Tuesday that Los Angeles Lakers forward Metta World Peace — the artist formerly known as Ron Artest — has been suspended for seven games after his vicious elbow to the head of James Harden during a Sunday game at Staples Center left the Oklahoma City Thunder guard with a concussion.Ordibe

His world changed when his parents divorced while he was still a boy, and he had an often-troubled relationship with his father. Thrown for a loop, Artest lost control. “I always had anger issues because that’s all I grew up around, anger,” he says. “I also had love and that’s why people see two sides from me.

World Peace, who changed his name from Ron Artest, received an 86-game suspension in 2004 — the longest ban for an on-court incident in NBA history — for jumping into the stands at the Palace of Auburn Hills in the Detroit suburbs to fight fans.Ordibe

Artest originally changed his name to Metta World Peace during the 2011 offseason. The reasoning he gave Bill Plaschke of The Los Angeles Times in the moment was brilliant: “I changed my name because I got tired of Ron Artest, he’s a [expletive],” World Peace said.Ordibe

Artest had anger management issues. He will always be known for a scary incident In 2004, when, playing for the Indiana Pacers, he entered the stands and fought a fan after someone lobbed a soda at him.Kh

Artest was wrong to judge who had thrown the cup of drink and attacked the wrong person. And the fan who threw the drink was outraged by Artest’s attitude. And in a “perfect threw”, he hit the Indiana player hard. However, he did not foresee the consequences of this attack on the athlete lying on the scorer’s table…

Artest almost sounds as if he has a doctorate in psychology. And while he never took a class in that, he spent countless hours being tutored. The words come freely with no hesitation. You ask, he tells.

In one corner was Felipe Lopez, the former New York schoolboy sensation who’d just played his final college game, shaking and sobbing into a towel. In another corner was Artest, a far less-celebrated New York schoolboy sensation, eyes dry and open wide.

“The Malice at the Palace” in 2004 has its own carved-out space in NBA dishonor, with Artest serving as the ringleader who sent part of America tsk-tsking about race and sports violence and losing control.
