If the above trade went through I think the Cavs would need to move Hughes to PG and Lebron to SG to fit Artest in at SF

Reminds me of this girl that worked in the employee cafeteria at Cedar Point when I worked at the park in '07 and '08. Like every other week she would have a name tag with a different name, and she was legit requesting name changes. I overheard her one day mention that HR refused to accept another name change. Absolutely ridiculous.
LOS ANGELES (AP) Lakers forward Metta World Peace has been ejected for elbowing Oklahoma City's James Harden in the head.
World Peace was ejected for a flagrant foul late in the second quarter Sunday.
World Peace had just dunked on a fast break and was celebrating his basket while running upcourt when he ran into Harden. While World Peace pounded his chest with his right arm, he threw his left elbow right over Harden's shoulder and into the back of his head.
Harden dropped to the court and stayed down for about a minute. Oklahoma City's Serge Ibaka and teammates challenged World Peace, but they were kept apart.
