Metta World Peace Wants to Play In China
Metta World Peace is done with the NBA. At least this is what is coming off his mouth now that the Los Angeles Lakers cut him.
“I don’t really want to play for anybody,” World Peace said Friday. “I don’t want to go anywhere. I want to go to China, or coach or play arena football.”
“You don’t live twice,” World Peace added. “You’re not 33 twice. You won’t be able to play in China at a good level again. I wouldn’t be able to play in China again averaging, maybe, 40 or more points. That would be fun.”
According to ‘World Peace’ the only team he would want to play for is the New York Knicks. “I had a chance to play in New York [in the past],” World Peace said. “I wanted to play in New York when I was in my prime and I was young, fierce, lock-down [defender]. Madison Square Garden that would have been sick. But right now, China is way more adventurous for me.”
World Peace had one of his best seasons in terms of stats, averaging 12.4 points, 5.0 rebounds on his 14th year in the league.
The Lakers now are 100/1 (25/1 before losing Dwight Howard to the Rockets), have plans of resigning players to one year deals. The plan seems to be to ‘suck’ as much as possible to get a good pick in the lottery for next year’s draft, which looks to be loaded with talent.
