    While Ron Artest is taking photos for Peak on July 1st, sina.com did a phone interview with him.

    The link below has the audio and it's in English so I am not going to do the translation here.

    - Ron said he wanted to stay with Rockets
    - He felt Yao is going to be okay
    - He was asked if Lakers or Knicks got any chance to acquire him, I'll leave you to find his answer yourself
    - He was asked if he is prepared to take the role as the leader of the Rockets
    - Some other random questions, e.g. Kobe, about Richard Jefferson joining Spurs, his next album, MJ etc.

    So enjoy.

    Oh, the reporter asked him about the hot dog video but wasn't narrated in the article at all, I have some difficulties listening to Ron's reply so if someone can recap, it will be much appreciated.

    I got that gut feeling, that Ron appreciated his re-birth, and the oppurtunity we gave him. As much as Ron helped us get to the 2nd round, we also helped Ron shed his skin, and re-invent himself.

    There's a audio player embedded in the web page. It should be played automatically. You may want to wait longer.
