Best of CBA 2014-2015: Metta World Peace
The former Ron Artest and his Panda Shoes
Metta World Peace decided to take his talents to China and signed with the Sichuan Whales of the CBA. Sichuan is the province in China with the largest population of Panda bears, therefore Metta World Peace was announcing another name change to "The Pandas Friend". He also released his new shoe with the panda bear head dangling on the shoe. The Pandas Friend was rumored to have minor injuries and also did not fit what the team wanted as he was not able to play in the post. After 15 games the team decided to sign Daniel Orton to replace Metta World Peace. However Metta World Peace did not leave China, instead he is seen with the team and cheering on his teammates although he knew he would not play another game.
