World Peace wants to play for Sharks

THE Los Angeles Lakers waived Metta World Peace on Thursday under the NBA's "amnesty" clause, the 14-year veteran promptly saying on Twitter he would play "for Yao Ming's team in China".

Formerly known as Ron Artest, he said he was excited by the prospect of a move to China, where retired NBA star Yao Ming is the owner of the Shanghai Sharks. "I'm going to play for Yao Mings team in china!" World Peace tweeted. "I can't wait to arrive in Shanghai !!"
