Conclusions? They both left roles they were better suited for and went to roles they're not a terrific fit in. Ariza is much better at his old role (and Artest's current one) than Artest is. Artest is much better at his old role (and Ariza's current one) than Ariza is.
In other words, everything we thought was true last summer... Turned out to be true.

The annual McDonald's High School All-American Game is tonight, so just a quick reminder that you can find the boys' team rosters from this year (and every year since the 1st McDonald's game in 1977) here at Basketball-Reference, under the Awards section of the site. Congrats to all the selections, and good luck to them in the next stage of their hoops careers.

In a variation on a running theme (one that's especially pertinent given the early departures of Syracuse, Kansas, & Kentucky from this year's tourney), I wanted to know how often the "best" (i.e., most talented, most dominant over the entire season, etc.) team wins the NCAA Tournament. We know that the NFL's best team wins the Super Bowl about 24% of the time, that the best team in baseball wins the World Series about 29% of the team (or at least, they did back in the 1980s when Bill James studied the issue), and that the NBA's best team wins the Finals almost half of the time... So what's your guess for college basketball?

With Baylor and Tennessee in contention for a pair of Final Four slots on Sunday, we had the possibility of a Butler-West Virginia-Baylor-Tennessee group emerging from the regional finals, which would have been perhaps the least storied Final Four in recent history. Alas, Michigan State and Duke, two of the more successful schools of all time, crashed the Final Four party -- but they also left us with an eclectic 4-team group that will provide ample storylines over the coming week. How does this year's crop compare to past Final Fours in terms of the talent of the teams involved? Let's take a look:
