Rockets' forward Ron Artest believes that Donnie Walsh will ultimately turn the Knicks around before it's all said and done.

"It's going to work," Artest said before missing Saturday night's game against the Knicks with an ankle sprain. "If anyone's going to make it happen, if anybody can turn it around, Donnie Walsh can do it. Maybe they're 10 years too late, back in 1999. But he's there now, and he's a great person."
