[Ashy Larry]

lol @ David Robinson ........ aka Glass Joe

[Reeko_Htown]

Fuck that Pussy ass deadbeat dad.

ringless loser

[Killakobe81]

LOL Lakers legend.

Let me say this ... I hated his dirty ass
and when he questioned Magic's return i hated him even more.
then we got him ...and much like when we signed Rodman still disliked him but he wa sin purple and gold so i bit my tongue.
But watching him even as an old man for 82 games ...his passing, bball smarts and toughness was amazing.
Grreat player.
Is he the all-time best PF No. and here's why:

1. ringless you cant be GOAT at any position ...ringless. Sorry.
2. though he had moments he seemed to shrink in some of the bigger moments. No disgrace kobe, MJ and Magic all have had some crappy Playoff and finals games but when you add that with#1 ...

duncan gets my vote (but it IS debatable if he is even a true PF )... cuz of rings, clutch factor ...

if you exclude duncan and dont count rings I think he gets nod over KG and dirk though not duncan still in my opinion ...but it IS a great debate ...

I think Duncan's better. But I like to rile spurs fans by calling him a center. The funny thing about Spurs fans is that they want it both ways. Any discussion about the greatest center and they're going to include Duncan. Any discussion about greatest PF and they're going to include Duncan. They need to make up their minds.

[Killakobe81]

1 more thing ...he could of easly hung on and kept chasing a ring and/or Kareem's record.
he chose not too and I respect him more for that ...
Being ringless excludes him as all-time great PF ...but he gets cool points for not hanging on ...

To me the funnier part is when there was great centers the FO fought to keep him at PF (all-star and ALL-NBA designation) but when centers becaame sorry the push was to hve him at center ...

either way duncan in my years of watching is a top 3 center or #1 PF either way he is an all-time great ...so it doesnt matter.

He wa slike Rod woodson. Woodson was pro-bowl corner with steelers and pr-bowl safety with Ravens.
duncan is all-star at either spot.

[Killakobe81]

But wait individual accomplishments mtter more ...I just saw that in another thread ...

in that case Malone>duncan LMAO ...

:lol

[DeadlyDynasty]

one of the last true NBA bad-asses...You'd be hard-pressed to find an opponent who hadn't taken a Malone elbow to the grill when he played.

[Killakobe81]

Oh, yeah and head 2 head is meaningless as well as playoff success ...

So again, Malone is better than duncan ...based on the same logic.

Malone
better FT shooter
better scorer
better rebounder
better defnder
better passer

who cares if San antonio's win % head 2 head is better

[Chieflion]

Well-deserved indeed.

And we have the idiot's opinion. Even Jazz fans won't argue Malone is a better defender than Duncan. LMAO easily butthurt. LMAO carrying shit over to another thread.

I was joking dumbass apparently you didnt get it oh wait you chose OJ mayo who isnt the smartest tool in the shed so that makes sense ...

Obviouly you missed the part where it's obvious duncan is better period.

Malone only really beats duncan at scoring ...numbnuts ...

[JamStone]

Who's presenting Karl Malone?

I say Diamond Dallas Page deserves the honor.

LMAO Williams better than Paul because of playoff success.
LMAO LeBron best player in the league, but, but, but needs ring to validate it. (LMAO admitting LeBron is the best player yet needs ring)
LMAO contradiction.
LMAO 16th pick Kobe Bryant.
LMAO phone call.
LMAO dragging stupid shit from Paul VS Williams thread.

tou-che, salesman

[balli]

In all seriousness, Willis Reed will be presenting for Malone. Which I find odd. I'm surprised he didn't choose Coach Sloan or Stockton, but I'm even more surprised he chose Willis. I guess they have some Louisiana connection.

LOL obsessed ...i didnt know you cared!
Apparently you are a HUGE fan of my work!
LOL quoting me in another thread but saying im bringing stuff here ..pot meet kettle ...
LOL bringing up old stuff. you really are obsessed.
LOL Mayo PG and 2nd most popular USC alumn after reggie bush right now ...
LOL gay slur ...
LOL not understanding sarcasm ...

[Killakobe81]

How about Kobe's wife?

now that is funny.
why not sloan i was inpressed with his HOF speech last year I didnt know he had a good sense of humor ...

[Venti Quattro]

lol taking a pass on vanessa bryant

[ambchang]

He only chose to ring chase for the Lakers, which was then destroyed by Shaq, Kobe, and Buss's collective ego.

Where could he have coattailed in 05? Spurs? Pistons?

[TD 21]

Malone is my second favorite player of all-time. I was hoping he'd have kept playing and broke Abdul-Jabbar's record, but not just to get the record, but because he was still a good player. He wasn't like Olajuwon or Ewing were at the end of their respective careers.

Duncan was a PF/C when he broke in, but with his limited mobility in recent years and the game going smaller and faster, he's now a C. Offensively, he was always really a C, but defensively, he used to be able to guard PF's.

The thing is though, you can be in the discussion at two positions. Look at Rodriguez. Greatest shortstop of all-time and also one of the greatest third basemen of all-time. Apply that to Duncan: greatest power forward of all-time and also one of the greatest centers of all-time.

[Killakobe81]

I think so. Are you telling me the Spurs wouldn't have moved Duncan to center to add Karl Malone? How about the Nets or any mid-level contender?
Like TD21 said, Malone could of STILL played.

[Darrin]

I hated the Lakers in 2004. But there was nothing better than putting this fucking asshole out of commission. For good. No title. You couldn't play in the last game. End of your career. Goodbye.

6bM-Y4UoiAY

I remember this game. I remember Laimbeer going back at him. I remember all the blood, all the cut-aways, the delay of game. And he said he deserved it for being a Bad Boy. Because our guard thought he should've been in John Stockton's slot of the Dream Team he used it for motivation every time he played Stockton. By Malone's logic, what do you deserve, Karl?

There were rumors in February of 2005 that Malone was coming here. Blasphemy. There are things I forgive, but 40 stitches above the right eye--near the orbital bone, the eye socket, the skull, and the brain is a bitch move.

Fuck you, you classless piece of shit.

Fail. Badly.

[Cane]

One of the least likable HOFers around. Darrin ftw.

[Darrin]

Fail. Badly.

Agreed. Took him 2 years what Karl couldn't do in 20.

one of the last true NBA bad-asses...You'd be hard-pressed to find an opponent who hadn't taken a Malone elbow to the grill when he played.

Or one who never dropped Malone to the floor from the slightest touch as if there was a sniper in the stands. Can't be Mahorn and Vlade at the same time.

Tim seems to like the new one better. He's got two of those.

My 2 worded response draws your ire? :rolleyes

You need to invest in a mirror then Rinse and Repeat.............Sgt. Serious.

[Ashy Larry]

great speech though ..... straight from the heart

[MI21]

Was a fantastic thing that he didn't get to play in his final game and never got a championship.

Perfect.

[Spurs Brazil]

Fuck Malone

G.King and J.Butler have more rings then you

[pauls931]

f'in deadly elbows, but I admit the Jazz were probably the team that had the best shot at knocking off the MJ teams.
