That's just Hoopsworld projecting because of the press release about the big announcement. But yes, all signs are pointing to Malone's arrival in SA.

Kori, do you know what the announcement will be? Because someone from the other board who i won't mention but rhymes with Ashemte said he knows what it is what can't give it out because it would upset the Spurs.

Writer -- the Spurs have just said there will be an announcement at 5pm. No other details were given.

The Spurs just confirmed with the Ticket760 that this announcement today is not regarding Karl Malone.

Hoopsworld should be embarrassed for their shotty "reporting".

Kori - Yes, you are right. I immediately questioned the person who posted the article if they were sure.

I tip my hat to you.

New rule. No posting HoopsWorld articles. If your sources are your own guesses, you don't deserve the respect of having a thread.

Now it's a dead link.

By all means. Keep firing away at Hoopsworld. No defense for that mistake. I'll just stick to my own reports.

Kori, I think I caught a typo. Shouldn't the vowel be an "i"? :)

Too late. Rumor control has it that their media credentials were revoked by the NBA (not the Spurs!) because of continued illegal video feeds on the site. The story goes that they were warned to remove them, and all they did was post in their forum that you could email for a link. Take with a huge grain of salt anything you read there. If they even have anyone in the SBC, they are in the stands with the rest of the paying customers, with no player access at practice or from the locker room.

Do we really need Karl Malone? I don't think so!!!! :flipoff

Just think what could happen. KM, is also a player that wants to finnish the attack by him self, so that means he could get in TD's way!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Who was it that told me Karl coming was just a rumor? I believed you. I actually slept well last night. Oh mi gosh, this sucks!!!!!!!!!
Ewww! I hate Baloney. I always have and imagine that I will always will.
My year is officially ruined if Pop does this. Oh well, I guess there is a blaxk sheep in every family.
But still, Baloney in a Spurs jersey! ( sob), Excuse me, I have to go throw up now. =(

I still think that it's just a rumor! There were no serious talks. The only thing was Isiah Thomas saying that he expects Karl to sign with another contender. Nothing in particular. I don't believe it until it is official...

I think this picture is more than approriate with this statement.
