Thoughts on the mailman.....

[Ballcox]

Just wondering if other Spurs fans out there were waiting with breath held for his decision on what team to play for (if he plays at all). At this point I'm pretty content with our roster, don't see the need for Malone to join us, actually think that would disrupt the chemistry we have at this time. Thoughts? Opinions?

not another Mal One thread. he's retiring. he's done. move on.

If he plays, I think we should get him. Yes he would help us, but I think we get him to keep him from going to MIA or another team that may pose a threat to the Spurs.

Malone playing with Miami worries me, even more so if we meet them in the finals. TD has had problems in the past dealing with Malone's 'physical' style of play (meaning not always within the rules of the game, just what he can get away with!).

Malone is gonna retire, i hope he's done.

I agree, I don't want malone to sign with the Heat, that could cause some trouble in the finals...come on, we all know the finals are gonna be Spurs - Heat...

That is why we need to sign him if he does decide to play. But, I think He'll retire. Either way I could care less, long as he doesnt go to MIA then Im happy.

There's a blurb in the Phoenix paper that the Suns have contacted him (Manley) now too about acquiring Malone.

They were given the same info that the LA Times said -- that he was likely retiring and would make a decision in a week or two.

...that he was likely retiring and would make a decision in a week or two.

First, it was after the new year. Now, it's like whenever the hell he declares it. What an attention ho'. :rolleyes

I hope he retires. I don't want him to play for the spurs.

Well, I don't care how good a condition he's in. Malone is quickly approaching the very limited window for his return, meaning having enough regular season time to get his game in shape, conditionin, timing, etc. I'm hoping he just goes ahead and retires, him joining the wrong team (Miami, Phoenix) is really the only main factor at this point that I can see getting in the way of us winning another ring.
