Post-concussion syndrome. Everyday is 1998.

Post-concussion syndrome. Everyday is 1998.

I like that we also got that first win in Utah from it, and it didn't result in going 7.

[whottt]

Is it just me...or is Drob not missing many meals these days?

[MI21]

Is there anymore quotes from Dave?

I LOVE hearing him say that!

[MI21]

and yeah, definitly some fat on that face

Kinda weird to see. Used to him being one of the most conditioned athletes I have ever seen.

[timvp]

I love Javie and Malone.

And DRob is a fat ass.

[whottt]

The next time you see me in a thread defending the Admiral from Rocket and LakerFan, will be the first. Plus, I like AJ.

DRob who almost looks the same as in 2003, is sexy, IMO. Someone who takes good care of his health & body.

Thanks for the reminder.

Karl Malone. Finely-honed athlete. World class basketball skills. Win at all costs, ethics and morals be damned.

How beautiful it is for us all to reflect on Malone's three NBA Finals whiffs. Let's review:

1997 Finals, Game one: Malone celebrates his first MVP award by missing two crucial free throws, blowing a great opportunity to grab the coveted "road split". MJ rubs Malone's face in it by burying a jumper at the buzzer followed by a highly restrained celebration - an extended fist held in the air as if to say, MVP's hit these shots.

1997 Finals, Game five: After two great home performances by the Jazz which tied the series at two games a piece, game five was played in Salt Lake City. With a win, the Jazz would have a 3-2 series lead. Instead, a wobbly-legged, profusely sweating, near-death Michael Jordan dropped a severe ass-kicking on the league MVP. The Bulls won their fifth le after the following game.

1998 Finals, Game four: 54 points. Utah scored 54 points in 48 minutes. Who missed the bus? Who kept hitting the snooze alarm? Who forgot how to get to the United Center? 54 points?? Jeez, that's embarrassing, Malone! That's all on you!

1998 Finals, Game six. Everything was going Utah's way. Sure, they were down 3-2, but they were back home, Scottie Pippen was suffering back spasms, making him as mobile as Rasho Nesterovic's grandmother, and the Jazz staved off elimination by winning game five in Chicago. And, fast-forwarding to the end of the game, Malone's clutch teammate John Stockton broke a tied game by hitting a three-point basket. So what happens next? Utah forces a game seven? Nope. First, MJ races right to the rim and lays the ball in. No problem, says Utah, we'll go to our HOF, MVP, all-time great power forward. He'll bring it on home for us. Well, Malone takes his sweet time on the left block, allowing Michael Jordan race in and steal the ball. Then, Jordan hits one of the signature shots of his career to clinch #6. And Malone messed the bed yet again.

2004 NBA Finals: This is the year. Soon to be 41 year old Karl Malone is playing great basketball for the Los Angeles Lakers, joining future HOFers Shaquille O'Neal, Kobe Bryant, and Gary Payton for one last Finals run. Malone does what he was brought in for, limiting Tim Duncan and Kevin Garnett about as well as a single player can, helping LA return to the NBA Finals after a year's absence. But Karma's a Mother er, Malone!! You're injured! For once, you're on the other end of a badly-timed injury. Sure, no one dirtied you up for it - and that's what makes it even better. It was a clear sign from the basketball gods, telling your thug ass, "Thou shalt ne'er drink of the NBA's Holy Grail, you vicious bas ." So in the end, you could only helplessly watch as the Detroit Pistons picked your team apart. Cool little postscript? Gary Payton got his ring after all! EAT , KARL MALONE!!

BTW, we didn't need you in 2005, either. We were just being nice to you.

Heh yeah.

Well, a lot of guys faces start to look fatter as they're older, regardless if they're in shape or not.
It's more of a collagen thing than a fat thing. I just hope he doesn't end up looking like Magic.

Nope. No steriods in the meds for Magic. He just got fat.

[tsb2000]

Dave= NBA Champ

Karl= wishing for a ring in one hand, crapping in the other to see which hand got filled first.

[timvp]

Why is David Robinson living in the past? It's not the same Utah team!!!!!!!!! He needs to get a life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Exactly. And some Spurs fans couldn't figure out why beating Utah had extra meaning.
