If Malone wants to come and try out, then you get him.
With the Spurs rolling, the need for Malone has not been as pressing.
With that tall goof Rasho down for about 3 weeks, do the Spurs see what's up with the Mailman?
I hate Rasho and think Malone would bring added scoring and playoff poise to the Spurs, but I'm also concerned about screwing up chemistry.
The Spurs are the best team in the NBA right now.
Would Malone be overkill?
?

Don't wreck the chemistry.
yeah malone would ruin the whole thing. he has made a career off of cheap shots and dirty playing and i dont want the Spurs to have that reputation. look how good we our without him. I personally hope he retires.
I wouldn't screw with the chemistry. If Rasho's only going to be out 2-3 weeks, then activate Marks and see how it goes. Or we could always let Devin Brown play power forward next to Duncan at center. It worked out beautifully last night.
what about horry? is he ok? we will be fine for 2-3 weeks with horry/rose/massinburg.
I think Marks needs to be activated, Pop told him at the beginning of the season that he would have a chance to play.
I was pro-Malone, mostly because I distrusted Parker and Manu to both elevate their games in the playoffsto make up for Bowen and Rasho ultimately sucking.
The Spurs have been rolling and I at least trust Manu.
There's that whole stigma of the Spurs being the team to hand-deliver Malone a le if he joined our team.
And would his ego do more harm than good?
Hes not coming.
If he hasnt agreed to a contract by now, hes not going to.
Would you want him if he was healthy and willing?
yes.
But I dont think he is either.
The whole stringing both parties along is BS IMO.
My opinion on Malone: http://nbaspurs.blogspot.com/2005/01/you-just-dont.html
I'm not sure Malone is an essential to lock it up this year. No one plays defense like the Spurs and we do have some athletic scorers, if not a totally dominating post game.
How about this for a question:
Do the Spurs need Malone more for a ring or does Malone need the Spurs more for a ring?
Id say its the latter.
Right now, the Spurs would win it all, not a team that will beat them honestly.
With malone it would just make it even easier.
Getting late, but I still don't want him going to a compe or.
I think he's retiring. I've said that for a couple months. But I still understand if the Spurs sign him (if he's healthy) just to avoid him going to the compe ion.
I'll take a stand.
Sign Malone, start him and bring Rash1t off the bench.
I'm going back to my first instincts on this one.
just what we need an old ing malone dragging a bum leg around the court and ing everything up
I think he finished with basketball. Now isn`t the right time to sign him.
I hate the damn . He won't bring anything to this team and I would hate to hand him his desired ring.
We are doing just fine without him.
Malone is coming to San Antonio. The more he builds up this "retirement" drama, the more I believe he's coming. There's no way this drama queen will pass up a chance to steal the highlights of a championship run. Also, don't forget that the queen also has to break the all-time scoring record before he retires.
He'll be a Spur.
Malone is done, no way he plays on minute of NBA this year.
If he's healthy, I'll take him. We STILL don't have that "tough guy". I'm still worried about guys like Danny Fortsen chewing us up and spitting us back out. Our guards are getting slapped silly when they drive, especially Manu. You can't tell me that that crap would continue to happen if we had a Malone-type guy on our team. We had that role filled with Kevin Willis...but alas no more. I hate to see our guys getting beat up out there, bring him in, even if it's only to do damage control.
"role filled with Kevin Willis"
What ing myth.
Kevin rode the bench for all but garbage minutes, on avg, and had NO INTIMIDATING EFFECT on how other teams treated the Spurs.
If Tony M and Sean aren't in game shape and can't help the Spurs, then how is Malone supposed to come in, from a knee injury, get his legs/wind in shape, get in game shape, he's 42, learn his defensive assignments which nobody new to Spurs seems to pick up in less than 2 months or more, and be of any help in March and April?
the whole Malone thing is way passed credibility. he ain't no savior for any team.
According to his agent, he isn't even healthy yet.
Would those who want to sign him still do so knowing that he's not healthy?
