His work ethic. and the fact that he works out everyday. he was 40 years old when he was starting at PF for us ocho.
the guy shut down Duncan in the playoffs for crying out loud. |
so now at 42 malone can shut down duncan in the playoffs after not touching a basketball for 2 years. get in touch with reality. the guy is old, so he retired. he's not going anywhere and his body was breaking down in his last season. what other retired guys do you want us to get? |
LMAO....
Arvydas Sabonis anyone? Kareem? MJ!!!? ONE MORE TIME!!!! |
hey they say jerry west is going to leave the GM position in memphis....maybe he wants to suit up #44 again. _________________ 14-5-3-12 |

Jordan didn't touch the basketball for 3 years and he still came to the league and played well. Malone can do the same. |

jordan wasn't 42 years old when he came back. and he wasn't injured the last time we saw him. he was playing professional sports when he was away, just a different sport.
are you actually trying to compare the two? _________________ 14-5-3-12 |

Both were great players. but there is no point talking about this hes not gonna comeback not because he can't but because hes probably more happy being off-court at this point. |

He is working out chopping down trees and hunting ducks. |
Don't forget about hunting for little mexican girls. |
Nah, he is in LA, he is hunting little Cajun girls. _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023. |

I know it sound crazy to suggest it but why not i mean really this would be the perfect fit for karl to try and get a ring. He would get the starting spot and play with kobe and lamar.
smush/farmar/williams
Kobe/evans/sasha
lamar/luke/vlad
Malone/Turiaf/cook
Bynum/kwame
That is a dangerous team |

Everyone here knows that Karl is always in great shape and he will do anything for that one chance at a ring. |
Oh dear god no.
People have some crazy ideas. |

so now at 42 malone can shut down duncan in the playoffs after not touching a basketball for 2 years. get in touch with reality. the guy is old, so he retired. he's not going anywhere and his body was breaking down in his last season. what other retired guys do you want us to get? |
Vlade!
No team with two Vlade's could possibly lose!
