Come now brethren, wouldn't Karl Malone be perfect for what we want to do? Forgive him the sins of his past (being drafted by the Jazz and setting illegal screens which knock the Rockets out of the playoffs) and welcome him by offering him home team PJs. As Jim Rome put it, he's the NBA's lone black redneck and a hard worker to boot. ------------------ There are 3 kinds of people: those who can count and those who can't.

This is probably the worst trade in the history of any sport. I would rather see the Rocks be the Clippers than see the God Damn Mother ****ing Malone in a Rockets Uniform. I am a big Barkley fan. Where ever he plays, I root for that team. When he was in Philly, I was a Philly fan. When he was in Pheonix, I was a Suns fan. When he came to Houston, I became a big Houston fan. Now that he's retired, I am still a Rockets fan because you know why? Because of the fans, Rudy T. and the organization. The Rockets staffs and fans shows LOYALTY. Trading Hakeem would be a disgrace. I did not even consider trading Hakeem to the Raptors. Why would I trade him to the Jazz for that Bull**** Malone. I hate him. I just hate that guy. If anyone would suggest this trade again, I would personally fly to Houston (from the Philippines) to shoot him. I dont know about you guys but I am not so desperate to win. Every team goes through rebuiding process. We are far ahead of Utah. We are on our way up while they are going down. Sure, they may beat us next season but what happens after next year. I say that if Duncan leaves San Antonio, the Jazzhole will win the division but watch out for Dallas and Houston. When Stockton retires and Malone forces a trade, We are the only team 2gether with Dallas who will fight for the Midwest Division. Bottom line is: Just wait for one or 2 more seasons and see what happens. Have faith with Rudy. Running a team is not that easy and most importantly, Never ever deal with the Jazzhole. The only player that I like from them is Stevenson. ------------------
What exactly did Malone do besides play real well against the rockets to make Houston fans want to kill the guy? I don't hate the guy at all, he's probably the hardest working basketball player in the league, I can't think of anyone in the NBA right now that deserve a championship ring more then Stockton and Malone. Hate the JR Riders of the league not the Karl Malone's. ------------------ You ain't gotta like me, you just mad cause I tell it how it is, and you tell it how it might be.
I have no problem with Malone in a Rockets uniform, but why would he want to move from a playoff team to a lottery team. It doesn't really make sense for Karl. He's going to be traded to a team with chemisty. Such as Indiana, Miami, New York, Portland, Los Angeles or Toronto... if he's traded at all. I have a feeling we will see him in a Laker or Pacer uniform if he doesn't retire a Jazz. Likelihood. He retires a Jazz. ------------------ humble, but hungry.

"What exactly did Malone do besides play real well against the rockets to make Houston fans want to kill the guy?" How quickly we forget the infamous bear-hugging incident of 1997... ------------------ WE WILL WATCH THEM FALL... next year, at least.
I have to come out of semi-retirement to say this. People who follow people around the league and root for the team that they now play for and claim to know what's up with that team make me ill. Ya'll remember DreamStill Kills? "I'm only a Rockets Fan because I like Hakeem." Guess what buddy you are NOT a Rockets fan. You are just waiting around for another guy to latch onto like the leech that you are. Please, go watch Vince Carter so I don't have to read your babble any longer. ------------------ The truth is out there.
I don't understand how anyone who has watched basket ball at all in the past two decades can defend this trade. The fact that someone would even think of it is wretched. This isn't just something between the Rockets and Jazz.......this is the entire league against the Jazz. They are a hated, dirty team. A decent person like Shandon knows this and gets out. Hated, dirty people like Malone and Stockton play their entire careers there and enjoy it. ------------------ Kenny Thomas had a foul called on him in the Western Conference Finals.
And another thing... For you people that would embrace Malone- WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU SMOKING?!?! Let's review some facts... Hakeem Olajuwon brought the city of Houston two championships. Karl Malone brought Utah... let me see here there's gotta be something... wait... oh, I guess he didn't bring anything home to Utah. So you'd be willing to trade the biggest legend the city has ever had for arguably the worst enemy the Rockets have ever had? Yeah, that's some great judgement. ------------------ WE WILL WATCH THEM FALL... next year, at least.
I would never trade Dream for Malone but I don't hate Malone the way you guys seem to. The guy has worked has ass off his whole entire career, he deserves a title the same way Barkley deserves a title. ------------------ You ain't gotta like me, you just mad cause I tell it how it is, and you tell it how it might be.
Hey anti should I tell everyone about my website again? If anyone needs info about my website look at my profile. Enjoy! ------------------ "We need to fockass".....Dream back in the day

I heard that Malone might end up with the Knicks. But that has nothing to do with the Rockets, does it? ------------------ I Want To Thank God For Making Me A Rocketfan
Almu-Don't you see it? This move has direct correlation to the latest NBA/NBC ploy-rekindle classic battles. It's already into effect (Bird vs. Johnson) And the next one will be Hakeem vs. Ewing. Along the way, Hakeem will battle Shaq, and David Robinson. The twist this time, are the new faces, Malone, and Francis. Malone will be there to help Ewing. I was able to sneak into NBC's master plan file, and they plan on it ending it with Francis going up for a dunk, and Malone hitting him with a blind cheap shot, Hakeem will leap out of nowhere for a an alleyoop over Ewing as the ball squirts out of Francis' hand, and time is running out, for a victory in his last season. Pretty cool huh? ------------------ The more lefties on your team, the better. Collier is Seven Foot and Left Handed. How can you go wrong? Trade or bench Kenny Thomas.
I've seen some pretty stupid trade suggestions on this BBS before, but this, by far, takes the cigar. Malone for Dream? Yea, OK buddy! Undercover Jazzholes, they're everywhere!!! ------------------ Great players aren't always great, they're only great when they have to be
Malone the Rocket? Utah can send him any where but here. If Hell had an expansion team that would be a perfect spot for the Cheater. Oh Hell does have a team.... the Jazz. Leave him to die in Utah ------------------
