I do not hate Malone or Stockton. I just do not really care about them that much. I wish Malone to recover (after the season is over) ,as I would wish any person to recover from their injury.
Thanks for the post, interesting article which I didn't encounter elsewhere. You can knock Malone for a lot of things - but love him or hate him - you CANNOT knock his work ethic. What is interesting about this article is what it says about the Lakers organization. Their staff missdiagnosed this injury. How are they doing with Kobe's shoulder and Shaq's toe - if they are/were even involved.
I can see how it might not be the Lakers' fault. The 'sprain', it says, is actually a mild tear which they said was safe to aggressively rehab. Could it be that Malone's fanatical training was too much wear that worsened the tear? Of course, he could be exactly right that they didn't see the tear.
Agreed. Sometimes I just wonder how a hated player would be rated if he would have played in a rox uniform for several years. Would they still be crybabies, fakers, whiners, quitters or would they be: genius, smart, tactic guru, etc.
They said Kobe was gonna miss a month. And he was playing after just 2 games! Talk about misdiagnosis.
I think that, by the time all is said and done, Karla's career will be "all for naught" as he will have won no championships. That is an accurate statement.
the beauty of it all is that carl is chasing abdul-jabbars all time scoring record and if im not mistaken needed at least two full seasons to come close. this injury and all the time he has missed will make it all the more unlikely that he will be the all time scorer. AWESOME! i also think its AWESOME how he was getting booed in utah the other night after playing there for 60 years. maybe jazz fans arent so dumb after all. i would never want to wish harm on somebody...except carl malone. a small payback for all the broken noses and bloody faces the he has given so many over the years. DEATH TO THE JAZZ!
