| And I'd like the Malone fans to answer this - if he's one of the top 10 all time players, how come, with a point guard who was the greatest pure point guard of all time, and a really good supporting cast and coach, Malone got bounced every single year by various other members of this list? Yes, granted, twice it was Jordan (the best, etc) and Pippen, but that was only twice - he played many more years than two, and got bounced by someone from this list almost every year. Why? I included Stockton on my list but not Malone. Malone got his numbers, but I think his being a numbers machine his whole career like that was due to Stockton. I think Stockton made Malone, not vice versa. If they'd both been as good as their numbers indicate, rather than just Stockton, they'd have won a title. |
