that Karl Malone doesnt have a ring, but his daughter got one her first year in the National Horseracing association, i mean the WNBA.

He'll do like Ray Bourque and get traded to a contender his last year

Or sign with the Lakers as a free agent.......

i have no respect for players that run to a team at the end of their career just try ang get a ring to me they really didn't earn it they were only there for one season in my opinion it's pathetic and tarnishes their legacy

I think rape is more of a legacy tarnisher than that......

agreed but not everyone commits rape

Dude ! Try and look at it from the athletes point of view. If you had been in the league for 20 years, were considered one of the 50 greatest ball players of all time. #1 teams, playoff contenders, you been there and done that but no ring, no championship.
Year after year after year after year the one thing you really want, maybe the only reason you still play and you can't achieve it. Then a great team offers you a **** load of money for one more realistic kick at the can and a chance to be the heart of it all. Would you turn that down ?

Rape? Oh you mean golddiggin *****es tryin to play a guy because he is rich......

i see it this way if you';ve spent 10 or 11 years years in the league and had your chance twice to win a ring and couldn't you had your chance don't go run to another bandwagon for one season to try to get a ring retire with some dignity like stockton did

who cares, there is no guarantee he will win anything. They got 2 hall of famers who are past their prime, and no bench. And kobe might not be there. san antonio and minnesota look scarrier that them.

excuse me 20 years in malones case and kobe said he's gonna play according to phil jackson i'm hoping this opens the door back up for the kings

he may play, but he has crap on his mind, and th efans will be relentless, and it might not be his decision to play, if he has court, he better go, cause his ass is on the line. And sac town should kick ass next yer, but man the spurs and minnesota look scary with their additions. Hedo will light us up when he plays us, i see it.

yah he will to hedo was a mistake to get rid of

yeah, san antonio is the team im most scared of, dallas by adding jamison doesnt do much for me, since they traded van exel to get it, jamison is undersized, but it allows finley to move back to the 2, but they still have no center. And minnesota looks good on paper with spreewell, but who knows how that will play out. Garnet had people around him now, so if they fail he will have no choice but to leave when he is a free agent at the end of the year.

yah i agree but my sleeper team this year is phoenix they are good and will onlyt get better

yeah stoudamire is a beast, but i dont see them doing much, the west is just stacked, i mean sac, la, san antonio, dallas and minnesota are at the top in my books, that doesnt even include portland and that is 6 spots right there.

well i think portland will crumble this year without pippern there and minnesota mmmm maybe if they can get out of the first round

yeah, but houston will be better also.

yah i forgot about houston too damn the west will be tough as hell this year
