NBA Playoffs Throwback: Utah Jazz vs. San Antonio Spurs, 1998 Western Conference semifinals, Game 4
Karl Malone “delivers” 34 points on 17-28 shooting at the Alamodome against Tim Duncan and David Robinson. His jumpers like layups. The Jazz win the series 4-1 advancing to sweep the Lakers in the Western Conference finals before losing to Chicago in the NBA Finals.
The 2012 match-up starts with Game 1 on Sunday at 1pm EST on ESPN!
NBAO Time-Out w/ Karl Malone & Ahmad Rashad
John Stockton and Karl Malone have attended the yearly screening of the Rolling Stones’ documentary Cocksucker Blues every year since 1992.
![Now and again I like to experiment on Google images. This time I searched for “NBA bass fishing,” expecting a picture of Karl Malone erupting from beneath the surface of a shallow country stream. The fat middle of a smallmouth bass betwixt his ever clenching jaws.
Instead I found this picture of John Salley, a million miles away, trying to remember the words to the opening theme of Night Court. Only to find out later, after a quick YouTube search, THERE ARE NO WORDS.

32 days left until the 2010-11 NBA season tips off. Brought to you by the most memorable #32s in NBA history: Kevin McHale, Karl Malone, Magic Johnson, Shaq O’Neal, and Bill Walton. Happy Friday, y’all.
Karl Malone’s Louisiana Tour
Not that we are condoning occasionally funny late night comedians in black face, but this here’s an exception. Also make sure to do a search for the Karl Malone beanie babies skit from Crank Yankers.
In 1991 Isiah Thomas was left off of the original Dream Team, some say at the behest of Michael Jordan (those two didn’t like each other).
Subsequently, Thomas blamed John Stockton for stealing his Dream Team spot, and in their first regular season encounter the Pistons ran repeated iso’s so that Isiah could drop 40 points on Stockton’s head.
In their next encounter Karl Malone dropped something else on Isiah’s head.
Three-days-from-the-Hall-of-Famer Karl Malone gave Isiah Thomas plastic surgery and 40 stitches in 1991, courtesy of this elbow.
