At 21, Karl Malone averaged 30 minutes a game.

This NBA fan and former player culture is toxic as fukk.
You're stupid.. He wasn't the #1 pick he was #13 so of course he got less minutes. From year 2 til the end of his career he averaged 35+ MPG..

No one plays 40 minutes a night in the regular season anymore. That said, it's not a controversial or outrageous statement. What I wanna know is did he keep it a buck regarding who bust his ass?

He's actually just 20. If he gets in top shape, the sky's the limit for him. He's already all-star status right now.


I agree, he can change. However, most of the time that ethic just has to been in you from jump. If being a college star and drafted number 1 didn't wake up him to staying in shape...what will?

I'm in my 40s. He came to my shytty HS to meet one of the players. HS was so crappy they made the movie Sunset Park about it.


I'm from Sunset Park, I remember being in the theater with my whole hood.

Movie had nothing to do about the neighborhood though. :francis:


I hear TV doesn't do justice as to how big these NBA players really are.

For the first time in his life he actually has to PLAY DEFENSE and he aint ready for it....YET.

He is just a kid getting humbled a bit right now. I think he will bounce back once he realizes he needs to focus more on his game. But he has to grow up a little.

If he aint careful though, he may end up looking like Wedge

He said Buck Williams and Maurice Lucas. He told a story about how he hit a and 1 on Lucas and than bumped him. And at the free throw line Lucas told him never do that shyt again. And he just responded with yes sir:mjlol:

its not 40 mpg.

And Thibs using RJ Barrret like that is EXACTLY why he is a shyt hire. He has a history of wearing down his players and ultimately ruining some of their careers. I learned that from heads who pointed that out on this board years ago.

that was the LAST name to bring up.

was that because of endurance or because of the coach and roster at the time.................... :usure:


Are you arguing that Karl Malone wasnt in top shape here or what was the point of your post ?
Malone is equating Zion being out of shape the reason he not playing 40mins .

Malone was in pristine shape & not playing 40 , what does that tell you .

Also when was this statement made ?

exactly Thibs had dudes out there playing 37-40 minutes a night. I thought he even alluded to he learned that wasn’t for the best while he was on his hiatus and going to assist teams and learn how to upgrade his offensive philosophy.

now should Zion be playing 34-36 I definitely think so. No body at this point should be playing 40 minutes a night anymore. Remember how AI would just be in the whole game :russ:
