To celebrate the news that we will likely see Karl Malone inducted into the Hall of Fame this year, here is a little piece of the past, as the Mailman Delivers his own special post on top of everyone in the NBA.
It’s easy to forget what a force Malone was. Perhaps you only remember his mid-range jump-shooting days late in his career. Perhaps you only thought of him as the guy benefiting from John Stockton‘s unselfishness. But watch this video and you’ll soon be captivated by his raw power. Power that came at you like an unstoppable freight train, or perhaps a big old rig on the open road (the type the Mailman has driven in reality for years).
When you watch LeBron James you see amazing power, coupled with ferocious pace. Malone had even greater power, without the pace. Watch how he dunks with no chance for anyone to stop him — he is just too strong. Oh, and check out the elbow then-Orlando Magic point guard Scott Skiles cops in the head!
