Of course when Karl Malone did it it was ok. I realize there are some differences, but didn't the lakers win it all in 00,01 and 02? Then they lost in conf championship in 03. I'm not sure you can say that anyone went for a ring more than he did.
Seemed to disappear in some pretty big games in crunch time. Anyone that's gets involved with WWE has to be knocked down several notches.
Yes he was a great player but you say "At least Karl Malone chose to go to the team that lost the western conference finals and helped them get over a hump." Is a little misleading.
