Bring On Karl Malone
Posted: Thu Feb 24, 2011 7:04 am
Two weeks ago when Malone opined about wanting to coach, while simultaneously intimating that Sloan didn't leave, but was pushed out...I was strongly against bringing him in because I felt he was too opinionated against Deron as the possible root cause of sending Sloan packing. I felt it would work against us retaining Deron.
Now, I am all for Malone. Just think, he could come in and sculpt Favors physically and help Jefferson become the super tandem they could be. He could greatly improve their rebounding technique, and post positioning, as well as just mentoring these guys how to become great. I can see even in a lockout year Malone getting Favors into Malonesque shape, as well as Jefferson. Have them down to Arkansas working out:). Maybe he doesn't need to be a bench coach, maybe something like Horny did for shooting...but I like the idea of bringing him in.
