not knowing about his personal life, I hated Malone because of his flopping. the biggest guy on the court falling on his back from a touch, complaining to the refs, all the while handing out sneaky dirty foul after dirty foul.

How is a cheap-shot on Isaiah Thomas ranked higher than impregnating a 13-year-old?

Those late 80's games like the one Karl elbowed Isiah in are great games to watch on replay even now.

You have an outstanding site. Very even-handed commentary and no histrionics. I wish you all the best with it.

I was thinking Isaiah was next. After all, he ruined one league and one franchise. But, damn, Malone is a low-life. He’s lucky he didn’t spend decades in prison. Great job making the case, T. Looking forward to the next one.

Karl “17 years” Malone

For point number 1, Isiah wasn't exactly the most likeable player either. We could even argue that he's one of the most hated for the exact same reasons as Malone. So him receiving an elbow to the face from the mailman was like a taste of his own medicine.

New subscriber. Great piece. Keep it going

I wish the basketball today would disappear and reappeared has 80’s and 90’s basketball

always your biggest viewer bro!!

keep working great vid

Great content man keep it up!!!!

for anyone who can't hear, you can easily find access to the fact listed in this video by searching "Karl Malone 13"

Neighborhood guy!!??? 🙅‍♀️🙅‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

When is the kobe anf colorado one coming? Great videos bro

His elbows belong in the hall of fame.

The bow to David Robinson was worse than the Isiah one

a very well rounded game he had, even improved on the free throw massively...and he was on that line all the time ranked highest in free throws 😆

no rings for karl malone...says it all

I loved The Mailman growing up.

I'd say the thing about Magic and HIV is one of the few positive things that Karl Malone used his Karl Malone-ness for. Like you said, at that time, people didn't know things and people were scared and sometimes it takes a world class asshole to say what needs to be said. I would have loved to have more Magic Johnson seasons but it would have been a huge distraction all the time. It's just a shame really.

3:01 besides the elbow to the face, I wish this was how defense was played in the nba.

Seeing people still wearing Karl malone jerseys st jazz games is just weird now

Karl Malone has good genetics??? Not in the brain or soul department. Also, he was a major choker at the free throw line. At least he's not aging well...Bad Karma does not do a body good.

“Hey cowboy what you hunting” kinda opened the doors for a flirtatious line

Damn , another Chester , 13yo ? Im sure hes well protected now doing the same things .

I never saw Vernon Maxwell or Xavier McDaniel play without landing a cheap shot or trying to start a fight. Both were good players and both are articulate when commenting on basketball -- Off court they seem like nice guys. Once Vernon ("Mad Max") was about to stab Hakeem in the locker room with a piece of broken glass when the police charged in with guns drawn. Xavier seemed genuinely disgusted by players who tried to walk away from a fight (like Scotty Pippen) and he would just pound on them all game long.

Bro said hunting for young Mexican girls 😂🤠

his elbows got everyone........he was notorious

nah nah nah he is probably the most hated for having the most signature flops in NBA history. Lets be serious, it would take a tank or mac truck to move this guy from inside the key and he would barely get bumped by someone Isaiah's size flail around like he got fouled. The term flop should have Karl Malone's picture in the dictionary. Was he a great player yes, but when you constantly have to act to get to the free throw line it gets old. As the video shows you he was kind of a dirty player but nowhere near Laimbeer levels.

Thomas had nothing to complain about, he played for the dirtiest team ever lol

Lol i wonder why Karl Malone hasn't been cancelled yet

He was a monster truly a terrible human being

What a player!!

As an ardent(and old), Bad Boys fan, I can assure you Malone was NOT the most hated player in the league…..lol I.e. Lambeer, Mahorn, etc.

Isiah had that elbow coming, he played dirty as did all the Pistons, Karl just gave the pistons a taste of their own medicine. Didn't hear Isiah bitching when Laimbeer was doing similar every other game. Weird how the Pistons didn't want to start a fight with the front court of Malone and Eaton.

Ok, off the court, he was not a role model. I came to this channel to hear about guys that were hated for their actions on the court and/or surrounding the game. Isiah Thomas situation was what it was.

6:40 😒 BRUH how you going to record a video with your fire alarm beeping like that?

Buddy, Malone vs Isiah was not out of the blue. Better research needed.

I’m 40. I only like girls 20-30. Well I guess it’s to late

I was never a fan of Malone he is a creep discounting dude I'm surprised he's not in jail for everything he's done. 😏 He is lucky. But no worries karma always get people later on in life when they grow old trust the process for all creeps or those who do wrong you never get away with it.

Karl Malone is hated because he likes to go down on em when they're green

Can't stand this guy but gotta respect his skill 😂

Malone is hated because he don’t embrace the black gangsta culture

Lawrence Taylor also did some bad shit too but no one gives him shit for that and still praise him

Listen to him speak. The lack of intelligence is evident after about 5 seconds.

I guess Stockton has to have some cognitive dissonance going then and now.

Malone is trash incarnate, but the comments abouth Magi, given the context and the time, are not something i'd hild against him.

Malone is NOT a dick because he was afraid to play against magic. Thats simply insane

Malone was great. Stop with the hate.

Karl Malone Smh.. 👎✌️

all this time Karl was just "Black White Trash" who knew???? well apparently about 3 of his kids, one 13 year old girl he took to pound town and Kobe's Family haha what a winner

Who does not being a father make him a hated man? He never had a father either

Who cares if Malone cracked onto Kobe's wife? Hardly the crime of the century considering Kobe cheated on his wife a bunch of times himself, so who is he to get all pissy when some guy gives his wife the oppurtunity to cheat?. Guys have been sleeping with each others wives for thousands of years, unless you know them personally you shouldn't care.

Funny how Larry Bird did the same thing and had nothing to do with his oldest daughter but that's never brought up.

I'll fight Kobe over Vanessa right now!

For as despicable as Malone was off the court, his recent dedication to rectify his previous wrongdoings is admirable. He has stated some of his many regrets and has tried to build relationships with all of his adult children. It sucks when people act like shitbags but at some point we should still appreciate it when they aspire to be better people.

Who cares what a guy is like off the court? I’m a fan of their play, not who they are as men.

A quick google search... Lebron James is the most hated athlete of this generation, not only in the NBA, but all of sports. You can start with him leaving teams every time he faces a roadblock to winning rings, the flopping and whining, a 6-9 250lb grown man flopping on 6'0 guards that he outweighs for 50 to 60 lbs, his prioritizing of garbage stats over wins, alienating and trading young players before they develop, then destroying franchises because of poor roster decisions and lack of young talent development, always asking for more help even if he has 1 or 2 all-star teammates who can explode for 50 points in any given night, walking out and giving up on the game and leaving his teammates behind, chocking on close out games especially on crucial free throws, scoring 7 and 8 points in a postseason game - simply choking, building a team of old all-star players then missing the playoffs entirely, self-proclaiming himself as king and goat when nobody in the history of the game has ever claimed it before, not Kareem, not Magic, not Bird, not Michael, only the narcissist LeFlop. It is so bad that LeFraud fans are being called Bronsexuals for completely disregarding his failures, especially when his greatness is based on cherry-picked achievements and stats and not seeing the full picture. I guess only fellow narcissists love this guy. Recently, he was booed at the Super Bowl. I've never seen a top athlete booed in any big event.

The 13 year old girl is obviously wrong but you've gotta realise where Karl came from, this was nothing particualry unusual in the place he grew up. A lot of older country guys did the same, Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis. Not defending it but it wasn't as unusual to people in that area at that time, especially if you grew up poor. It was still thought of as wrong, but not nearly as wrong as it is today. I also don't think there's anything wrong with Malone said about Magic, he really believed he could catch aids that way. It's not like he was trashing Magic as a man, he really just thought it was possible.
