Karl Malone sounds like a man itching to become a Spur.
Declaring that the biggest obstacle to signing on with the Spurs isn't the
money they have - or don't have - to offer him, but his own desire to be
"100-Karl Malone percent" after surgery to repair a torn right knee
ligament, Malone said that since he became a free agent on July 1 he has had
productive talks about joining the Spurs.
"Without a doubt I'm serious (about the Spurs)," Malone said by phone Monday
evening. "I'm past the game-playing. It's not like going to college and you
want to talk to every team interested. That's not my intention. If I want to
continue to play I'd definitely like to be closer to back home."
Malone has a ranch in El Dorado, Ark., and grew up in Louisiana.
"I've had serious dialogue with them, and more than once," Malone said.
"I've talked to coach (Gregg) Popovich two or three times and (general
manager) R.C. (Buford) one or two times. They call about every other day.
I've had great dialogue with them." |

If they land a healthy Karl Malone, after signing Brent Barry, San
Antonio is going to have a big season - a win total in the high 60s.
The only question... Will Karl play center? |

Karl will probably back up the 4 and 5. Rasho is still a perfectly
servicable center. Especially now that Shaq will be in the East. >> Stay informed about: Malone to the Spurs? |

Why would Karl *ever* play center, Miguel? Particularly for the Spurs, as
Duncan is still a perfectly servicable center. Especially now that Shaq
will be in the East - Tim should consider starting at the "5". >> Stay informed about: Malone to the Spurs? |

This is my worst nightmare. I had hoped that Malone would never get a
ring, as he is my least favorite player. Now he might come to the
Spurs. Not sure how I am going to reconcile this. >> Stay informed about: Malone to the Spurs? |
