I’m sticking with Karl Malone and John Stockton as my best in Jazz history.

I agree that we have to give the legends the respect they deserve. But I am sick and tired of dog referring to players from the Stone Age. The people that pistol Pete played against were mailmen and milkmen. They had other jobs besides basketball. Stop comparing these guys to players from that long ago. You wanna compare to the 90’s players. Fine. But 70’s, 60’s, 50’s? GTFOH

I agree with you. Even 80s and 90s had some questionable players. People forget how young the NBA is in the grand scheme of things. It was almost going bankrupt when Magic and Bird were drafted, you can’t tell me the talent pool was vast at the time. Now, the top 3 MVP candidates aren’t even American! It’s a young sport, and I think we still haven’t seen the end of its development.

@Oj Mosby that’s the thing. No matter what show he’s on he does it, whenever he wants to prove a point, he does it. I don’t think he’s joking at all. I think he’s completely serious about it

He’s nowhere near Karl Malone sorry. DM takes too long in a game to get going. I can’t imagine him having a better roster around him than he does now..so nahhh

SAS is way off with this take, and he’s letting his ulterior motives affect his takes. Pistol Pete, Malone, and Stockton are all better than Mitchell.

… what has Donovan done? Make the 2nd round, omg give him a statue lol. Stockton and Malone both made the finals. Heck Deron Williams, Andrei Kirilenko, and Carlos Boozer all made the western conference finals at Utah. Donovan has been playing terribly this post season and won’t even shoot wide open shots anymore because he’s missed so much. He’s definitely in the top 10 but not #1. He’s tied with the pizza guy that got MJ sick. Also way to disrespect Pistol Pete.

Before Daren Williams left Utah, he was better than CP3,… as a sidenote…. BUT the problem with talking heads talking about the Utah Jazz, is that they never have really watched the Jazz besides a few games here and there….

Karl Malone is a top 20 all time player, an MVP, All NBA defender, third all time in scoring, Mitchell isn’t even close.
