I don't think Karl Malone was the best Power Foward ever.There's no way. I remember him choking a couple times aganst MJ and the Bulls,like when MJ stole it from Karl and took it down the court for a layup with like a minute left. Barkley was a choker too. To me,if a player can't get it done with the game on the line,they're pretty much worthless.
So who's better than Karl Malone? The numbers don't lie. Steve Kerr hit a shot that won the Bulls the championship in 1997. Would you trade Barkley or Malone for Steve Kerr straight up? I don't think so.
Like I said in a previous post, I can't stand Karl Malone, but putting my feelings aside I still have to the guy his props. Outside of Bob Pettit and maybe Elvin Hayes, I don't think there's another power forward who even is worthy of being considered.
