Malone is not coming to the Jazz reunion event due to "prior" commitments

It's too bad if he's holding that against the Jazz. Karl has been very all over the place in retirement and I seriously doubt he would have held down some sort of permanent job offer from the Jazz when there's so much hunting and fishing to be done.

That and his family lives in Louisiana. He still has kids in HS and he has a son at LSU. He probably likes living where he lives close to his family. I also really doubt the coaching staff wants his help that much. Being a great player doesnt not equal being able to teach. The thing I remember most about Malone's last session with Favors/Gobert/Kanter is that he was baffled that players wear modern protective gear like compression sleeves and knee braces.
 
I thought it was a nice idea by the jazz, even if it makes me feel so old.

Too bad Malone can't make it, but then he always had a way of disappearing in big games....
 
When I first heard of the re-union I was 50/50 that Malone would come anyways. He doesn't want to come or he legit has a prior engagement. Not a big deal at all. Not everyone goes to high school re-unions. Does it ruin it for everyone else? Of course not. It will still be an awesome night and we will kick some ***. His wife mentioned this almost a full month ago.

I dunno, my take is that's the kind of person Malone is. If he isn't the main attraction he doesn't feel like showing up.



He'll show up on his terms, in his own time and free will.
 
It's four phone calls:

1. Karl, what dates can you do?

2. John, here's the dates Karl can do it, how about you?

3. Horny, here's the dates that John and Karl can do, pick one.

4. Jerry, you have season tickets, wear a tie for this one.

Then you fire up the promotion plan for it.

Then 1 group email to Bryon Russel, Shandon Anderson, Adam Keefe, Chris Morris, Greg Foster, Antoine Carr, Howard Eisley, and Stephen Howard:
"hey guys, why don't you come for this game we'll do something at halftime. You can even get a free ice cream from Farr's Fresh.

Then a week after the game:
OH **** OSTERTAG! We didn't have your email.

I guarantee he's going to film some statement

"Hey Y'all it's the mailman. sure wish I could be there but I'm running guns in my Hardee's 16-wheeler for hunting fine-*** Mexican chicks. Miss y'all and I'll see you soon."

Haha.. I think it's more like 1 phone call to Karl on the date he prefers, and a group email to everyone else to come on that day.

Nah, the call is this: Karl and John, can you be there when Horny comes to town to try and run that ****ty triangle offense? No, ok, let's do this another time then, maybe during a playoff game after horny get's canned by Phil? OK.

By the way, Karl, it will be an unbelievable function, so get off your bass fishing boat...
 
I totally forgot that Hornacek is coaching the Knicks.

Poor guy. We should get Operation Underground Railroad to extract him while he's in town.

I don't feel too bad for him, he will get paid for like 3 years to sit on his couch or even get paid double to coach another team.
