Bird as a rookie led the Celtics to 61 wins and that same team minus Bird won 29 the year before
it wasn't the same team
the celtics added the great bill fitch and tiny archibald was also healthy
Is Karl Malone underrated?

Better than curry in the clutch tho,
Don't act like his reg season number have translated to the post season, dude gets shook in May. Reggie tho steps his game up.
He will always be Mr. Perfect to me.
I agree...Dirk would've forever looked sawft if he never won a ring...Dominque...Barkley...Malone and Stockton all suffer on peoples "All Time" list because they did not have the supporting cast to help them get one...but Durant is going to be looked at as a beta no matter what now

Your argument doesn't take context into the equation
Malone ran into the 90s bulls they were denying everyone then.

He had a reputation of being a good passer before being drafted
Even of Malone win some titles, he not close to Bird

Nah, KD will be the leading scorer on a team that is probably going to be the next dynasty.I agree...Dirk would've forever looked sawft if he never won a ring...Dominque...Barkley...Malone and Stockton all suffer on peoples "All Time" list because they did not have the supporting cast to help them get one...but Durant is going to be looked at as a beta no matter what now

Nope, he's right where he should be, top 25 player.
Hmmm....
You do make a meaningful point there.
No, that just adds more "stupid" to the problem.
Ring-counters are stupid. That doesn't mean that legitimately looking at your ability to perform in the postseason isn't a valid point. Karl Malone shouldn't be penalized for some stupid "But he doesn't have a ring!" argument with no context. But it IS fair to look at the teams he was on and his performance and say, "Should he have at least gotten THOSE teams further than he did, and did he show that he could take over and elevate a team when he needed to?"
Kevin Durant going to the Warriors proves NOTHING. It doesn't prove that he can elevate a team, it doesn't prove that he can take over when he needs to. Ring-chasing doesn't help your legacy. Actually performing in the postseason does.
I dunno....Stockton led the WCC in scoring, assists, and steals and nearly made the Olympic team (was dropped in the same cut as Terry Porter and Charles Barkley). He would have had more assists in college if his team hadn't been leaning on his to score 20+ ppg himself.
They made each other. Stockton being the NBA's career leader in both assists and steals isn't from Malone alone.
I swear, this guy comes up with the stupidest things on the whole Coli...
Just because it happened in black-and-white back when your vertical was more than 4" doesn't mean it was better, Art.
