Karl Malone Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Karl Malone:

You're a professional. You don't need for me to break a film down for you. If you want to stop the guy you're playing, they pay you millions of dollars. You get you a TV and break the player down yourself.

I never felt I had the kind of relationship with Magic that I could just pick up the phone and call him at home.

Karl Malone

If I could have come in for $10m, I would have done that. I've been pretty smart with my money. I'm playing because I want to play this game here - I want the opportunity.

Karl Malone

You take the good with the bad and try not to listen to everything said about you because you know it's not good.

Karl Malone

I spent a lot of time doing things other people wanted me to do, so I'm doing what I want to do now.

You're a professional. You don't need for me to break a film down for you. If you want to stop the guy you're playing, they pay you millions of dollars. You get you a TV and break the player down yourself.

For me to be here tonight, everything had to be perfect. I had to get drafted by Utah, had to play with a point guard like John Stockton, and had to be coached by Jerry Sloan and Frank Layden.

Karl Malone

Some people might not like him because he's my son. But be respectful, go out there and enjoy the game.

Karl Malone

To catch the ball, face up, look at all of my options and then pass. I was playing hot potato. I didn't want to be the guy to stall the triangle.

I have such a profound respect for what they do day in and day out. This USO tour is especially meaningful because of the friends I have met and I am honored to be apart of it.

I just want to make a name for myself and get to the next level.

Karl Malone

I have my life on a track that I want it on, and I don't want to get off.

Karl Malone

It takes people a while to trust you.

Karl Malone

I don't know what my label is. I just think of myself as a plain forward. I like to think I have some finesse to my game, but inside the paint is where men are made. If you can't play there, you should be home with your mama.

Karl Malone

I have many friends and family members who have served (or are currently serving) in our nation's Armed Forces. I have such a profound respect for what they do day in and day out.

Karl Malone

Even though I left for a year, I grew here as a Jazz man. If I'm fortunate enough to go into the Hall of Fame, I will go as a Jazz man.

You have injuries that bother you when you're not playing. When that horn blows, you don't feel it.

Did you really think I would sell you out?

Karl Malone

At some point in time I will be honored if I would be mentioned as a coach.

Karl Malone

Look at this, scabs and cuts all over me, I get these every night, every game. They can't tell you that you're not at risk, and you can't tell me there's one guy in the N.B.A. who hasn't thought about it.

Karl Malone

I just work out hard enough that, if I'm craving something, I eat it and know I'm going to burn it off the next day with extra intensity.

Sometimes, you follow your dreams. I say to the young people, 'If you have a dream, chase it.'

Karl Malone

They changed the floor back to old school. They changed the uniform back to old school. Somebody tell the damn players to start playing like old school.

Karl Malone

But I think anybody who believes I could force coach Sloan to resign is crazy. He's stronger than that and personally if I said that to him, he'd probably go tell me to go do something.

Karl Malone

I'll make the right decision, whichever one it is. I have to be 100 percent, not 95 or 99.

Karl Malone

Somebody tell the damn players to start playing like old school.

Everything I've been through, everything I'm about to go through in my career and my life, if my family wasn't with me and didn't support me, it would be really tough.

I have to be working, doing things. That's the way I grew up and the way I was taught.

I can do something physically the other guy can't. I know the other guy has not dedicated himself the way I did.

I hope I did it the way my peers did it before me. I didn't do anything but try to play hard.

Forget the technique. Hit the guy across from you. Don't let somebody come in your space.

Karl Malone

When I said I retired from basketball playing, I have retired. You will not see me play again. That is a promise.
