I love that almost everyone has an inside joke with Barkley somewhere in their speech. Got to love Chuck.
Lol. Charles is awesome!
He still is
They played in a international tournament in 1982 while in college.
Karl Malones voice doesn’t match his body type
and he does not sound black at all
@@dick19880328 all old heads sound same
minghai lan how do u sound a color lol
@@azariahgaming3254 its called accent or dialect and choose of vocabulary.
@@King-Alexander- haha I’m Chinese and know my voice and accent just sounds a typical Chinese
Wow. Amazing speech. The Mailman saved his best delivery for last.
smooth
That was so corny but 👏👏
S.S .A he's here for his basketball achievements. Not his offcourt life.
@@somerealnews6312 man shut up you idiot. You just dumb
too bad he couldnt deliver on sunday.
Im making a joke. I love Karl malone too, and he will always be my favorite power forward.
'what good is success if you've got no one to share it with' - true words, Karl
Paperbagman555 he shared it with vanessa lol
MIKE C lmao😂
Charmander Charmander You are 100% I have no respect for him nor did he raise his son and that show Beyond the glory portrayed him as this loving caring parent he did not raise the twins he had either but provided for them after their mother took him to court .How do you be so rich and not provide for your children.
MIKE C Lmaoo
Cough Jordan
Karl Malone put the Power in Forward.
Yeah, but when faced with real adversity he throws cheap elbows. He's just like a bully...faced with someone his own size and he gets dirty.
HAHA :D Good one

@@DriveLaken But Dennis Rodman takes it all day
@@DriveLaken never faced much adversity, back in his day basketball was a physical sport.
37 thousand points, 15 thousand rebouds, 2 MVPs, one of the greatest players in history and he entered in HOF twice. But still appears nobodys with stupid "no rings" argument. The low post, the fast break, the shooting. Ring or no ring he was a beast. Who can put 24-10-4 during 20 fucking years? Only Abdul Jabbar did it. Glad he brought Willis Reed. One of the greatest and underrated centers of all time.
its a miracle what steroids can do for the body.
Mr. Entringer this comment was 4 years ago. I was 12 when ny father brought me to Barcelona to watch em. Barkley was the best baller there. But people really moved out o the way when Malone was coming diwn the lane. Man's man.
He's also a class a piece of fucking dog shit you forgot that bit of information you brain washed sheep
Also a guy who raped a 13 year old
Didnt he get a ring with the lakers
Karl and Stockton deserved a championship
Then they should have won
Stockton was a short,slow white guard, he couldn’t succeed in today’s NBA.
wrong place wrong time. Got rammed by the Goat
@@mickfunny4185 what
Severus short slow white PGs ant succeed in today’s NBA
I wasn't the biggest fan of the Mailman, but he did play in the Jordan, Magic, and Bird era and deserves to be a hall of Famer. His speech is moving and he was truly touched. Bravo!
It would of been cool to see Stockton go up with the Mailman.
"Would have", not "would of".
His elbow is the best on nba history.
great player.. its a shame that players like him, Barkley or Patrick Ewing didn't win a ring.. or Dominique
Iverson, Nash, Mcgrady.
Ricky Moss one man stopped them all
That's why i always believed rings are a testament to the greatness of a team but not so to a player. Karl and so many fantastic players may not have rings but no one can touch their legacies as players of the game.
Sarken mcgrady has one with spurs
Terrorize v1
Macgrady overrated
His children....well the ones that can be there
Shut up
Lmao fax
this man was so underrated he’s literally never in top 5 talks but he’s 2nd all time in points
Cause he never got that ring. It's a shame he was only surrounded by 1 star.
@@garywants8281 a lot of greats don’t have a ring because of Mike
Stupidest comment ever! He’s recognized as one the best ever.
WRONG. MY FATHER LEBRON IS SECOND IN POINTS
@@WyWid this was a year ago, calm down buddy
That southern accent
Hell yeah. Cowboy accent
PERRR-SON
Yes that's because he's from Louisiana
You think maybe he was raised down south you dumb bitch.
DaffyDuckFan yeah I said I like his southern accent.
3:00 R.I.P. Mr. Sloan
🐐💯
Karl "The Mailman" Malone what a career and what a nickname...The Mailman delivers and did for many years.
then we realized theres no more mail, i mean The MaiL Man.
Except on Sundays ❤️
actually it was the male man because he was very masculine
Great modest guy. Same as John Stockton, maybe that's why they were like brothers. Shame that they never won NBA championship. They deserved it.
EDP’s favorite athlete
6 minutes, bro?
Jeff Hornacek couldn't get an honorable mention, though?
Georgie Arn too many ppl to thank. Short and simple 😎
Malone was also a known douche bag
Was he a hall of famer??
He doesn't give a shit.
@@bigblakbubba1289
Boo
I met the Mailman in Vegas with his son once. He was really stoked to meet me and even introduced me to his son. Thanks for all those years of putting on such a great show for us all.
Who are you?
Exactly what he said...who are you? The mailman was stoked to meet you??
@@trevd2087 he's a troll.
I'd be stoked to meet you too. Can we make it happen ? 😂
Lies, I need proof
I agree with you. Malone is overlooked because he never won a ring, but people forget how good he was. Over the course of 19 seasons, he averaged 25 ppg on 51.6% shooting! Along with 10 rpg. Amazing numbers considering his longevity.
He’s also overlooked for liking kids.
I remember as kid watching him and thinking how does he not miss any shots. Pure class.
Karl Malone - all time great player, all time terrible human.
I also grew up in that small town of Summerfield La. He and my oldest brother played basketball together and graduated together. I new him and his family as a child. His mother had a small store in Holy Ridge. We would stop there after church somedays. She new that my favorite candy was those little strawberry flavored candies with the wrapper that looked like a strawberry. Sometimes she would sneak one into my hand. She was a lovely woman. I have many other stories that has to do with Karl but this one that includes his mother is my fondest. Congrats Karl. You deserve it.
2 mvps and 3 denied children
Karl and John as a duo is a great axample of a tandem. always looking for each other to get the job done.
that was one of the most respectful and humble acceptance speeches I have ever witnessed. It was Simple, Heartfelt, Honest.
So honest he never mentioned he knocked up a 13 year old.
Maybe the best forward ever. Hard to say since there have been so many great ones. His durability and longevity are greater than any other.
That’s what a hall of Fame speech should be. It was so humble that it was great!!
My favourite player when i was a kid in the 90s, instead of spending his millions on a Mazerati or a Ferrari he bought a massive 18 wheller truck so he could just drive it around. I didn't mind at all when he went to LA so he could get a ring, if anyone deserved one it was him (and Stock of course)
Rangda Rangda Pulled up next to him at a stoplight once in his giant, lifted, chromed-out Chevy truck on State Street in SLC. He could see I was in awe of his truck before I realized who it was. He just tipped his cowboy hat, smiled, and left me in the dust so-to-speak.
Stockton deserved a ring Malone didn’t he deserved a jail cell
Karl Malone..... Great player. Nuff said
Tomi Igo How is that even relevant to what he said, all he said was that Karl is a great player, which he is. Kobe was never mentioned
Jake Ruka fck Malone
@Tomi Igo best reply ever! almost pissed my pants
@Tomi Igo kobe is trash
More like cho mo
Dear Karl, you are not just the best power forward in the history of NBA. As you say, it’s not about that. I think you’re best athlete ever. You and John, you complete each other. Perfect duo. I’m European and as a kid I spent so many nights watching your games. 95-99 seasons. And I’m so thankfull for that. You Karl and John, you are simple the best!!!! Best regards!
He not even a top 3 PF
@@gunny-lneck4352 you on crack bruh
@@myskrillaa dirk, Kevin Garnett, Hakeem, Tim Duncan, rodman, Moses malone, giannis etc. you on crack if you think this mans top 3
@@gunny-lneck4352 hakeem and moses malone were centers and malone is better than rodman and dirk. so tim duncan kg then malone
@@myskrillaa how many chips Malone got? Dirk got 1 without a second star. Against lebron and his big 3 in there primes. With multiple seasons of being 1st seed along with 2 mvp’s and a finals MVP. Along with hakeem and Malone being drafted and played power foward till there team went smaller. They are power fowards. There are numerous power fowards better than Malone. But I’d agree if you’d say he’s a top 3 scoring foward
Ive watched his battles with the bulls in my highschool days. This guy was a tank. A very solid tank.
One of the all time greatest! Hats off to the Karl “the mailman” Malone 🙏🏻
Great speech Karl, short simple and meaningful.
One of the greatest scorers of all time.
This is a good speech from a really good player.
It made me cry :)
I grew up in a country where Rugby is everything but I fell in love with the Bulls of the 90s but the more I got into basketball the more I did research on other teams and it was Stockton & Malone that caught my eye and I’ve been a Jazz fan since the 90s thank you Malone for the memories wooohoooo JAZZ!!
What a great speech. Very humble. Well respected.
Yeah he didn't even mention how he raped 13 year old children so very humble
@@hoggers7572 yeah true but sorry that has nothing to do with this speech being humble.
Karl and John best duo to not have a ring 🙌🏻
What a great list. Not impressive
Payton & Kemp too
Nash and Stoudemire?
@@hlebrosicky imo karl and stockton are both better than stoudemire and nash
@@myskrillaa 100% not even close
Dude was a real deal back in his prime. Very nice speech, very humble legend #realtalk
We appreciate you mailman for those memoirs from UTAH JAZZ.
The Great Mr. Karl Malone. 🤙🏿❤️ thank you for the great memories.
One of my favorite players of all time. Shame him and Stockton didnt win 1 championship.
They won Olympic gold, though...
Well, if you don't shed a tear watching that, you ain't got a heart. Well done Mailman, always delivers!
Mailman delivered every single time on the court !! Great athlete and to me best power forward ever ! Much deserved hall of famer !
Not on sundays
She was 13 karl
Different time, different culture…
@@AdolfDahmer bro what the hell
Top player. Legend. I try to imitate his shot. I love how Malone played.
this dude is extremely well spoken an was a hell of a competitor
Hell of a child rapist too. All timer.

Probably the best player in history,without the ring. One last delivery from the Mailman!
Knocked up a 13 year old, when he was in his 20's...
Karl Malone, worked his butt off! A great player and very genuine!
sharpest elbows in the league!!!
he damn near killed David Robinson. on "accident"....
best strongest power forward to ever play the game right there!!!!
Right? And David Robinson was not a small man either! A 7'1" giant himself!
If he could of left Kobe's wife alone he could of had 2 or 3 rings and possibly the all time scoring record. I'm not judging I'm just saying.
Now LeBron is on his way to 39,000-40,000 points
Yes u are judging
Basketball's iron man
Not a good dude.
Mail man.
When they say “welcoming in,” does the person give a speech? Or do they just sit/stand there?
Thanks Karl for all the great games! We had a fantastic time!
13!!!
THIS SPEECH TOUCH MY HEART SO HARD HAD ME CRYING TOO , ESPECIALLY ( THE END)ABOUT HIS MOM ! PARADISE LIES AT THE FEET OF YOUR MOTHER! HUMBLE AND MANNERS IS WHAT HIS MOTHER AND FATHER TAUGHT HIM AND HIS MANNERISM, " IT WASN'T ABOUT ME!" A TRUE HUMBLE (HOF) LEGEND!!!
But he is child molester don't forget that
@@hoggers7572 Let he without SIN cast the FIRST STONE !
mr malone you sir deserved to win a championship !!
Great speech! Great player, humble human being, one of the best talents ever to enter the NBA, always hard working at improving his game. The Mailman always delivers! Thanks for your contribution to the basketball game Mr Mailman!
"I'm country, I love it."
- The Mailman
❤
One of the best to ever to do it ! I still remember like it was yesterday I was in front of my tv with my brothers watching Karl and John in the 90’s trying to learn how to pass like Stockton but guard like Malone good old days
I watch these speeches from these old players I grew up watching. This has to be the best out of 100 or so.
As a Utah Native, It hurts to see Malone & Stockton, two great players and no ring to show for it.
Polska! mnie również bo w pełni na to zasłużyli ale. ... tak widocznie musiało być! Kocham ich oby dwóch ❤
So honest and sincere, well earned
Malone is hall of shame
She was 13 Karl. Be a man and accept yo son
They've interviewed the son. Apparently Karl apologized for not being there for him and now they actually spend a lot of time together lately.
@Mook Wolf yeah that's terrible but I'm replying to the fact that he has accepted his son.
Mook Wolf everyone is good with it and have moved on
@Mook Wolf Isn't that the South? And Louisiana? That place is crazy.
He died, so there's your justice.
It was beautiful to see Karl so emotional.
Karl Malone & John Stockton are legends that will be remembered for many years to come. They took the Bulls to the brink of losing .
Looked up to this man and fell in love with his game
I idolised Malone since I was 15yo. Being an Australian we didn't get much NBA games at home so I mailed away to join the Jazz fanclub just before the Dream Team Olympics and I got back a plethora of Jazz merch that I didn't expect. By the time the Jazz got in the finals, NBA games were shown at midnight on tv here. Although they didn't win, I remained a Utah fan for life. The magic between Malone and Stockton made a lot of fans in Australia when most were on the Bulls bandwagon. Im so glad I was lucky to be born in this era, growing up with 90s NBA. I don't think there will ever be another era like that.
What a player was The Mailman Karl Malone , one of the greatest of all time
Karl is so good on 2k he’s a 97 he should be a 99 just disrespecting him
I thought he will put his elbow on the mic.
Ray Bugz give it some stitches you say?
Louisiana Tech
Karl in basketball and Terry Bradshaw in football.
Yes, now that you mentioned it!!!!
Great baller, and an even greater person . Congratulations "Mailman " !
He’s a great player and that’s all.
What a humble recipient of the HoF and what a downright amazing player Karl Malone was and will be. I salute you, Mr Malone! (Y)
WoW, amazing.
Karl is a Gentle Giant, very sensitive.
Big hugs for you. And your lovely family 🤗💝🙏
GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY, KARL.
ALL THESE OLD SCHOOL NBA'ers ARE STILL MY HEROES.
CAN'T COPY THEM.
A gentle giant doesn’t get 13 year old girls pregnant at 20.
One love Karl. Your not perfect but your appreciated thank you god bless
jerry sloan still looks the same ,..never get old..
He was born 63
He's stuck in time.
@@johnnyblingg He was born old 😂😭
Stockton spent half his speech saying he would be nothing without Malone (which it was obviously the other way around) and Malone mentioned him once. Just mentioned his name.
If you consider that Tim Duncan actually was/is more of a center than pure power forward, then Karl Malone is the greatest power forward of all time. Ring or no ring.
malone was a bette scorer , Duncan better All Around player (cough cough) 5 rings
Yes, but I meant, if we don't consider Duncan as a power forward but as a center, then Karl Malone is the greatest PF of all time. But between him and Duncan, Duncan is superior.
+Ed Vega why wouldn't we consider Tim as a PF im confused
His play is that of a center, and sometimes, he's on the court with another big forward and he seems to be playing the center slot.
+Ed Vega Duncan is a PF.
Karl that was a heart felt speech
that 13 yrs old girl so proud of you..
One of the most outstanding power forward/center of all time.
Great job. You have left your mark in the NBA. Power Player. Thank you sir
I love this mane god bless you
5:00 yeah, I shed some man-tears there
Karl was very good I rank him 13th of all Time (btw I am 13)
Lol
Stockton and Malone ❤️ They wont ever be another better... saldy championship less... Duo In NBA history
13
Nice
Oh isn’t he just adorable. Such a humble, proud man.
Excellent very very touching!! NYC Loves you Brother JULY 2017!!
Neither Karl Malone or John Stockton could help for MJ being so incredibly good and he had perhaps the best partner ever in NBA history in Scottie Pippen. Those two won 6 rings in 8 years and were even praised as the best duo ever in basketball by Dennis in his Hall of Fame speech. And lets not forget they had the best rebounder and hustle player ever to stand on a basketball court in exactly Dennis Rodman. And they also had Steve Kerr one of the best 3 point shooters ever and they had also Phil
Yup utah had only stockton and karl, the whole bulls team was crazy
Greatest PF of all time - Loyal to his team unlike today's players
