If
you
Google
both
Karl
Malone
and
John
Stockton
separately,
you’ll
probably
come
across
some
stories
that
will
either
disgust
you,
make
you
roll
your
eyes,
blow
a
raspberry,
mutter
frustratedly,
or
all
of
the
above.
Particularly
when
it
comes
to
some
of
the
allegations
against
Karl
Malone
like
those
that
Black
Enterprise
reported
on
back
in
February
of
2023.
The
article
details
an
Audacy
report
that
Malone
impregnated
a
13-year-old
girl
and
abandoned
both
her
and
the
child
when
he
was
already
20
years
old.
People
aren’t
quick
to
forget
things
like
that…
So,
when
the
Utah
Jazz
announced
that
Malone
and
his
professionally
inseparable
teammate
and
staunch
COVID-denier
John
Stockton
were
sitting
down
to
tell
old
war
stories,
folks
on
social
media
went
Game
of
Thrones
to
remind
the
franchise
that
“The
North
remembers”.
While
John
Stockton’s
exploits
might
not
reach
the
depraved
and
delinquent
lows
of
Malone’s
egregious
exploits,
he’s
still
a
cold
weirdo
with
heavy
MAGA
and
Newsmax
vibes.
“Never
meet
your
heroes”
remains
undefeated.
Without
the
on-court
contributions
of
Malone
and
Stockton,
the
Utah
Jazz
don’t
have
much
to
celebrate
in
their
50th
year
of
existence
with
no
championships
and
only
2
conference
titles.
That
said,
the
NBA
created
“the
bubble”
to
demonstrate
their
dedication
to
taking
COVID-19
seriously.
The
league
also
pivoted
more
deeply
into
social
justice
issues
that
are
centered
around
the
safety
of
Black
lives.
All
that
is
to
say
that
celebrating
an
accused
deadbeat
dad
with
an
“alleged”
inability
to
recognize
when
a
sexual
partner
is
too
young
for
him
and
a
COVID
conspiracist
doesn’t
quite
jive
with
the
league’s
previous…marketing
efforts.
