Ring Chasers: Karl Malone's Quest to Be an NBA Champion

Karl Malone is one of the greats who failed to get his ring.

Despite being one of the -if not- best power forwards in the 90s, Karl Malone never won a championship title.

He’s a 14-time NBA All-Star, 14-time All-NBA, 4-time All-Defensive, and 2-time NBA MVP.

But the guy never got a ring.

One of the reasons why is that he played during an era that was dominated by Michael Jordan and Hakeem Olajuwon.

Malone, however, did come close on multiple occasions.

In 91-92, the Jazz made it to the Conference Finals, but the Portland Trailblazers beat them.

Then in 92-93, they made it back to the Conference Finals but were defeated by the Houston Rockets.

A few years later, in 95-96, they made it back to the Conference Finals again, but this time was defeated by the Seattle Supersonics.
