KG for the better part of his career was good through 3 and gone in the 4th. I'd take Malone because I don't have the option of say a Bird or Jordan.. I'm not saying Malone is the end all be all but I'd say he's above Garnett. Each have their strengths as mentioned above by other posters but I'd take Malone because I'd trust him more..
    Well all I'm saying they are both very weak in the clutch for superstar standards so putting alot weight on that is kind of useless IMO no offense.

    fair enough.. Malone may have not been clutch but he'd take the last shot, would he make it or would he throw up a brick perhaps even make a bone head play but Garnett would be out of the equation all together looking to pass more often then not in the 4th. Not saying in just the last 3-24 seconds of a game. If I'm picking I want the guy who is willing to take the ball.

    I wouldnt want either player taking that shot so this line of thought in comparison to who is better seems irrelevant to me. If im trying to win a championship Id need a better finisher than either player.

    Duncan > Barkley = Malone > Garnett

    Are you kidding? Malone should have changed his name to Choky McChoke. Garnett was equally terrible in the clutch.

    I would honestly rather have prime KG than prime Malone on my team.

    Id rather build around a dominant defender than a guy who is famous for scoring until the clutch.

    Anyone who doesn't say Malone pretty much means you never saw him play in his prime.

    false

    Malone was a great player, but I'd rather have KG's superior defense, ball handling, and length.

    Malone was far superior to KG on offense, and was a great defender too. He would snap KG in half with one of his patented elbows.

    Malone

    Do his stats from 1985-1998

    Malone also outplayed Garnett even as an aged man
