NBA Legend Moses Malone Passes Away

Moses Malone, a three-time NBA MVP and Pro Basketball Hall of Famer, passed away at the age of 60 Sunday. Nicknamed the "Chairman of the Boards," Malone was named one of the NBA's 50 greatest players. He led the Philadelphia 76ers to the 1983 championship. Malone was the first player to go pro straight out of high school.

Moses is The Forgotten Center every time a list of the all time greatest at that position is posted. How quick people forgot!

what a player he was!!  RIP Moses!

R.I.P Moses Malone. Not many people can brag about leaving such a legacy. I am saddened by the high numbers of basketballers passing too soon. Could there be a problem? I remember Manute Bol, tallest NBA player ever at 7 foot 7 inches, passed away at just 47 years.
