Playoff points tally: 2077

Responsible for one of the most iconic comments on the NBA, Moses Malone is one of the great yesteryear heroes who're often overlooked when people talk about the NBA's all-time greats.

As a rebounder, he was in his own class, averaging the highest offensive rebounds per game at 5.1 for his career as well as holding the record for highest total offensive boards by a pretty significant margin.

Initially drafted into the ABA after finishing high school, Moses was an undersized center who got his work done as the prototypical big man in an era of grinders by outhustling and outmuscling stronger and bigger opponents.
