Question:  What basketball legend mentioned in The last season: A team in search of its soul is tied with Karl Malone for the most first team All-NB elections in history.

The NBA All-Rookie Team is an annual National Basketball Association (NBA) honor given since the 1962–63 NBA season to the top rookies during the regular season.  Voting is conducted by the NBA head coaches; who are not allowed to vote for players on their own team.  The All-Rookie Team is generally composed of two five-man lineups, a first team and a second team.  The players each receive two points for each first team vote and one point for each second team vote.  The top five players with the highest point total make the first team, with the next five making the second team.  In the case of a tie at the fifth position of either team, the roster is expanded.  If the first team consists of six players due to a tie, the second team will still consist of five players with the potential for more expansion in the event of additional ties.  Ties have occurred several times, most recently in 2012, when Kawhi Leonard, Iman Shumpert, and Brandon Knight tied in votes received.  No respect is given to positions.  For example, the first team had four forwards, and one guard in 2008, while the first team had four centers (two of which were forward-centers) and one guard in 2016. <SEP> Karl Anthony Malone (born July 24, 1963) is an American retired professional basketball player.  Nicknamed "The Mailman", Malone played the power forward position and spent his first 18 seasons (1985–2003) in the National Basketball Association (NBA) with the Utah Jazz and formed a formidable duo with his teammate John Stockton.  Malone also played one season for the Los Angeles Lakers.  He scored the second most career points in NBA history (36,928) (second behind Kareem Abdul-Jabbar), and holds the records for most free throws attempted and made, in addition to co-holding the record for the most first team All-NBA elections in history (tied with Kobe Bryant and LeBron James).  Malone was a two-time NBA Most Valuable Player, a 14-time NBA All-Star, and an 11-time member of the All-NBA first team.  He is considered one of the best power forwards in NBA history. <SEP>  The book deals with the ups and downs of the Los Angeles Lakers' 2003-04 season and offers Jackson's insight into the team's season that ended in a breakup but not a championship, despite boasting four potential future Hall of Famers: Shaquille O'Neal, Kobe Bryant, Karl Malone and Gary Payton. The Last Season: A Team in Search of Its Soul is a book by the former American basketball coach Phil Jackson, originally published by the Penguin Press in 2004. <SEP> The 1998–99 NBA season was the Jazz's 25th season in the National Basketball Association, and 20th season in Salt Lake City, Utah.  Having lost back-to-back NBA Finals to the Chicago Bulls for the past two seasons, the Jazz were hoping a third time would be a charm as the Bulls' dynasty ended.  During the offseason, the team re-signed free agent Thurl Bailey, who came out of his retirement.  The start of the Jazz season was delayed by a four-month lockout.  When the season finally started, the Jazz got off to a 19–4 start, and then posted an 11-game winning streak in April.  However, they struggled a bit down the stretch as they lost their grip on first place.  They finished with a league best record of 37–13.  However, their record was tied by the San Antonio Spurs, who won the Midwest Division by a tie-breaker.  Karl Malone was named Most Valuable Player of the Year for the second time.
