more Karl gems, this from an interview about the book
http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2016/12/george-karl-on-nba-conspiracies-phil-jackson-and-carmelo.html
I’m sure you saw how people already picked up on your calling Carmelo Anthony a “user.” What’s an example of Carmelo’s being a “user”?
I think what I have to say about that is in the book. But here’s what I’ll say now: Melo is a hell of a player, the best offensive player I’ve ever coached. I owe him as much as anyone for my having a great record. But there’s a new generation of players interested in personal branding and gaining money and power off the court, and that’s all new to me. There were too many times with Melo when what was going on off the court was more important than what was happening on the court. It bothered me then and it bothers me now. That kind of thing bothered me just the other night.
What happened?
I was watching the Portland Trailblazers play, and I was trying to figure out, What the hell is wrong with this team? My conclusion is that Damian Lillard is getting too much attention.
What makes you think that?
Who controls the team? The coach and the point guard. And that team is not working. I think their coach, Terry Stotts, is a great coach. So I’m going to say the problem is Lillard. They were a together, connected, committed team last year. This year they’re not. What changed?

Karl is just throwing shit at the wall and seeing what sticks. They are not the same team they were last year, injuries and regression. These things happen, it isn't always someones fault.
Dude is beyond full of shit.
Dude is beyond full of shit.
I think Portland's biggest problem is they're a disaster defensively and that's a team issue and not on any one guy. Their ortg is actually better than last year.
By giririsss Go To PostSo you're going out of your way to bother complete strangers hoping to make them fall over?I mean she shouldn't have reached though...
Congratulations on being a dickhead.
By p s y Go To Postyep. Lillard's attention whoring pretty much forced LMA out.Nice try.
And Karl still sucks. Him and giri should yell at clouds together.
Also, did Shaq's and Jordan's off court endeavors hinder their game or attitude? What about Lebron and Kobe? Shit is silly.

By rodeoclown Go To PostI think Portland's biggest problem is they're a disaster defensively and that's a team issue and not on any one guy. Their ortg is actually better than last year.Speaking of which, apparently Rolo is number one in contested shots right now.
By Tea Go To PostSpeaking of which, apparently Rolo is number one in contested shots right now.I called that shit happening when NOLA let him go and knew that Portland was gonna suffer without him, too. Just took an extra year for it to really manifest... :p
RoLo doesn't solve Portland's defensive woes which are centered around defending the pick and roll, transition defense and help defense when a switch happens. RoLo is a good big man/post defender but Portland's defensive issues are systemic and only a Dwight Howard in his prime could improve that single handily, not RoLo.
Also I didn't realize they gave him a flagrant 2 and an ejection for those Hornets flopping. Jesus fucking christ NBA, then they were "nice" enough not to suspend him for a game. Really? 
By reilo Go To PostGo yell at a cloud or tell kids to get off your lawn, old man.Ahuh. Says the first guy that would white knight if she broke a nail.
By giririsss Go To PostAhuh. Says the first guy that would white knight if she broke a nail.For a ginger? Giri, please. They have no souls.
By Smokey Go To Postomglmao my city right there, I pass through there here and there.
i dare ya'll to find a dirty play by a current Jazz player. we choir boys.
Like maybe Joe Johnson or Diaw cause they have been around forever
gtime will dunk on you and pretend nothing happened

Rolo is a good PnR defender. Solid. He's not the athlete to be prime. But a rotation of Rolo and Plumlee would make the issue "not the big men".
As it currently stands the Porlan defensive scheme has to make up for bad guards AND bad big men.
George Karl is so basic. He's laughable and what little credibility he had is gone. Fuck the steroid comments thats an easy 'No shit Sherlock', Kobe going to Germany and coming back from Achilles injuries in less than a year hmmmmm. But to attack current players and the like and really demean their character is awful. It really seems like he's been a closeted racist with some of these comments, like wtf?

So that's who he's going to talk about a majority of the time.
Some of what he's going to say, i.e. the melo shit, is also stuff we've heard from many others. Won't play D. Worries about "Brand".
It's just that it's really totally unnecessary from Karl.

Talking about players not acting right cause they grew up without a father though..... No explanation can make that right. Nature vs. Nuture whatever, thats pretty much a direct comment on race IMO.
By Omzz Go To PostFuck ariza
He didn't want any of that. You know Jack was the type of guy who kept a screwdriver in his sock just in case things got out of hand.
By etiolation Go To PostThe best thing about that article is the end where he says he still wants to coach.Any disparaging remarks against women? Prolly link up with a WNBA or college team.
Who knows, plenty of leagues across the world to fail in.
By Slizz Go To PostTalking about players not acting right cause they grew up without a father though….. No explanation can make that right. Nature vs. Nuture whatever, thats pretty much a direct comment on race IMO.People say that shit about children of single mothers of ANY race.
It's patriarchal more than Racist.

Nah that's usually a dogwhistle when I've seen it
You never hear ppl say the white community has a problem with a lack of father's in the home. Usually minority and mostly black.
It's totally racist.

Different countries, so it could be taken in another way given local context.
It is, giri. It's a longstanding dog whistle throughout the ages. When Karl says it, it can't be taken without that context especially since he was discussing successful black men.
Didn't wanna lob a race grenade and then ride out of the thread. Maybe I listen to too much Le Betard, I just find Karl's comments like I said closeted racist.
Surprisingly Karl is a pretty good friend of the Le Betard show too.

By reilo Go To PostWoof. Honestly wouldn't expect that.
Karl seems pretty one note now with his Lillard comments.
It's dumb af and out of touch. Kareem was making movies, as were Shaq, Jordan and Lebron. Like to put "outside hobbies" as some sort of referendum on team performance is some dumb fucking shit to say, and given that Damian is rapping, it has racist undertones as well.
By reilo Go To Post
The amazing thing is how many bridges Karl is burning ... For an NBA that largely supported him during his Cancer treatments.
By Smokey Go To Postso karl is done in the league rightHas to be.
