First of all George Karl was a terrible defensive coach so he can criticize Melo all he wants but he needs to look in the mirror. Also, Melo didnt exactly have a choice in the matter about his father. He died. Thirdly, there are WAY more people who have negative experiences with Karl as a coach than Melo or KMart as players. (See Ray Allen).

[@pianmario1]

Ray Allen, Gary Payton, he pretty much got the whole bucks team traded most nuggets didn’t like him. Idk but seems like he was doing something wrong

[@MatthewEvans_TheHadMatter]

Classic case of old white guy taking credit for things people of color were actually responsible for, not to mention that they were able to do those things in spite of him doing everything he could to muck it up. Honestly, go back and watch his OOB plays and late game scenarios to see what kind of game knowledge he actually had, especially on defensive coverages and gameplanning. Coaching only on offense is flashy, showy, and lazy. Might make some fans, but it doesn't win titles. Obviously.

Probably yes. You people always bring up J Lin but nobody in that locker room said that was the case. Amare never specified who it was and Lin personally said multiple heads didn't want him back including the front office... I watched that team Melo never visibly looked disgruntled with Lin so that is all speculation. Give other examples of the behavior he's being accused of lol

@@IaMYoungWalker Jeremy Lin wasn't on the Nuggets and never played for George Karl. So... What are you even Talking about?

[@IaMYoungWalker]

@@onestopfunstop317 so other than Karl you would have to give examples from other players. That's the point one person can say anything but how can you just assume it's true. Karl attacked a lot of players lol. Then later in his career there are more chances of him to be accused of this and nobody ever said anything lol almost always the complete opposite

To sell books smarty pants. Same reason "fire and fury" came out with a buzz. Publicity sells . Make a bogus claim on some famous people, get free promotion and exposure until the next big story. Regardless if the claims are true or not. But in this case I think it's just his personal opinion, doesn't mean it's true.
