Willie blasts Karl for the first time in his career - i.e. Karl is DONE

[Im Still Ballin]

WCS hasn't been playing good basketball of late.

Sigh, Willie already acclimating to the toxic environment. It's like seeing an innocent child be poisoned by society.

What? WCS seems like an intelligent and very growup young man. Let's not stretch this too far. Why not just listen to what he said and try to understand.

He talks about the G1 center because thats all the kings have to look forward to.

As bad as this team is, the honeymoon might only last a couple of months, if that.

Considering how expensive the seats are going to be, the new arena could end up being out of reach for a lot of us mere mortals. But I digress...

As to the topic at hand, WCS made some valid points but none of it is gonna matter. It's all rearranging deck chairs at this point. Until and unless there are some major changes (in attitude, personnel, philosophy, or whatever) nothing is going to get any better.

The Rook needs to keep his mouth shut! And Vlade, the fount of Culture, needs to tell him to keep his mouth shut. The rook has no standing whatsoever. This is sooo typical of a corrupt feckless Kings Culture. If Vlade doesn't do something here he's tacitly undermining the coach and undermining the tatters of what we call Culture. And it's not just about Karl versus dumb Rook, it's dumb Rook vs. this coach and whomever the next coach is. This is the way to screw up the development of your players. You let them get away with crap in their first freaking year. And I don't give a **** whether the Dumb Rook is justified or not in his search for justice. He's still a Dumb Rook and he needs to keep his trap shut!

Would you speak like this to Willies face? Or are you just an internet tough guy hiding behind your keyboard? I think you need to take a look at what you wrote before you suggest anyone "keep his trap shut!"

Exactly, Willie by all indications is a hell of a guy, but you dont air out your issues with the media. You talk with the coach in private.

In all fairness, WCS didn't seek out the media. I think people need to remember that his comments were in response to media questions in the locker room right after the game...and some of those guys excel at trapping rookies into saying more than they really should.

 

[Albatros]

Don't think his comments were anything over the top.

I like his confidence and I like what he said about next year.

I like WCS even more now. It's obvious the kid should be on the court more but Karl is just making excuses for sitting the kid. It's almost as though Karl is sitting the kid because he has an agenda.

Make no mistake, Karl has an agenda and I suspect all the items on the agenda pertain to Karl.

He's a tad over the top with his arrogance but I would rather start from that viewpoint than a Ben McLemore.

George Karl is that you?!

 

[Im Still Ballin]

George Karl is that you?!

Just calling it how it is. He's been off lately. Blame it on whatever you want, he just hasn't been playing as well as he should lately in the minutes he is getting.
