Who in the league absolutely despises this guy? Former players, retired players, other coaches, commentators? This is merely for my own amusement.

i hated him when the sonics were rivals for us. always thought he looked like a child molestor

What I wanna know is why everytime something goes down in the league, George Karl is the first person that they run to for a quote? WTF is up with that?

Isiah Thomas.

Almost died, doesnt care about rep, so tells it like it is.
I like him, he even took fault for went down in Milwaukee.

Todays young(soft) players just can't handle a hard-a$$ coack like Karl.

johndeeregreen · 02-13-2007, 06:27 PM

Him and Paul Pierce aren't exactly on the best terms.

i love george karl, he tells it exactly how he see's it.

yeah, isiah thomas is the one that comes to mind for me because of the way he fired larry brown (one of karls long time friends), which obviously sparked the MSG brawl.

didnt karl also have a feud with Doc Rivers back when he coached the bucks?

for these reasons i love the guy too. esp when he was with the sonics

but i have a good friend who absolutely hated him when he was in seattle. despised is probably a better word. he came across as a hard ass and many people dont like that

i know that vincent askew didnt when karl suspended his ass in the playoffs. karl takes no sh!t
