George Karl? 

Post#1 » by myersia » Thu Jun 6, 2013 4:21 pm

The Nuggets made a big mistake! Can we scoop him up? I am on the sign Karl bandwagon... are you?

How does that make you better than the Lin, Gallo, and Wil fans who root for them over NY?

I'll take him over D'Antoni, of course.

Personally, I don't see Karl as an improvement over MDA...
To me, they're different flavors of the same drink.

That said, I wonder who Denver thinks they're going to get that's significantly better than Karl?

pretty much, try to out run and out score your opponent forget D and then when he ran into a team who did it better, he lost :lol:

I thought Karl did a great job with that Melo Billups team as well a the Sonics. Karl hasn't always been run n gun

I fail to see what's so great about George Karl. And on top of that I don't see management having 3 coachs on the pay roll.

D'antoni would be great for Denver. Wish we could trade coaches lol. I really like Karl. Im not saying he special but I would love to see what he would do with our current roster with Dwight. Larry Brown and Jerry Sloan would be interesting too if they didn't have health issues

If you don't have an uptempo style of play in Denver, then you're not using your environment to your advantage.

True... And I'm respectful of Karl's teams and the trouble they always seem to give us... But so did MDA... And I feel we all saw each of them get out-coached by Phil numerous times. I think they're both good coaches... Just not great ones, and If MDA doesn't fit our personnel, I'm not sure how Karl is any better.

Interesting, you felt MDA out-coached Phil? My recollection was we were just out-manned in those Smush/Kwame years.

One thing I will say about Karl, he did about as good of a job managing that Nugget's roster (with too much talent) that could be done. Sucks that they ran into an exploding Steph/Gallinari being injured.
