George Karl at it again...

[Tron Carter]

well i'm going to back out of this thread that'll explode for no reason. i was asked to post a link to support my claim and i did.

i won't be responding to future posts on this matter because the topic at hand is meant for trashing george karl and making fun of him.

and when i post a link refuting your claim you run away like a little girl

Don't you insult little girls like that...

i saw you and-1ing my comments and i'm like "damn i know im gonna hear about that comment"

my apologies

This was tweeted by Jessie Washington senior writer of ESPNs Undefeated, click on the tweet for the full clip..wow man just wow..

Someone post this in the GB thread, a lot of them didn't have a problem with what Karl said at first, maybe now they'll open their f**king eyes.

The funny **** is that real thugs would never ever look at ANY NBA PLAYER as a thug. Any Black man that comes from the Hood and seen as Angry, has Edge, is a Thug to people like George Karl. Even the dude who acts the The most "Thug" in the NBA, Boogie Cousins would not been seen as as a thug from the cats in the streets or in jail. There is a difference in Attitude/Hard Edge and what a Thug is.

Do we know this second set of quotes are real?

[dakomish23]

Karl wrote Anthony and Martin not having fathers in their lives became a detriment to their personalities.

“Kenyon and Carmelo carried two big burdens: all that money and no father to show them how to act like a man,” Karl wrote.

Classic case of racial paternalism. I suppose Karl's daddy taught him how to take potshots at players. He needs his azz kicked.

Up and down Broadway.

Forget that. Beating this dude down will only back his hood comments. Even though anybody would want to kick his ass, that's how it will be spun.

Hit him where it hurts - his wallet. Ban him from the NBA

The fact that we could believe it to be true given his recent comments is disturbing

Sure. The first set are very problematic/racist in their own right. I'm just not seeing this as a quote elsewhere. The "amir" account was retweeted by a legit source but I'm not sure that his account is.

[Greenie]

All u did was post an article but didn't provide any quotes to support your claim. In the article you posted it said "But everyone wasn't a fan of him being the new star, so he didn't stay long". How is he talking about melo? He Oh yeah he isn't. Here's what he said right after.

Y'all melo haters be delusional and never accept facts. Just pure BS.

you didn't see him post his grand exit? he makes agenda driven statements then dips that's his m.o.

didn't dip, trying to get some sleep. i broke night because of work and need an hour or two to refuel

it's weird having to tell you this but it's the stuff i do for a living. now stop quoting me because i need my phone on and keep getting notifications.

Turn your fuqing notifications for realgm off. We're not kids you can run game on.

Refresh the page BNO...
That's what you're doing anyway.

I agree with Torres. This is a perfect situation for the organization to stand up for Carmelo. This is fuel for this franchise, media and fans to come together and make a statement on and off the court. Personally not a big melo fan and have been down on this season. Until now. Time to go **** **** up.

Unfortunately I dont see anything else, but the credibility lies with the journalist who tweeted it knowing his position as a senior writer for ESPN and the irresposibillty to retweet something that strong if its innaccurate. As damning as that is I have to believe its legit until proven otherwise.

Yet PJax gets blasted for using "posse", Karl should get flamed hard for this trash.

[KNICKFAN374]

Other than not agreeing about his Dad comment, Karl is spot on; Melo is one of the best scorers ever in the NBA, however, he's a terrible teammate, that's how Melo was in Syracuse and that's how he is today, he will never change and we will never win with him.

[El Poochio]

You know how you know Karl is racist. When you put Wade and Lebron in boxes and call them thuggish means you have no understanding of Black People. Nobody Black WOULD EVER SAY THAT LEBRON AND WADE ACTED LIKE THUGS. Its the same way when white people called Richard Sherman a thug. Dude is the farthest thing from what a thug is.

I just wanna say not all white people are as ignorant as this dumb old white piece of sh*t where he talks like he's a better than any of the players he's sh*t talking.

I'm white and he's seriously making my blood boil with his f**king comments, f**k I wanna punch him in his mouth.

Lol at anyone who judges someone or evaluates something by their or its race, nationality, gender, rather than use of intellect and experience

It'd be kinda hilarious if George Karl ends up stopping this boards civil war thats been going on all season.

see, no one respects george karl, its amazing how someone could spend 25+ years of coaching and not be respected by any ball player

This deadspin headline though

lmaoo

Oh, Melo

This was always his photo though for a while now.

[blueNorange]

There are folks defending his comment about Melo not having a dad when his dad DIED from cancer at a young age.

How **** pathetic is your agenda that you think that's ok?

dude the only agenda is you saying agenda

karl said something very dumb and in poor taste when all he could've just said was "being young, rich, and famous could be overwhelming to a kid who unfortunately didn't have a father around to teach him how to be a man"

that's a normal thing, i grew up without a dad and i'm still trying to find how the world works on my own.

You couldn't wait for yet another soapbox even though "you're out of the civil war".

The fact that you're still defending this fool screams volumes and I'm surprised.

except i'm not defending him.
