there you go, a racist piece of **** who believes that people who were not born in USA can't accomplish big things in USA

[Hemispheres]

Melo coming off as a savvy, successful man content with his place in life.

Karl coming off as a crotchety, miserable old S.O.B.

One interesting aspect of Karl’s critique: He expressed interest in coaching the Knicks to several people -- including one member of the organization -- a few years back, according to sources. Yes, Carmelo was the face of the Knicks at the time.

I think a lot of you seriously need to reassess what your definition of racism is. I actually think most of America needs to do that.

[Pr0nzingis]

Everything he said it's 100% true. Melo JR and K-Mart are dumb thugs.

Melo plays defense today? lol The only reason of Knicks switching on defense all these years was Melo not wanting to run. Melo is the guy that gives you ZERO effort so that he can shoot 40%, if he gives you 10% effort he shoots 30%. Forget about defense, this is the guy that asks for the ball and then makes ZERO effort to put himself in a position to receive the ball, it's hilarious.

It's unbelievable how a shadow of his former self like Rose so easily made himself more important to the team than Melo and so easily made it obvious why the Knicks were so terrible last year, by showing us what a superstar really is.

Melo is a fat ass cancer, that shoots 20% on layups, only idiots can still be eluded by those few games where he actually shoots the ball well, while giving you the usual ZERO effort in everything else.

The day Knicks trade this loser, it's the day the Knicks takes a huge step forward.


Oh and Karl didn't go personal he was actually making excuses for them.

[Jim Dolan]

What he said about K-Mart and JR Smith is obviously true, but since then id like to think Melo has grown as a person. And Karl hit them below the belt, not really empathizing with them. He's acting like a woman scorned, not a father figure to these young men.

[blueNorange]

my guess is that karl's cancer is back so he doesn't care. he's a deadman.

Hey George...

How is Melo a dumb thug? What has he done lately to be labeled a thug? Please, tell me...

Melo is still very important to this team. How many games have we won without him the last few years? Don't play yourself...

[blueNorange]

not for nothing but jr smith probably loves being called a thug, especially after that article that ripped his entire street cred in half when the article talked about how jr smith was a good rich boy growing up that went to private school

I guess he has grown a lot in the last two years, evident by his constant whining to the refs and by still not giving a single frack to defense.

So because the entire team wore black (a move which was orchestrated by K-Mart), Melo is a dumb thug?

“When I was a sophomore at the University of Arizona, I used to work George Karl’s basketball camp in Seattle. I was at a banquet, George walked up, he approached me, shook my hand and then whispered over to me and said, ‘You’ll never make it to the NBA. You’re never serious. You’re a joke.’ That’s what he told me. Word for word.
“And so I always kept that in the back of my mind, and every time I either faced a George Karl’s team or when I’d see him, I always had a little extra motivation. Yeah, no question. But that’s just George. I mean, if you know George, you know, for better or worse, that’s just him. That’s his personality. And he’s always been like that and I can see why guys had a tough time playing with him or for him.”

You're this short of calling him the n word with the hard ER.

This is by far one of the All-Time worst posts here on RealGM. Although coming from a ballboy with a Porzingis username isn't surprising. I'm a big time fan of K.P but this person is no fan of the New York Knicks; he's/she's simply a Porzingis fanboy. Grain of salt.

In regards to George Karl, what Kenyon Martin stated spoke volumes. It's much deeper than not having a relationship with his players. There were times where Karl wouldn't even speak to his players while walking through the locker room. Which is as arrogant, stuck up, egotistical & as rude/rotten as they come. I won't say he's a racist who doesn't like black people, but he certainly didn't like his players (who were mostly black).

How has resigning Melo to that max contract been treating ya?

[NYKMentality85]

Serious question.

Has George Karl ever publicly degraded and insulted players such as Chris Mullin, Detlef Schrempf, Vinny Del Negro, Toni Kukoc, Steve Blake, Chris Andersen, Danilo Gallinari, Timofey Mozgov, Kosta Koufos, Omri Casspi, Marco Belinelli and/or David Stockton?

Or, does George Karl only attack, go after and insult his former black players?

How has that Fred Hoiberg contract been treating ya? How about u worry about your own team that's now a game under .500 after losing 5 out of 6 games (soon to be 6 out of 7 after y'all get smashed by San Antonio on Christmas day). I seem to recall Bulls fans on their hands and knees begging for Melo to go to Chicago before he resigned with us.
