JR Smith doesn't like Karl and claims the Nuggets had no inbounds plays and this resulted in them having key turnovers in '09 loss to Lakers AND Karl is famous for not doing much with loaded rosters 90s Sonics and 00s Nuggets... fax!!!
@@EndoftheTownProductionsonce’s with two all stars that year and nuggets went to western conference finals against Kobe and wine two games as well but players win games coaches win series. Karl coached longer than players stay in the league he’s more overrated than any of his players
Melo never lived up to his full potential because he's not a Kobe or Lebron in work ethic. He was more like AI, he was getting into trouble and got too cocky too.. A frustrating player to coach as you see the potential but also the problem
It just seemed to me that Melo is kind of, uh, mellow. He doesn't seem o be the competitor that Kobe or LeBron were/are (not to mention Jordan, Bird, etc). Didn't have the killer instinct. He played in "his comfort zone" is a polite way of saying this.
Dan was fishing for the Carmelo Anthony answer from the beginning, but he got thrown for a loop when Karl said Joe Barry Carroll was the biggest diva he ever coached (yah i hadn't heard of him either, if you hadn't).....Dan worked hard and eventually brought the conversation around to Anthony though.
A lifelong Warrior fan! The #1 pick in the draft where the Warriors traded Robert Parish and the #3 pick (Kevin McHale) and the #13 pick Rickey Brown for the rights to Joe Barry Carroll a traditional back to the basket 7’! He coached JB Carroll years later with the Warriors I believe in ‘87 in the playoffs. They didn’t get along and after one playoff game it was stated that Karl got upset (I assume at JB Carroll) and tore up the locker room. Karl always had a fiery personality. JB did not and the styles clashed. I see it clashed with many others as well. His teams played well. But some of them had a lot of talent as well.
I don't agree with Karl calling out Melo father or other players. As a coach, you have to take a certain responsibility to lead your players. That means even being a father to them. I think Karl wasn't that great of a coach for Melo and the Nuggets for 8 years and lost in the first round every year besides 2009. Whatever Melo wanted to be a complete player or not, Karl failed the Nuggets and pointing fingers didn't help anyone after the fact. For Karl to say what he did 6 years after Melo left was silly.
I think he was rightm. people get so offended nowadays he said they acted like brats and then not having fathers lead to acting like self entitled babies. had they had fathers to teach them manhood it surely would have been different. all the players he mentioned had troubles listening and biting the bullet and "manning up" up the sport of basketball. they all wanted to do things their way and never listened. I didn't have a father in still learning things I should have known a boy needs their father or some role model most of the time a mother can't teach them these things most of the time
He said it because the publishing company offered him a big fat sum of money to say it in his book. Make it go public, get some emotions firing, and bam! There is your quick buck marketing campaign. They had everyone from Charles and Shaq on TNT to Stephen A on ESPN fully promoting the book with their outrage over Karl talking about Melo's father. Morally sound, no. Clever marketing, yes.
The crazy thing is HE’S NOT WRONG.. mello could’ve easily been a triple double guy with a couple chips but was okay with just scoring & didn’t hide that..
Melo was a ball-dominant player who looked to shoot first after letting the shot clock run down to almost zero. Plus, he didn't play defense. He was about stats.
A lot of people don't want to admit it but very true. Another beloved player who was similar in that respect is Bernard King. Great scorers and that was what they cared about the most

They didn’t give him nothing though. They got him Allen Iverson who was older but still dangerous and they got Kenyon Martin who was coming off an All Star year. Marcus Camby who was at that time an elite defender winning DPOY while Melo was there and Chauncy Billups who was older but had a huge Basketball IQ to run the court. Granted the other guys and overall team composition could have been better but shit he left denver for who the knicks? Out of his goddamned mind lol.
@@romeog5579 you could argue maybe pippen. I would still give the edge to pippen cause of his versatility but Melo was one of the greatest consistent scorers of all time. He was just selfish and couldn’t really do much else.
Carmelo was never a leader. Just into his own shit. Who considered the Nuggets a great team in Jokic's first few yrs. You work hard and you lead. Melo just wanted his buckets. 7 yrs with the Knicks and playoffs 2-3 times and they were under .500 the last 4 yrs. I know this cuz I'm a knick fan and I couldn't wait for him to get traded.
@@wisethabrain1100 championship? I never thought that high with him. How about just better. Teammates better. His teams where he's supposed to be the star got worse in the last 5 or 6 yrs of his career. After the knicks every other team he went to just punted him away after a month realizing it.
"F George Karl off rip"
-Kenyon Martin
Horrible coach he had tons of good squads and never got his team far .. he’s the type to blame everyone but himself
96 Sonics lost to bulls in 6 games in the finals
Yes, he did throw just about every player he had under the bus.
Man, loved to trash his own players in front of the media.
He got to the championship NBA finals vs Chicago bulls
@@megatrontheeloheim5071he doesn’t say good things about the stars on that team either
Never saw this interview but the melo disrespect by Dan Patrick alone is crazy 😳
10 people speaking the same about this man is not a false tale.

I’m not a George fan but the sonics went to the finals and lost to MJ.
Isn’t that doing something ?
He won two games against MJ in the Finals.
@@EndoftheTownProductionsonce’s with two all stars that year and nuggets went to western conference finals against Kobe and wine two games as well but players win games coaches win series. Karl coached longer than players stay in the league he’s more overrated than any of his players
Carmelo was with loaded rosters & never won, he isn’t a Championship player. More his fault than Karl tbh
And by not doing much, you mean he took the Sonics to the playoffs every year, and the Finals once.
he doesnt like the questions hes being asked, almost as if he thought people wouldnt ask questions when he took shots at EVERYBODY
I don’t like Karl but this feels like a whole interrogation from Dan lol
Karl regrets what he said.
Great interview, staying the course and being direct.
George trying to play nice now.
I could smell the alcohol through my monitor 😂
Random Bike Trips let's check you out after you beat cancer.
Random Bike Trips probably a way to monitor whether his players like him
The guy just went through fighting cancer, If you know anybody that went through that you wouldn't have made that comment.
He had throat cancer numbnuts
@@TheAstraeuss Fighting cancer doesn't automatically entitle you to being a better person.

Melo is clearly a hard worker.You dont have this long of a career being lazy.
What trouble Carmelo been in?
HOW WOULD YOU KNOW???...YOU LITERALLY DON'T KNOW THIS MAN 😂😂😂😂 STFU
@Virru112 that's a lie. If that was true, u think Michael Jordan would have 1 on 1 personal workouts and sessions with people who don't work hard?

Karlanese Translation: "Mello isn't a team player, he is selfish".
No class below average coach gives me racists vibes
Karl actually sounds quite reasonable here
Answer the questions
Where's the lie? Carmelo went out of his way (throughout his entire career), to prove Coach Karl right
That makes no sense
@@jalenstanislas8149 you should just say you're not intelligent enough to comprehend basic English + you weren't even an intelligent adult when this took place = if you're okay with being the dummy in the room, then so am I
He didn't know any of his players so he wouldn't know who or what they liked or didn't like
This guy was fishing for controversy
No he wasn’t he was tryna see if he was gonna say what he been saying about his players in his book
Yeah I can see why people don’t like George lol
Only thing stopped Melo was not having a great team and giving them 4 5 years to win a chip...Shaq & Kobe..Jordan & Pippen took a while
They didn’t give him nothing though. They got him Allen Iverson who was older but still dangerous and they got Kenyon Martin who was coming off an All Star year.

Melo was no Jordan or pippen

@@lumanate1493 facts 💯
Not what Melo wanted, to have a group of guys who could score. Billups talked about how Melo was happy to be the leading scorer, win or lose.
If Melo would’ve been drafted to the Pistons we’d be having a totally different t conversation about his career..
no, about piston's career, coz they wouldn't have that chip
Players from the Pistons are glad he wasn't drafted by the team. With him, the team loses its entire identity.
Basketball
I never like him when he was in Seattle he acted like he was the best player on the team.
George Karl can really dress wow I'm blown away most old ppl can't
Same could be said about young people..
I hate the new NBA dress code for coaches--give me Chuck Daly and those tailored suits any day! Pat Riley looked pretty slick too!
Carmelo just never had a great team…period
Dumbest comment ever. Billups and AI weren’t great? You serious?
@@Gamedayinteractivetwo different times..and u need more than 2 players to win a chip..were NEVER as deep as the Spurs Lakers or Celtics

A lot of non-answers.
Mama said he wanted to make melo a triple double player😂😂😂😂 and he gotta play defense fam George you trippn
Melo would never have averaged 10 assists. No wonder George Karl never won anything.
This dude should not have been a coach in the first place
