Someone needs to be held accountable. None of this injured player stuff. to be up with 7 mintues left
and take out the hot hand in hamilton and put in a tried Al is just bad coaching…..it isnt the injuries… the problem is George Karl

GK
George Karl is a bad coach.. Ray Allen, Shawn Kemp, Gary Payton, Carmelo Anthony, there is a reason nobody liked playing for him. He needs to go, we can’t let this talented group of young players be ruined by the rookie hating George Karl.
by DENVER DYNASTY on Feb 22, 2012 11:26 PM MST reply actions
Karl needs to go now!
one positive I took away from this game is Jordan Hamilton. The guy really showed me something tonight. He can fill it up when given the chance. There were a couple of instances however when he passed up the open three. He probably was afraid that lame ass Karl would pull him. Anyways, way to go Hamilton. If he keeps playing like this, maybe we don’t need to overpay for Chandler

I think Chandler will be great off the bench
Amnesty Al this summer and give his role to chandler.
Amnesty Al? Why not just trade him?
He has to have some value … and if you think he should be gone it’d be better to get something rather than pay him to do nothing.

Agreed
What can they honestly get for him tho? Can’t see them get more then an expiring to be honest. Which is still better then amnestying him.
Not so fast
Harrington isn’t tradeable. Look at his contract. NBA executives are smarter than that. They are going to look at his whole career and the fact he is 33 and has 4 years left on as bloated deal from the last CBA.
He isn’t tradeable man. Nuggets were trying like hell to unload him last year with Melo.

I’m not really advocating trying to trade him, just noting how quick people are to say “amnesty” him. And he only has 3 years left on his deal and the last two are partially guaranteed, according to John Hollinger.

The Post game show is a better show when he’ s gone.
It was some really love there.
He asks gk if there was a problem with harrington going 3-13 and george changes the subject to say “We didn’t rebound enough and that affects our ability to run”. George goes on to say “I thought we executed well in the 4th”

George Karl post game comments
“we failed to rebound aggressively in the 4th quarter and that affects our ability to run which is how we win.”
Its so weird I can’t even explain how I feel about these comments. He took out the guys who were rebounding and then its their fault because they weren’t in there to rebound?
I've been there for about 5 years now.
He always has some fucing excuse for his inability to get it done
The guy doesn't know how to put his players in a position to succeed
He sets them up to fail, then acts like they did it to themselves. Putting Al and Brew in there to box out Jordan and Griffin is the prime example of this. Yeah, just box out two guys that are way bigger and stronger then both of you, why couldn’t you do that simple task?

Switch Harrington with Stone
We would have won because Stones afraid to shoot the ball so Maybe AAA would have made a few more attempts that Al would have missed scored a few more. Nuggets win.
Ham at SF would have been much better
And GK knows it. his ego is just too big to win in a logical manner. He must stroke his ego by occasionally winning with SHIT (but out of the box) lineups, SHIT (unconventional) timing BECAUSE THAT WAY ITS ABOUT GEORGE… Thats why he loves this team with no superstars, GK is the superstar… At least that is how he sees it.
should have left faried in
and then call a timeout if he wants to bring in Hamilton
that’s what a good coach does…i mean he called a timeout anyway after jordan dunked it.
It's pretty crazy, that's for sure.
“Andre Miller, why can’t you rebound over DeAndre Jordan?”
“Big Al, why do they call you Big Al? Because you can rebound over Blake Griffin!”

Not sure about that
But if you aren’t frustrated with Karl for 3 of the last 4 games then I really don’t know what you have been watching at the end. The guy is just awful in late/close game situations. This has been a problem with the nuggets for years, and by now it clearly is more of a coaching then a team problem.

Bird on "Ink Master"
When one of your players is a guest judge on a reality show devoted to tattooing, I feel you should automatically win.
If I were him I would go somewhere besides Denver.
Surely he’s wondering why he would want to be coached by George Karl.
Pains me to say it, but Mozgov was horrific tonight.
His pick and role “defense” was not good. Well the Nuggets overall pick and roll defense wasn’t great. Didn’t understand why on the pick that Moz sort of shifted to cover Chris Paul, Arron Afflalo then came chasing Paul and nobody bothered to worry about Blake Griffin streaking to the basket. Must have got 8-10 points off that play.
Why didn’t Faried play more?
Why does Andre Miller play under the hoop and allow Randy Foye to shoot open threes?
Why didn’t George Karl bench Harrington and his awful shooting and even worse defense on Griffin? Faried played Griffin really well and Kosta Koufos looked fantastic …
All around a fumbled game with a chance to win it. Again …………….

what bothers me is karl says that he rides the "hot hand"
but that completely isn’t true otherwise hamilton would have played the entire 4th, and KK/ faried would have gotten way more burn. Harrington prbly wouldn’t have come back, but that didn’t happen at all. TO me, the only thing I can think of is Karl picks favorites and when those who aren’t his favorites don’t play well, he benches them and say’s he’s going with the hot hand.

I think Kevin is saying Al was hot weeks ago and Karl has now exhausted him beyond belief.

Agreed
I just don’t know what to think. I have no clue what is going on in Karl’s head. Plus the compressed schedule isn’t doing Al any favors either

Even GK’s not GK enough to pull him if Al told him he can’t go.

Karl says a lot of good things in, "The Association" and talks good about hoops, but his in-game rotations and post-game comments are very bothersome.

Exactly
Love Karl as a coach, just not late in close games or for half court sets. And honestly he has blown so many late/close games recently I just dunno how much more of him I can take. Hard to argue that he isn’t part of the problem right now.

Nate, I agree on the P&R...
But I think it may be coaching. The Nuggets bigs all seem to be terrible on the P&R. It drives me crazy when Nene sags off when his man sets the pick and then the guard is running free in the lane. I always thought it was maybe just some laziness on Nene’s part, but it seems to be a trend with our bigs. If several guys are defending a play improperly that is coaching.
The most frustrating thing is that I can see the potential of this team, it hurts so bad to watch this debacle night after night. Injuries or not, this team has so much depth we should still be winning.
While I agree that it is somewhat coaching for sure, you could see Karl on the bench throwing his hands on his head when the ball went to Blake off one P&R, like he saw the play was blown as it was happening.
Was just very frustrating to watch as you KNOW that’s what CP3 wants to do … fire up the crowd with a slip pass to Blake for a dunk.

as much as it sucks to lose
we were fairly competitive for most of the game against a good clipper team (full strength minus billups plus martin) and we were down 4 of our best players (gallo, nene, ty and rudy).
that says something about how deep we are.
Very good point. And many, including me, feel that if the game were managed a little different it would have been even more competitive down the stretch. No reason to keep playing Al when he was clearly, CLEARLY, out of it tonight.

Not sure how you can expect anything different out of Karl at this point.
Late in close games we all know what is coming. The funny thing was when everyone was healthy he did sit some starters and play hot hands late in games, now it is all about his “trust guys” and killing the vets. It would be funny if we hadn’t just lost again because of it.

Karl's going to play who he is comfortable with
Unfortunately. Course the strategy has worked ok in the past… Al hit three big 3 pointers late in OKC for instance.
Yep, but then he stunk it up late defensively
That is the beauty of Offense/Defense late game substitutions. Something George Karl just cannot seem to grasp.

how many did he hit tonight? How many did Hamilton make?
George is a walking phil collins lookalike contradiction…
I don't think you should sugar coat it
Nate. Call it like it is George Karl isn’t the coach for this team
i think this team may have tuned out GK
he’s a good dude and people like him but something is missing
don't fake the funk on a nasty dunk!
its 8 years of the same crap basketball concepts
but this time he doesnt have a closer to save his a$$
Have you notice during the TO's he's drinking his gatorade and sitting on his ass
the players and assistants are doing his job
rose colored glasses...
we have to break thru…can’t just get moral victories all the time…we were in this game and playing well until 5 minutes left…

great D, physical, aggressive, rebounds well.
imma bench him though

is gk teachable?
First three quarters: AAA is top scorer and team leader; Faried nearing another double/double and Hamilton is on fire. Crunch time.,Chris Paul is going nuts, AAA stays on the bench, Griffin is running amok; Faried stays on the bench, Al H can’t get the ball to the rim, hit a free throw or guard anybody so he plays last quarter and a half. Even the Clipper announcers are wondering why Harrington is still out there,
Tonight made it unmistakably clear that we must move Harrington and management team (direclty or through Hunt) must compel him to play people who are performing in the crunch, especially on defense. If he still doesn’t get it, the Karl era ends at the end of April.
NO
The Nuggets could give HASTINGS a try in Mid season. He can’t take them no where that they are’nt already heading for.
I think Melvin Hunt maybe could handle it.
Anyone else is gonna come in with a ‘system’. Its better if the new coach just says ‘Guys, go do what you been doing and I promise to rotate out whoever is 0 for 5’.
Has Hunt played in the NBA
I see Bowen is an assistant
Think about it
What is it that Hunt has that Hasting doesn’t have? Hasting is right there every night he’s at the practices.
Give him a chance right here in mid season.
I don't dislike hastings but
I hate the fact that he wears a black blazer with brown pants. Don’t they pay that guy anything?
Comon GK
It ain’t about the clothes. Black and Brown is acceptable in fashion these days. Saw it on HSN or QVC while shopping for a gift for my wife.
Like I said think about it, He knows the Nuggets roster, He knows their abilities he played in the NBA.
Well check this out YD, Kurt Rambis is available. He played with the Lakers during their hay day. Would you prefer him over Hastings
Why don't you put up a fanpost poll with these individuals as Nuggets Coach
1. Jeff Van Gundy
2. Jerry Sloan
3. Kurt Rambis
4. Scott Hastings
.
To me Hastings has all of them beat simply because he’s familiar with them.
I DVR'd this one
Already know the outcome. Just finished watching the first half and loved what I saw from Jordan Hamilton.
Anything worth seeing in the 3rd quarter? My finger’s on the delete button.

I like him too
Sounds like it’s not entirely his fault here, GK keeps him in there that long, Al must figure he’s got a big responsibility to score…

Look we had no business being in this game and it went down to the 4th quarter
Hamilton looks like he is going to be an all-star. A 6-9 SG he will be, who can contest his rshot, he can drive, pass and rebound. Faried looks like a really good role player. Got to be excited about the future. Can’t help but think we should trade some of all talent and get a star caliber player, we may need to put rotations out of George’s hand. With all this talent, Karl has no idea of who to play and when.
K-Mart....
…Tough loss tonight but it was good to have a K-Mart experience and not have to feel guilty for having him on your team.
I would say something bad about the guy but I am a little afraid he would send his boys to come find me afterwards…
Glad he’s gone.

We are tanking on purpose
If after 3/15 we will see what our team looks like? I expect now it is trade everyone, dump salary and get into this next MASSIVE draft!
Karl is on board and this was always the plan ever since Melo said he was leaving.
Please refute but it seems obvious to me!
Dude
as long as we have our young core, we’re going to win games and stay out of the lottery. Trust me, I WISH we could be in the lottery, but that’s not gonna happen.
I think we could still win this year
I am saying we are playing our veterans legs off to make stats look better trade them before the deadline. We will see what we look like in a few weeks. It is not our pick that we are seeking to improve. We will trade our boys to anyone for any pick in the next draft and use all those picks to move up for our “one” coveted guy.
That is the plan and has always been the plan. We Have someone we want next year and everything ismovingparts until we get there.
Winning early was a bonus. Now it is grow our young guys and get picks. No championship this year!
This is one of the best teams
since Hector was a pup. No drama, everyone is willing to learn. To bad GK can’t teach.
No doubt.
Best team I’ve seen as a Nuggets fan. I just don’t know how this rotation is gonna work…and GK is NOT the guy to figure it out. He is with us in the playoffs…that’s what scares me. As long as he’s there, we don’t get near to our full potential.
Who is this loser posting this filth?
Seriously
Someone that is around basketball his whole life coaches this badly?
Seriously? Did he just forget about everything he ever learned. Something is afoot. I think trades are coming. We have some good rookies!
I thought you were talking about our lack of inside post game...
…which is almost as objectional as the Tranny-Filth that some 15yr old loser posted last night.
