George Karl hasn’t had the greatest PR tour since retiring as an NBA coach
in 2016. Hall-of-Fame forward Carmelo Anthony has been outspoken about Karl’
s questionable coaching methods. Those sentiments were further validated by
former Sacramento Kings big man DeMarcus Cousins. Former Kings assistant
coach Nancy Lieberman recently revealed more information about Karl’s true
nature. When examining George Karl’s coaching career on paper, it appears he
was quite successful. His head coaching career began with the Cleveland
Cavaliers in the 1984-85 season, but he didn’t reach notoriety until joining
the Seattle SuperSonics. Under his leadership, the Sonics recorded six
consecutive seasons with 55+ wins, including an NBA Finals appearance in 1996.
Eventually, Karl landed in Sacramento, marking the final stop in his career.
His two seasons with the Kings didn’t go nearly as well as his time in
Seattle. A big reason had to do with his inability to land on the same page
as the team’s best player, DeMarcus Cousins.
自2016年从NBA教练职位退休后，George Karl的公众形象一直不佳。Carmelo Anthony曾公
开批评Karl执教方式有问题，这些说法近期更被DeMarcus Cousins所验证，前国王队助理
教练Nancy Lieberman近日更揭露了卡尔的的更多细节。
从纸面成绩上看，George Karl的执教生涯相当成功。他于1984-85赛季开始担任克里夫兰
骑士队总教练，但直到执教西雅图超音速队才声名大噪。在他的带领下，超音速队连续六
个赛季取得55胜以上的战绩，并在1996年打入NBA总决赛。
最终，Karl来到国王队，这也是他执教生涯的最后一站。然而，他在国王的两个赛季远不
如在超音速的辉煌，而其中一个主要原因，是他与球队核心DeMarcus Cousins始终无法达
成共识。
Their issues weren’t about coaching philosophy. In fact, Cousins admired Karl
’s mind for the game; he had trouble with everything else.
Unlike Karl, who has become extremely vocal about his grievances with
players, Cousins doesn’t speak much about the details of his relationship
with Karl. Lieberman doesn’t follow those same rules. She revealed some
under-the-radar information involving the pair.
“There were two times in the locker room when [DeMarcus] tried to beat up
George Karl,” Lieberman said on the 3s and Ones Podcast. Usually, what
happens in the locker room stays in the locker room. It would be naive to
think Cousins is the only player to physically challenge his coach. Although,
on the more drastic side, Latrell Sprewell once choked the Golden State
Warriors’ head coach during a practice. But it’s not abnormal for emotions
to reach a boiling point in a team atmosphere.
Unfortunately for Cousins, coaches look out for one another. According to
Lieberman, when word began to spread about what took place, that began the
downfall of the four-time All-Star’s career.
“That’s why he’s not given a chance,” Lieberman proclaimed. “That coach’
s circle is no joke.”
Of course, Lieberman was among that circle of coaches, but she didn’t use
Cousins’ actions against him. She reasoned that she saw firsthand Karl’s
horrible habits, including racism.
“I thought George was one of the most racist people. I sat in the meetings.
It was unbelievable,” Lieberman declared.
It’s clear that Karl didn’t just lose the locker room in terms of his
players but also his coaching staff with the Kings. It’s no wonder he was
fired from the organization after only two seasons.
两人的矛盾并非战术理念上的分歧。事实上，Cousins很欣赏Karl的篮球IQ；但无法忍受
他的其他行为。
“他的篮球IQ令人惊叹，但他就是最糟糕的教练”Cousins在《All The Smoke》播客中说
，“问题在于他的一切所作所为。”与Karl在退休后频繁公开抱怨球员不同，Cousins鲜
少谈论两人间关系的细节。但Lieberman选择打破沉默，她在《3s and Ones》播客中透露
：“有两次在更衣室里Cousins试图要去揍George Karl。”
通常更衣室冲突不会外传，但球员与教练的肢体冲突并非罕见。最极端的例子是Latrell
Sprewell曾在训练中掐住勇士队教练的脖子。
对Cousins而言，不幸的是教练们往往会互相照应。据Lieberman表示，当这件事开始在圈
内传开时，也就是这位四届全明星职业生涯走下坡的开始。
Lieberman身为教练圈一员却未因此否定Cousins，她解释自己亲眼见证Karl的恶劣行径，
包括种族歧视：“我认为Karl是最种族主义的人之一，我在会议中亲耳听过那些言论，简
直难以置信。”
显然Karl不仅在球员之间失去了更衣室的支持，就连国王队的教练团也对他失去了信任，
难怪他只待了两个赛季就遭到解雇。
