He hasn't coached in sometime. The game has evolved and it remains to be seen if he can adapt with the way the game is being played now rather than sticking with what got him here....regular season wins no championships.

He deserves respect but history does not lie to us. His teams are high scoring and don't play a lot of defense. Don't go back to his teams in the Seattle days...those are long gone and has no merit on how the game is being played in this decade.
I guess I missed the point when it became cool to make fun of a guy who lost both grandparents and his mom while he was in college and has been raising his young sister himself since he was 20 years old. Surely there's a line somewhere. But then I'm used to people treating me like I'm some kind of idiot just because I see something where they won't even take the time to look. So no harm, no foul.
Karl last coached May 2, 2013 and he took over here on Feb 11, 2015. Consdering that there are no NBA games between June and October anyway, that's a year and a half. Or more correctly, a season and a half. In any case, the game did not evolve and pass him by in that amount of time. I suppose you could say that it evolved at some earlier point and he failed to adjust, but then how do you explain the coach of the year award in 2013?
