George Karl Compares Billups to Obama


Today, Obama. Tomorrow, Ghandi…Coach Karl’s man-love for Chauncey is outta controI: “I don’t know Obama well, but I think (Billups) does (have similar qualities to the president elect)… When you make change, it’s substance. Obama had the substance to do this, to fulfill this. What I’m excited about is I know Chauncey has substance.”

    Yes he can!!

  • ciolkstar Posted: Dec.16 at 11:15 am
    Ridiculous. Although the chimistry in Denver looks pretty good right now. I saw GK chest bumping players and assistant coaches(!) and looking genuinely happy during pregame warmups.

    Someone need to get Karl out of the Mile High air.

  • H to the Izzo Posted: Dec.16 at 11:19 am
    YES WE probably won’t.

  • Myles Brown Posted: Dec.16 at 11:19 am
    So is Allen Iverson Sarah Palin?

  • boredatwork Posted: Dec.16 at 11:28 am
    Gandhi?

  • Captain America Posted: Dec.16 at 11:32 am
    Hell, I’d probably would have voted for Billups. At least he would have a record to run on beforehand.

  • Torrance Posted: Dec.16 at 11:54 am
    I feel bad for George’s wife.

  • Torrance Posted: Dec.16 at 11:54 am
    To lose your man like this…

  • riggs Posted: Dec.16 at 11:58 am
    you got a lil substance on the side of your mouth there george.

  • Rome Posted: Dec.16 at 12:14 pm
    Man, he never said stuff like this about Gary Payton and he’s a HOFer? But they’ll lose in the second round this year though, Billups will wear down over the year, like he always does.

  • tom Posted: Dec.16 at 12:21 pm
    as a sonics coach I thought he´s somehow inventive while being successful. I wonder if I was so wrong back then or if he´d changed into whatever he is right now. Has he been that bad of a coach forever?

  • tealish Posted: Dec.16 at 12:25 pm
    Old George has got to stop.

  • Mo Charlo Posted: Dec.16 at 12:44 pm
    Middle-aged white guys trying to comprehend what Obama means to this country is bound to plague us for a couple of years.

  • Jolst Posted: Dec.16 at 12:48 pm
    I think Billups is paying him donuts to say this kind of things.

  • mat smith Posted: Dec.16 at 12:49 pm
    heh, that is someone who has run out of answers to the same questions “actually since CBills arrived I havent had to make any decisions so its worked out great, ill make stupid comarisons to placate him!” Karl did not add….

  • Darksaber Posted: Dec.16 at 1:01 pm
    w.o.w. Georgie porgie, phone call?!! It’s chauncey’s nuts, begging you to get off ‘em.

  • NACHOveli Posted: Dec.16 at 1:09 pm
    eventhough it seems heaven sent, we aint ready for billups as president.

  • Anton Posted: Dec.16 at 2:05 pm
    George Karl is Karl Rove

  • Sarah Posted: Dec.16 at 2:24 pm
    lmao wow

  • Boing Dynasty Posted: Dec.16 at 2:47 pm
    If Chauncey is Obama, and Iverson is Palin, and Karl is Bush, can JR Smith be the dude who threw his shoes at Bush’s head last week?

  • jaywhy Posted: Dec.16 at 2:51 pm
    george karl is michael jackson

  • EC Posted: Dec.16 at 2:55 pm
    Iverson’s Clinton, caused controversy while he was there but you wouldnt mind having him back (*cough* Philly *cough*)

  • Josh D Posted: Dec.16 at 3:33 pm
    Carmelo Anthony 4 President!!!!!!

  • Jukai Posted: Dec.16 at 3:41 pm
    This is definitely the Birdman’s fault. Stop sharing.

  • the baconator Posted: Dec.16 at 5:25 pm
    I always thought Baron Davis was Obama. And I have to disagree. Darko Milicic is Sarah Palin. He was the little-known Serbian center who everyone expected great things of. Turns out, he sucks and is the only one who takes him seriously. Just like Palin!

  • Moose Posted: Dec.16 at 5:32 pm
    Uhhhhh, every time an NBA player gets traded there’s change, George. So I guess he’s got a point. So that means that every player has Obama-like qualities!

  • what Posted: Dec.16 at 5:35 pm
    Calm down George. Why don’t you just stop talking for a while.

  • Jack Posted: Dec.16 at 7:13 pm
    roflmao at Boing Dynasty. Hey, George I agree with you, but you can’t compare a basketball player to a damn politician.
