Quote around the 4 minute mark of the interview.
Too much Melodrama and diva league I guess.

Bet he's glad he stuck around now though
He’s got a very coachable team without any discernable superstar that hustles and has good talent & skill on both ends of the floor.
I am in no way affiliated with the blog of the same name.
Now he's giddy...
All season Karl just sat on the bench and facepalmed — horrible body language. Now he won’t shut up.
Maya: "What are your first impressions of Denver?"
Mozgov: "I must break you..."
good for John Lithgow...er...George Karl
This season (including the preseason) has seen Don Nelson (innovative, but overrated), Larry Brown & Jerry Sloan all leave the sidelines, & Phil Jackson, if he is a man of his word will do the same at the end of the season. That leaves Greg Popovich (who has said he will hang it up when Duncan does), Rick Adelman, Doug Collins & George Karl as the last of a group a pretty exceptional coaches. Even among the younger great coaches, Doc Rivers is contemplating retiring in a year or two. With players & statisticians gaining more control of how teams operate all of the time, we may be witnessing the end of an era during which coaches have been prominent figures vital to teams’ success/failure.
