Ex-NBA Coach Degrades LeBron James, Anthony Davis With Scathing Remark

Former NBA head coach George Karl, who once coached in the NBA Finals against Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls, came out of nowhere and took some shots at the Los Angeles Lakers superstar duo of LeBron James and Anthony Davis amid LA's coaching search.

For Karl, the fourt-time league Most Valuable Player isn't a superstar anymore and Davis hasn't been and won't be on that level ever.

"I’ll give the Lakers coaching search committee free advice today - LeBron isn’t a superstar anymore and AD will never be one. Now be sure to use those Truths when evaluating candidates and u might select someone u keep for longer than two szns!" Karl posted on X on Thursday.

Karl is entitled to his own opinion, but it's still shocking to hear someone take such kind of shots at both LeBron and AD. Then again, Karl isn't known to hold back on his thoughts.

The Lakers are still looking for a replacement for Darvin Ham, whom they fired after just two seasons at the team's helm.
