As forseen in my 2007 predictions post, some turmoil is brewing in Denver. It seems Nuggets coach George Karl is fed up with Carmelo Anthony competing with Allen Iverson and feels Carmelo should just "forget about scoring". Just as I predicted, having two 30+ point players on the same team will cause problems. Something has to give.
By the way, if you do look back at my 2007 predictions post, go ahead and ignore everything except the Iverson/Melo prediction.
Anyway, you can read about the Carmelo situation here at espn.com. Here are some great quotes from George Karl:
--"I've told Melo in the last two weeks, 'I don't think you're listening. I don't think you're listening as well as you need to listen.' For me, the next step is to change the democracy back to a dictatorship."
-- "And, right now, what you're saying is basically, 'When is Melo going to get it? Is it going to be next month?' As a coach, there's no one more frustrated, there's no one more angry than me, because I feel the pain."
