George Karl Defends Displaying 'N-gger' Book In His Office After Carmelo Anthony & J.R. Smith Critique

In it, he criticized Smith and his then teammates, Carmelo Anthony and Kenyon Martin, calling them “AAU babies” and dissecting their strengths and weaknesses. But Earl Smith Jr. urged his son to shoot the ball and keep shooting it from the very moment I put him in a game, which is obviously bad. On Anthony’s podcast, 7 PM In Brooklyn, he and Smith revealed that Karl kept a book in his office called N-gger. “This man had a book in his office called N-gga,” Smith said, which Anthony remembered. “Predominately your team is Black,” Anthony added.
