Report: Kings to fire George Karl in coming days

It looks like the latest fallout between George Karl and the Sacramento Kings is finally going to bring a conclusion to his coaching job with the team. What started out as a rocky relationship between DeMarcus Cousins and Karl when he was reportedly being hired by the Kings a year ago around the All-Star break has permeated through the rest of the organization and roster. Karl has had several moments over the last year in which it looked like either he was going to go or he was going to have Cousins traded.

The Kings weren't crazy enough to deal their star player for the 64-year-old coach, so instead they made the two sides work it out and see if they could build some stability.
