Report: Nuggets Fire George Karl

((ht: @WojYahooNBA))

So much for winning NBA Coach of the Year.

According to a report by Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo Sports, the Denver Nuggets have decided to part ways with now former head coach George Karl.

Wojnarowski says Karl was seeking an extension of his contract, which had one year left on it.

Karl coached a talented Denver team to a 3rd seed in this years Western Conference playoffs, but the Nuggets were eliminated by Golden State. The team played very well during his 8-year
tenure, but never was able to get very far in the playoffs.

Oh, Denver's G.M Masai Ujiri just left the team to take over the Toronto Raptors last week. 

Speculation has already begun that Karl may end up in Los Angeles as coach of the Clippers.
