Denver Nuggets head coach, shared his thoughts on the Carmelo Anthony saga with Hoopsworld reporter Eric Pincus, before the Nuggets played the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday, October 15.

"I don't think that [staying] is off the table," Karl told Pincus.  "The Kobe [Bryant] scenario is what I used.  I said Kobe, four years ago, said he wanted out.  I know [the Los Angeles Lakers] made phone calls."

With Kobe Bryant, seemingly unhappy in Los Angeles a few seasons ago—he nearly forced his way out of the Lakers and into a Chicago Bulls jersey.  But it's obvious that sinking ship was righted, that same season with the acquisition of Pau Gasol.

At least George Carl still feels that his star player, isn't entirely sold on leaving in the offseason as a free agent.
