If things aren't bad enough for the Kings, there are reports that head coach George Karl and DeMarcus Cousins got into an altercation after a loss to the Spurs.
According to Bleacher Report, Cousins marched into the locker room after the loss, and cursed Karl out. Karl didn't respond at the time.
But those who were in the locker room pulled Cousins to the side and basically told him that his attitude was not helping the team.
Cousins would address the matter later saying: "Everything I can't really speak on," Cousins said of the issues, per Jason Jones of the Sacramento Bee.
"We got some issues that we got to carve out. Can't really speak on that. But one thing is, us players, we got to stick together. And just with that, that'll get us through most battles. We got some issues in-house we need to figure out."
Cousins has been known in the past to have a diva like attitude, so to some (see Charles Barkley) this probably won't come as a shock.
Apparently, Karl and Cousins haven't gotten along from the get go and there were even rumors around the league that Karl was looking to trade Cousins to another team, but management wasn't haven't any of that.
It is also being reported that Karl may be looking for a job by the end of this week or the beginning of the next week. Cousins is not the only player on the Kings not pleased with his system.
Several players are expressing their dislike of Karl's system which along with this latest incident with Cousins, may be the reason he may be looking for a job soon.
