Former NBA coach George Karl had some fun at the expense of himself and United States President Donald Trump with a colorful tweet on Friday.
With the incumbent POTUS currently trailing Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden in the 2020 election ballots, Karl offered his services for Trump on how to manage his losses.
If @realDonaldTrump needs a pep talk about managing through first round losses, I would be willing to speak with him tonight or read him a bed time story.

Although no official winner has been declared just yet as of writing, Donald Trump is on the verge of losing his presidency, considering Joe Biden has taken leads in states worth 306 electoral votes. Trump has been quite vocal with his protest about the results and even vowed to sue every state Biden won.
George Karl, on the other hand, is also not fond of the Trump administration and he is certainly enjoying the poll results so far. The 69-year-old tactician is one of the winningest head coaches in NBA history and only one of nine coaches with over 1,000 wins. The one-time NBA Coach of The Year winner, however, does have a history of losing in the first round of the playoffs.
His biggest disappointment by far is still that 1994 letdown, during which his top-seeded Seattle Supersonics team got eliminated by the no.8-seeded Denver Nuggets in five games.
Karl's team was bannered by the fearsome All-Star duo of Gary Payton and Shawn Kemp at the time, but it was turned back by that Nuggets team led by a young Dikembe Mutombo. While Karl definitely still has nightmares about that whole ordeal, it's hilarious that he managed to use it to ridicule Trump's bad luck.
