"A blog post by Jazz CEO Greg Miller on Friday evening called former Utah forward Karl Malone "too unreliable and too unstable" to coach the team's big men, and said Malone was lying about being unable to get a game ticket.
Earlier in the evening, Miller took to Twitter to accuse Malone of telling tales.
"Hey Karl — you're lying. You have my number. Next time you need a seat to a Jazz game, call me. You can have mine," Miller said via his account at 6:33 p.m. Malone recently told a Salt Lake Tribune columnist that he had to buy a ticket from a scalper to attend a Jazz game.
Miller's follow-up blog heavily criticized Malone, saying, "The fact is Karl is still as high-maintenance as he ever was, but now he has nothing to offer to offset the grief and aggravation that comes with him."
Malone played 18 years for the Jazz, teaming with John Stockton to carry Utah to two NBA Finals appearances. Malone was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2010."
