The relationship between DeMarcus Cousins and George Karl is, to put it lightly, tense. The two have feuded since Karl took over as coach of the Kings in the middle of the 2014-15 season.
DeMarcus Cousins takes a not-so-subtle jab at George Karl for slighting Seth Curry
This feud shows no signs of slowing.
So, after Karl said Seth Curry would be in the NBA for "a couple of years," on Friday, Cousins made sure to not-so-subtly call out Karl for the slight while Curry gave a post-game interview following a win over the Dallas Mavericks on Sunday.
This isn't new behavior. This summer, amidst rumors that Karl was trying to trade his star center, Cousins went to Twitter to call Karl a snake.

In March, Cousins was handed a one-game suspension after he yelled at Karl in the middle of a game. Cousins went out of his way to tell media that the suspension wasn’t handed down from Kings management -- Karl had doled out the punishment.
"That wasn't a suspension from the organization. That was a suspension from the head coach," Kings center DeMarcus Cousins said.

Something has to give in Sacramento -- this media feud could get even weirder.
