Karl Malone isn't flying high in Utah any more

Things have been tense between Karl Malone and the Jazz since Jerry Sloan left the organization last year, and his recent claim that he was denied a ticket to a game by the box office has added fuel to the fire.

Malone claimed that he instead had to buy a ticket from a scalper. Jazz owner Greg Miller took to twitter to call out Malone on his claims, calling him a liar, but also offering him a seat to any future Jazz game.

On the radio show he was co-hosting, Malone also ripped the Jazz for their role in the Jerry Sloan-Deron Williams ordeal, saying that the team gave Williams more control of the team than Sloan. According to Malone, Williams would call the Jazz GM during practices to complain about Sloan. Sloan has since issued a statement claiming that Malone is lying on this issue as well.

Luckily the Jazz are in a better place now without Williams while he suffers with the Nets.
