The Nuggets and representatives for coach George Karl continue to discussion a possible contract extension.

Denver has made an offer to Karl, which a source told the Denver Post was for three years and roughly $12 million.

Karl, who is in the final season of his current deal, wants to remain with the Nuggets but feels as though he should be paid as one of the top coaches in the NBA.

"I've always said I want to be in Denver, nothing's changed there," said Karl. "When you see all this stuff that's written, it just makes it sad that I'm probably going to have to be a businessman. I don't want to be a businessman ? I want to be wanted, signed and move on."
