PHILADELPHIA (AP) Sacramento Kings coach George Karl says he has a positive outlook after meeting with team general manager Vlade Divac amid a losing streak and speculation about his job.

Karl said Wednesday before the Kings-76ers game in Philadelphia that he and Divac are on the same page.

Karl says Divac wants the team to win more games right now, and that's fine. Karl says ''everyone should want to win more games.''

Karl and Divac met Tuesday in Philadelphia as the Kings are on a four-game losing streak, having lost eight of their last 10 games.

Divac said in a statement that Karl ''is our coach and we're collectively working through our issues.''

Karl declined to offer more specifics about their meeting.

Kings star DeMarcus Cousins and Karl have struggled to work together. The All-Star center has not hid his emotions or frustrations.

Karl says he thinks the team's current funk is temporary.
