“Where have you seen a game with 46 free throws for a team? It is not fair. I don’t care how you present it. It happens to us too often. The other teams go into contact and we don’t receive the same whistles.”. Monty Williams appeared very upset following his team’s latest defeat.
At a press conference, the Suns coach only wanted to talk regarding the disparity in free throws, Los Angeles having obtained 46 while his players had collected half as many…
” It is tiresome. 46 free throws to 20, with Devin Booker on our team. He shot 12. Our bench had no shots. I have enough. I’ve been talking regarding the same thing for a while. The opponent doesn’t matter. The last game, Shai (Gilgeous-Alexander) had 19 free throws. I’m tired of talking regarding it. Our players have to do their job, we know that, but it’s a huge disparity. I repeat: 46 to 20. That’s all I have to say”
An outing that did not please the NBA, which has just fined the Arizona coach $20,000.
