Monty Williams lost me years before he lost his job. That being said, it’s always sad to see someone who wasn’t an evil tyrant raiding lands, pillaging villages and decapitating firstborns (or who just works as an investment banker) lose their job. I know I’ve called for his dismissal repeatedly and sometimes cartoon violently — but I’m no upstanding citizen — still somewhere inside of my warped world view lies some sense of empathy.
I’m sure he’ll bounce back as a lead assistant on a contender — a job which he is exceptionally suited (pun sort of intended) for — or maybe he even gets a shot as a collegiate head coach.
