Sometimes, the best advice comes from the places you’d least expect. But we probably should’ve seen this coming.
North Carolina coach Roy Williams was not in a pleasant mood Saturday afternoon after his Tar Heels fell behind early to Miami, and he vented by taking his anger out on a chair.
Fortunately, Williams didn’t injure himself or anyone else in the chair-tossing incident. But that didn’t stop Oklahoma City Thunder big man Enes Kanter from giving the fiery coach his two cents.
Kanter, of course, would know: He got into a fight with a chair Thursday night and lost badly, fracturing his forearm and requiring surgery that reportedly will cause him to miss 6 to 8 weeks.
We’re glad Kanter learned his lesson and is looking out for others who might be thinking of challenging chairs. But his advice will provide little solace to Williams and No. 9 UNC, which lost 77-62 to the unranked Hurricanes.
