Monty Williams: “My job is to teach and help guys break habits”

Monty Williams remains undeterred, even as his Detroit Pistons endure an 11-game losing streak. He refrains from expressing discouragement and is adamant about not labeling losing habits as ingrained within his team.

“I can’t say that. My job is to teach and help guys break habits that they’ve had for a while. I can’t speak to what’s happened in the past, but when you see it, you call it out and help guys grow,” Williams said.

Williams added, “The habits are something we’ve talked about since the summertime and we’ll continue to talk about it until it changes.”

Detroit has finished with a losing record in 13 of their last 15 seasons.
