"I don't know why he would say something like that. I think that's ridiculous that he would come out and say something. I don't remember that to be honest with you. And it's unfortunate that he would make that kind of statement about our game."
Interestingly, the year before Williams' rookie season, Chandler was a rookie on the Bulls and teammates with Ron Artest (now Metta World Peace). Artest would later admit that he drank alcohol at halftimes of games while he played for the Bulls.
If Williams' claims are true, there was a troubling atmosphere in the Bulls' clubhouse in the first few years after Michael Jordan left the club. An atmosphere that Tyson Chandler wishes others wouldn't talk about.
