Live Bar News on May 3rd NBA playoffs semi-final G1, the Lakers beat the Warriors 117-112 away, Hamm accepted the media interview after the game.
The reporter asked, “you seem to have made an action when Poole was 9 seconds away from the match and tried to catch up with the balance. Do you still remember what action you did? Do you realize how close you were to Poole at that moment?”
Ham said: “No, I am not the kind of coach who tries to interfere with shooting on the court. I may tell my players to jump on interference and exert pressure. I will not name names, but I have seen many coaches interfere with entering the site under such circumstances.
“But that’s not me, man. I will let 10 players and 3 Referees decide the match. I won’t do it. If there is such a move, I am also waving my hand to let my players defend, and don’t give the opponent a three-point shot.” Ham said.
