You would think they have to trade or cut Portis at this point, the animosity will still be there when Mirotic comes back and that can't be good for the locker room and the team. But they are tanking so the more chaos to lose more games I guess the better.
I like it alot but I am closer to their age range and like Jalen's perspective as former player. I could see how others might not be into it.
Bobby Portis apologized. Said he has texted Mirotic but got no response. Wouldn’t get into whether Mirotic was an aggressor. Portis: “I want to make sure me and Niko are cool. I’m pretty sure we can move past this.” Portis:"I’m wrong for what I did. I want to publicly apologize to Niko. I feel I let my fans, the Bulls organization and my teammates down" Bobby Portis: "This is not who Bobby Portis is." Did Portis feel Mirotic acted as an aggressor in incident? "We’re just competing. Things happen." Portis: "I was surprised by my own reaction because that’s not who I am. I’m a competitor. But I never meant to hurt my own teammate." Bobby Portis, on if he's concerned Niko Mirotic may take legal action: "I'm not concerned [about] that at this point. I'm just trying to publicly apologize to Niko, my teammates and that I'm real sincere about the situation." Portis on Niko talk: "It hasn't been arranged but I'm pretty sure it will be a gentle conversation. And I'm pretty sure we can get past it." What did Portis think about the length of the suspension: "Um, you know, I got suspended. It's my fault. I take it as a man."
