Is it just me or has this stuff between Portis and Mirtoc taken a racial turn...It seems that since he got his block knocked off even though people have said that Mirtoc was the aggressor he is being chastised for punching him....I have heard Portis being referred to as a thug etc and that Mirtoc should sue Portis....The players even seem to rather have Portis around than Mirtoc...But it seems as if some of the other fans want to rid themselves of Portis asap...

Report: Bulls players siding with Portis

“According to several players, the ultimatum issued by Nikola Mirotic — either Bobby Portis goes or he goes — carries no weight. If anything, it has solidified Portis’ standing with his teammates. One Bull even said, ‘This is Niko’s problem now.’ The players agree that Portis’ actions were wrong. But there’s a lingering sense that Mirotic came into training camp with a feeling of entitlement, which did not sit well with many of his younger teammates.”

My impression of Mirotic for awhile has been that hes insecure about his manliness in a league of mostly black players and thats what caused him to try to run up on crazy eyed Bobby and get duffed...i saw the the same thing last year when he tried act like he wanted problems with Serge Ibaka and and Jamal Magloire after that Ibaka/Lopez thing.Niko feels like he has to uneccesarily step to young black men to prove himself to his teammates and himself...

Lesson learned the hard way slavic cac.

False cowley has sources and has reported news pertaining to the bulls months in advance

He said thibs would get fired nov '14

And Noah's knee was way more fukked up than what was being reported

He also said rose would get traded and the bulls were done with rose

All these things were on point

My beef with all that is why a nikka got to apologize simply cause he won the fight. Fights happen all the time and sometimes somebody get fukked up. Get over it and move on.
