The Bullfight

Look, I’m all about brotherhood, but the situation in Chicago should probably be resolved via trade. You heard about this? So, Bulls teammates Bobby Portis and Nikola Mirotic got into an altercation that ended with Portis punching Mirotic and breaking his face.

Potis was suspended and Mirotic is out for who knows.

I agree with Mirotic. He told the Bulls that if they keep Portis, then he wants to be traded. This fight is even more awkward as it seems the rookie 3rd string power forward, Lauri Markkanen has played well with the sudden surplus of available minutes.

All of this started because of practice. Not a game. No, not a game. Practice.
