Bobby Portis on what former team he would go back to play for:
“I’d probably go back and play with the Knicks... My first go around with them, wasn’t good. Our team was a little different ...we had like, 5 power forwards.”
(via
@AshNicoleMoss
)
Portis was suspended 8 games by the Bulls (not the NBA) for punching Mirotic during practice.
Mirotic suffered a concussion and facial fractures.
He missed 23 regular season games.
Been on my mind just my own thoughts. NBA teams need to start valuing vets again. Especially on young teams. These kids need guidance. But what do I know.
There is no structural damage to Giannis Antetokounmpo's left knee after his awkward landing last night in Atlanta; ligaments are sound, sources tell
@ZachLowe_NBA
and me. Timetable to return is unclear.
"It's not about how many points you score or how many rebounds you get. It's about being solid, knowing your role, being a star in your role, and doing what you do to help the team win"
Bobby Portis on his energy and understanding his role.

were hesitant to invest too much money in a backup big man in Bobby Portis, John Paxson indicates, when they needed a starting-caliber small forward still.
As long as you believe in YOU, what nobody else has to say or think about you matters. Stay locked in! It always gets greater later kings and queens. Love
Brook Lopez took over as the Bucks' starting center last night and Bobby Portis, in the middle of a career year as a starter, took it in stride.
"I got you, coach,"

said. "All I care about is winning."

2012 Draft: Marquis Teague
2013 Draft: Tony Snell
2014 Draft: Doug McDermott
2015 Draft: Bobby Portis
2016 Draft: Denzel Valentine
2017 Draft: Lauri Markkanen
2018 Draft: Wendell Carter / Chandler Hutchinson
99%+ of us could've done a better job drafting.
ESPN Sources: Kenny Atkinson has decided he won’t become the Charlotte Hornets’ head coach and will remain with Golden State as top assistant. After being offered job during the NBA Finals, further conversations led Atkinson to believe it would be best to remain with Warriors.
Couple years back my career was looking shakey. Stuck w the process. Took the jabs even when I didn’t want to. Full circle to 6k!! Gotta keep going. Thankful for it all!!

Praying for everyone during this time that we are in. Never knew COVID-19 would last this long and have such a huge impact on us day to day. Stay safe, stay blessed, and wear your mask. Love.
No doubt the NFL is considering postponing the rest of this game - but how? This late in the season, a game of this magnitude is crucial to the regular-season outcome ... which suddenly seems so irrelevant.

Best thing about getting knocked down is that you can either stay down or get back up. God gives his toughest battles to his toughest soldiers! Stay locked in!

@NBA
, exactly why
@BPortistime
not a finalist for 6th Man of the Year?
- ONLY NBA non-starter to avg at least 10p & 7r
- 52.3% FG ranks 25th (none of 3 finalists are top 45)
- 47.1% 3pt FG ranks 3rd (better than 3 finalists, all guards)
- 12 dbl-dbls (3 finalists w/3 combined)
Here are the options that Bruce Brown Jr. is faced with leading into free agency:
1. He can return to Denver on a contract that starts at $7.8M (player option in year 2).
This would be similar to what Bobby Portis did in Milwaukee.
That is the maximum he can sign with Denver…
