When the great player for the Bulls was knocked to the floor during their struggle for a rebound, DeRozan became enraged that Portis was staring at him. With just over 30 seconds remaining in the third quarter, the Bulls were behind 80-69 when the incident took place
In his press conference following the game, DeRozan discussed his altercation with Portis. The six-time All-Star said that Portis didn’t treat the game with enough respect and went too far with his “theatrics.”
He fixed his gaze on me. For me, that’s all it takes,” DeRozan remarked. I have no idea who it is. The janitor in the hallway might be the culprit. Have a particular kind of look at me. Just go shoot some hoops, please. Grab the rebound and proceed with the game. Simply put, I’ve never been into the extra-theatrics.
The physicality between the two sides may have given the impression to viewers that the game was closer than it actually was.
