Chicago Bulls forward Bobby Portis was not happy with Kevin Durant during Golden State’s 146-109 win over Chicago on Friday.
Portis appeared to get slightly injured after jostling with Durant in the third quarter, and then got in his face after the fact. Portis seemed to believe whatever happened was intentional.

We now have confirmation that Portis believes that Durant was in fact trying to injure him, according to the Chicago Tribune.
“Yeah, that wasn’t inadvertent,” he said. “If I would have done that, I would have gotten a foul called on me. I guess it’s just who you’re playing against. Everything is officiated different toward whoever it is, but if you look back at the video at the time, it was obvious.”
“I asked him: ‘You got a problem or what?’ ” Portis said of his verbal alter
Asked if Durant apologized, Portis replied: “Ain’t no apologies in basketball. Nobody feels sorry for nobody. That’s how it goes.”
Durant has yet to respond to the accusation.
