Tyrus Thomas has "no regrets" about tirade/Bulls-Pacers preview


From the Trib:
INDIANAPOLIS -- In his first comments since serving a one-game suspension for berating Bulls coach Vinny Del Negro over a lack of playing time, forward Tyrus Thomas told the Tribune he has "no regrets" over the incident.

Those two words might have represented the longest of Thomas' answers. Here's the transcript of the interview, conducted before Tuesday's game against the Pacers:

Tribune: Do you have any regrets over the incident?

Thomas: "No regrets."

Tribune: How do you move forward from it?

Thomas: "Ain't nothing to harp on. It's over with."

Tribune: Are you frustrated?

Thomas: "Nah. I'm just going to play. There's nothing to be frustrated about."

Tribune: Vinny has said he has a clean slate with you. Do you believe him?

Thomas: "If that's what he said, then that's what it is. It's over with. There's nothing to talk about. It's all good."


Tyrus Thomas is so immature and as I said before, the Bulls need to move him before his trade value hits an all-time low.

Meanwhile, Tyrus will be back in the Bulls rotation tonight according to KC Johnson as the Bulls take on the Indiana Pacers tonight at 6:00 PM on WCIU at Conseco Fieldhouse. The Pacers are a struggling team this season and Danny Granger is only shooting around 42% after an All-Star season last year with the Pacers. I think the Bulls take this one but who knows with this team. In the Bulls last 25 games, they are 9-2 against winning teams but only 6-8 against losing teams. This is a classic example of playing up to your competition and playing down to your competition.

Prediction:
Bulls 97
Pacers 91
