Don't expect James Posey to apologize to Bulls guard Kirk Hinrich for the hard foul which lead to his ejection and subsequent one game suspension.
"Do you apologize after all your fouls?" asked Posey.
"All you've been hearing and reading about is the intent to hurt someone and things like that," Posey said. "Back in the day, the guy would have just bounced up, got two free throws and went about his business. Nowadays, it's not like that. You breathe on somebody it's liable to be a foul."
