    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">CHICAGO -- James Posey didn't offer any apologies Saturday. And he has no plans to say "sorry" to Kirk Hinrich, either.

    "Do you apologize after all your fouls?" asked Posey, who will serve a one-game suspension when the Miami Heat meet the Chicago Bulls Sunday in Game 4 of their first-round playoff series.

    Posey knocked down Hinrich in the open court late in Thursday's 109-90 loss, resulting in a flagrant foul two, ejection and, ultimately, suspension.

    Posey reiterated Saturday that the foul against Hinrich was just that: a foul. Not intentional. And not dirty.

    The NBA apparently disagreed.

    Posey is the second Heat player to be suspended for a game in this series along with Udonis Haslem, who sat out Game 2 after throwing his mouthpiece toward referee Joey Crawford in the opener. Haslem and the Heat's Antoine Walker also received technical fouls seconds after Posey's ejection on Thursday.</div>

    If you saw what posey did, you know it warrants a suspension. no apology? come on! He came running on Hinrichs blindside and bumped him like they were playin football.
