Cool.

This is just going to be kicked down the road for months, isn't it?

Certainly looks that way...and will the Hornets as an organization just simply not address it? I guess all they can say is that it's a legal matter...

Wow. What a situation. It's essentially locked in stone that our most important offseason in franchise history is synonymous with worst.

I wonder if it's the defense team or prosecution wanting the continuations. Or if that even really matters

Mitch doesn't seem like the tampering type.

Honestly, his presence on the roster long term could damage LaMelo's brand, and his brand is interwoven with the Hornete brand due to his superstar potential.

High doubt. Melo is a standalone player. His stardom isn't based on Charlotte and will not be affected by Miles' situation. At this point, he has his Lin style stans, and the casuals will come when/if he wins games or puts up gaudy stats. None of them will care about Miles' personal life.

Miles due in court today. I wouldn't think it'd be postponed a 4th time.

The only way Miles ever plays in a Hornets uniform again is if the victim fabricated her story or evidence and the case is dismissed, like Richaun Holmes

I very much doubt he will be rehabilitated here if he's guilty. We'll move on from him and he'll go somewhere else to rebuild

Deadline for taking the QO is October 1st. If he doesn't take it, he will lose significant money in the NBA with no extension options if he ever gets to play again, so I imagine he'll take it.
I don't support domestic violence. Thanks Miles

Be crazy if we had like a beat writer or someone to cover a trial of arguably our best player last season

At this point it's very likely that Miles's own counsel is requesting this. The prosecutor wouldn't be able to keep delaying a hearing over and over again.

And I'm assuming the defense would do that to continue building a case with witnesses or something along those lines?

Yeah, what's the strategy here from defense? Longer they push it,,less public pressure to convict? Better chance wife stops cooperating with prosecution?

Guess he's hoping Thanos snaps his fingers because after those pics became public he's just screwed all the way around
