With Cho and Clifford in Vegas, that is extremely unlikely.

He could be meeting with MJ himself

Maybe, but given that absolutely no one is reporting this, I think it's more likely that he isn't in Charlotte at all. I guess stranger things have happened.

If there is a meeting I suspect it is at a neutral, private location within a quick private jet flight from Vegas but not a spot that would get media attention.

Area 51?

I can't wait for another season of "I'll pass up a wide open 3 so I can take a step inside the line and then fade away while looking badass" Henderson.

for a talented basketball player, he really plays the worst style. I get emulating Michael Jordan and Kobe, but you're Gerald **** Henderson. We want spacing, not 14 points a game from contested fadeaways. I'd take probably 40 other shooting guards in the league over him.

I think there is still a holding pattern on him until the Love deal is made. With the possibility of Waiters going somewhere teams with space are keeping there options open. Once that move happens I think there will be a market for Lance.

Do you think Cho has any interest in Waiters over Lance?

Over Lance? I'd sure as hell hope not, Lance is easily the better basketball player.

MJ is vacationing with his wife and new babies. He is not even in the States. That's why he had to Skype Gordon.

Waiters just thinks he's better than he actually is. Henderson had those same kinds of character issues when he went out of his way to not deal with Larry Brown.

Trust me, you don't know Dion Waiters like I 'know' Dion Waiters. He's been kicked out of every high school in Philadelphia during his prep years that lead to him going to a school out in New Jersey to graduate. Under disguise, a lot of the reason why he didn't start at Syracuse was because of his off-court antics and it was moreso a punishment by Jim Boeheim masqueraded as something situational to keep it out of the media's hands. Fast forward to his NBA career, he's been rumored to have got into physical altercations with Kyrie Irving that lead to him having a 2-game absence in which he wasn't suspended but Irving did appear in a game the next night with a black eye

I'll just leave it at that. I'm not a psychic. I don't claim to know it all. However, I'm familiar with Waiters as he is from South Philly, and I'm in acquaintance with a few people in his inner circle

Aware of most of that.

When he does all that AND beats women, they'll he be Lance Stephenson.

Reiterated for the thousandth time, it's a nickname given to me by my ex-girlfriends for making them look stupid in debates. Do you know how hard it is to win a argument with a woman? Damn near impossible, but I've conquered the feat plenty of times :lol:

The Wolves motivation could be 2 pronged. One, they may like Zeller. Two, they may want to steer Waiters to Charlotte so that we are less likely to pursue Klay Thompson as an unrestricted agent in 2015. They sway in clear day how we forced Utah to match a max offer for Gordon Hayward and maybe they calculate the Warriors won't be willing to match a max for Klay Thompson. If Waiters goes to us, we have less incentive to try to steal Klay Thompson from the Warriors on a max offer, leaving Thompson open to sign a max offer from the Wolves. Ultimately the Wolves could send out Love, and bring in Klay Thompson in 2015 instead of Waiters in 2014 yet still add Anthony Bennett, Tristan Thompson, Cody Zeller + picks.

Maybe they were stupid to begin with.

And I don't believe there's such a thing as winning a debate with a woman. Initially it appears as though she has lost but she finds a way to take a chunk out of your ass in other ways down the road.
