MJ Exclusive Interview

[Bosnian-Bobcats-Fan]

yeah i wonder who's complaining too everyone needs to buy into dunlap. This was a great interview and nice to see why MKG was drafted over robinson, and smart strategy letting the season play out and see how hendo plays to see if we should keep him long term, mj seems to really like him alot

I am just going to stick my neck out an suggest Tyrus Thomas... I reckon his attention span lasts about as long as a game of NBA 2k13. He is always going to be a guy who gets annoyed the more you talk to him and get at him for doing little things.

Really enjoyed reading that today

agreed... you notice how MJ didn't mention him ONCE in either interview... and he basically spoke of every pertinent player.... and this clown's our highest paid player.

It's not lost on them that they need to rid themselves of T Time.

Funnily enough, before opening night last season MJ did a brief sit down with Steve (I think) and said the player he expected to have a breakout season was............ Tyrus


That went well

Some highlights from Jordan’s 23-minute interview:

Kinda wish MJ had gone with his other number and done a 45 minute interview

Glad he basically said put up of shut up with regards to the practice lengths. Dunlap had mentioned the intent was to break the players down and see how they reacted when exhausted (since there were no significant injuries, it was a great idea).

I think a lot of his answers were politically correct (regarding Harden: 75% of the league probably made inquiring calls..MJ going into any more detail would up root who we would've shipped out for him--anyone except MKG). It's also a subliminal message to that Charlotte will grow into being a destination for big name Free Agents).

I also like the he is distancing himself from the players a bit. I sure he gets himself in awkward spots when it's time to negotiate a Bobcats or Jordan Brand contract to his 'buddies'. I'd like to know who's brain he picks more when preparing for these interviews....Cho, Whitfield or Higgins...though I doubt he prepares for the interviews, so the brain picking is more of a perpetual thing.

So he couldnt get a Henderson & Gordon for harden straight up going?

He probably feels like a schmuck for doing that too after Tyrus did such a no show last year.

Maybe it was Tyrus but I'm thinking more the vets. I doubt seriously if it were any of the guys hanging around over the summer as they've already been working their collective asses off. MKG is well ,known for his killer work ethic so he's out. It'd almost have to be players that weren't here...so that'd leave Gana, Tyrus possibly Taylor (but I seriously doubt it) and the older guys.

good to see Jordan giving a public interview a day before our first game this season, he seems very confident in what were trying to acheive and i think we will see a difference over the next couple of seasons.
