    " Morey, under league rules, is not allowed meet with Bosh or the agent prior to that time, so Morey can not confirm that he is, indeed, en route to meet with Bosh or any other free agent"


    that explains why they're driving aimlessly...they probably needed to kill time and that's why they visited Martin, since he was "nearby" and morey still wasnt sure of where their target FA (bosh?) would be holding meetings.


    we're pretty sure they met Kevin in Clearwater, Fl or the immediate area...

    FWIW, here's a picture of the IMG Academy's basketball facility, where I think Martin works with David Thorpe.

    Looks nothing like the gym pictured on rockets.com

    Do you know of any reason why they are meeting Fri and not tomorrow? You think it's a typo?

    i know the knicks have a ong day tomorrow visiting Johnson in La then flying back to cleveland to meet Lebron...that may be why they can't make it until friday, but is bosh forcing other teams to wait until then also?

    Might make sense since the caravan was 20 hrs away from chicago back in Clearwater Fl. They wouldnt make it until tomorrow evening, get some rest, and then they cna be up fri morning.

    Perhaps a typo, not sure. I think it will be tonight/tomorrow when they meet. Who knows.

    yeah i mentioned earlier that it didnt look like the court, looks more like a high school gym. All i know is that banner was for hillsborough county, which is in florida, and right smack over Clearwater. Maybe Thorpe had the court reserved for something else and Martin wanted a solo workout?

    okay they drove 20 hours from Leeds to where they are now... someone get a map and draw a 20 hour drive circle from Leeds to figure out where they are. If they are near Cincinnati I'm going to be ticked I wasn't invited.

    20 hours? You can get to Denver or Boston in almost exactly 20 hours from Leeds.

    Jason in the video said they drove 20 hours overnight and arrived at their hotel at 6 am... then had an 11am meeting with Kevin.

    That math doesn't work with your scenario.
