The Charlotte Bobcats Arena in downtown Charlotte is an extremely hi-tech facility. We could feed images from cameras or computers to any of the small or large screen monitors in the arena with incredible ease. But even more amazing than that was the sight of Michael Jordan strolling down the hall, saying "Hey" to everyone. That was a thrill. We weren't able to get on MJ's calendar that day, but we did hear his music blasting out of his office, just down the hall from Bob Johnson's. While we were there some players were practicing on the gleaming practice court off the lower level. They were all draft candidates, showing off their shots to Michael Jordan, hoping for a place on the team. That shot was strictly off-limits to our cameras too. But Bob Johnson was incredibly gracious, focused and clear about his message. It was a pleasure to interview him. Just talking to him gives you hope.
