The NBPA held a meeting in Los Angeles where they discussed the current status of collective bargaining talks with owners.

"There's definitely some guys in there saying that they're ready to fold," Washington Wizards center JaVale McGee said. "But the majority are ready to stand strong."

Luc Richard Mbah a Moute disagreed with McGee, saying "there's no such thing as player folding."

"We all know where we're at. Players understand where we're at. There's no players folding," Mbah a Moute said when he exited the meeting. "We've all been together since this whole process and we're going to stay together. We've made a lot of concessions so far, so it's up to the owners now to start having a fair deal."

McGee, the first player to emerge from the talks at roughly 3 p.m. PT, characterized the small number of players to attend the meeting as very disappointing," but said that the union addressed a lot of the players' concerns in Friday's meeting.

Kevin Garnett, Baron Davis and Tyson Chandler also attended Friday's meeting, along with Jason Kapono, Leon Powe and Chuck Hayes.
