I'm told Hornets are not pursuing Shawn Marion.

So most likely Shawn Marion will be a Hornet lol

 

I tweeted this a while back and it still holds true: Hornets aren't showing signs they want Stephenson.

Just like the Bobcats will not become the Hornets and that the Hornets are not interested in Lance Stephenson?

[Chaos]

Michael Jordan has no interest in becoming the majority owner.

Bonnet boy is dead to me.

Did he really tweet that the name change wouldn't happen?

[SuperJTheGreat]

People who say Harrison Barnes is sliding are just plain wrong, and I'm not often that frank. Bet he's a Cav, if not a Wizard.

Wizards?!

This dude is terrible. Bet Marion becomes a Hornet today.

Did he really tweet that the name change wouldn't happen?

 

He always seemed weirdly bitter about the possibility of a name change, and I could never figure out why.  Even other guys at the Observer like Sorensen would write these stories about what a good idea the change was, and how much the name meant to the community.  But Bonnell always just blew it off and acted like the whole thing didn't matter.  I never understood it.  (I'll add this was before the name change was made official...back when it was all speculation after New Orleans announced their change.)

I hope he's wrong.  I think Marion would be a nice addition off the bench and bring vet leadership.  He's still a really solid player.
