Hornets pick up option for Cho, will be GM next season. Just shoot me now.

The Charlotte Hornets have picked up the option for next season on general manager Rich Cho's contract, according to league sources.

Sources told ESPN.com that the Hornets recently activated the 2017-18 in Cho's existing deal.

The Hornets were eliminated from the Eastern Conference playoff chase ‎last week, unable to overcome the respective injury absences of big men Cody Zeller and Frank Kaminsky earlier this season and ultimately punished for their 0-9 record in games decided by three points or less.

The Michael Jordan-owned Hornets have made the playoffs twice in coach Steve Clifford's four seasons, winning 43 games in 2013-14 and 48 last season before this season's slump to 36-44 entering Monday's play.

Well I will not watch until they fire him. I only watched a handful of games this season. Refuse to watch them while he is GM. Oh well there is always Panthers and Tar heels to watch. Hopefully MLS soon is coming to Carolina.

Trying to for around the Raleigh/Durham region.  At least the Goodmon's around here are.

Sadly they would be better ran than the Hornets currently are. Anybody who keeps Cho on after his tenure here so far is crazy. I love Michael Jordan, but the guy cannot run a franchise. Sad times for the NBA in Charlotte. Maxed on cap, terrible draft picks, poor free agencies, and recently bad trades. We are supposed to support this team financially as well? Nah.

Yeah, couldn't agree more man.  I hope MJ get's his head out of his ass, but I doubt he will.

Yeah it is sad. I want to root for them so bad, but it is hard to be a fan of a team that is the Cleveland Browns of the NBA.

Can't say Browns.  I would go with Detroit Lions of the NBA.  I mean, even the Lions have winning seasons.  The Browns never win.  It's just awful at this point.

True, that is a better comparison. Thing is the Lions just seem unlucky as the Hornets seem to just be inept.

there are teams that handle success well and teams that handle it poorly.. we have mistook our success of making the playoffs as being a quality team when it really was other teams tanking and us gobbling up a few wins against sh*tty teams..

we have now inflated our team with bloated contracts of players that cashed in on Cho's stupidity.. our franschise is the definition of "1 step forward 2 steps back"..

[Proudiddy]

Lol, reading our recap under Clifford's tenure = The Carolina Panthers of the NBA.

[Guest Stupid Cho]

Lol what a pathetic franchise. MJ is a joke. You'd think that the man would be all about WINNING. 

I don't even think MJ the owner/gm would draft MJ in a draft. He'd take a white big over himself.

Unfortunately, Michael Jordan might be the worst thing that could have happened to this franchise.  He is absolutely clueless.  Surprisingly, a lot of folks would love to have him as majority owner of the Panthers.  No thank you. Please stay away.

Cho is not the problem, Jordan is.

Hopefully, he figures out that he doesn't know poo about football.  He would make no moves, I'm wishing here.
