This is the best thing that could happen for the franchise. They may have a chance to compete with all of the MJ sycophants cleared out.

What a chickenshit move by MJ. Can't make it work, quit. 

I am kind of kidding, but this may be good for the team to have new blood leading, these guys have proven they don't know what they are doing.

I will miss having the GOAT as owner, but he wasn't putting the required resources in the team...There were several reports that head coaches passed up our offers becuase we didn't want to pay assistants. We were the exact opposite of Tepper and the Panthers.

These two guys in Woj's report...they aren't rich at all. I surely hope that some mega rich guy comes in an blows MJ away with an offer

Tepper? May as well make it a clean sweep for Charlotte.

The Hornets are so far behind a lot of the NBA when it comes to infrastructure. Look at the Greensboro Swarm - they have a horrendous franchise record, there are no resources invested in that at all.

That said, MJ has been good on the business side. People forget how atrocious Bob Johnson and the Bobcats were. No TV deal, no sponsors, no connection to the community. MJ fixed all that. In part why he's in for a big payday.

Loved MJ as a player, but he's been complete ass as an owner.  Sadly, I don't think him selling is going to make much of a difference.  Unfortunately, I've accepted this franchise is not ever going to be good or a perennial contender.

Golden State Warriors were crap before they sold. Bucks too. It just takes the right smart, rich owner.

Best Hornets news in years. Winning the lottery or at least moving up to 2 to get Scoot would top it. Jordan great player but it literally could not get worse as an owner, what a mess he's made with this team since he bought.

To a group that has someone as a minority Hawks owner? Weird.

why? lots of minority owners are just waiting in line to become majority owners when a team goes up for sale. Tepper was a steelers minority owner for a long time waiting to buy a team.

      They gave him franchise QB money. Sorry but if you don't earn it you can be embarrassed.   He's rich he can take it. Stop feeling sorry for people who can't live up to their contract. This isn't a sport to be soft. Daniels deserves to give back some of that money he stole if you ask me.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      And it was coming off of a bye week. Perhaps he should vacation a bit in Germany in the off season, something certainly seemed to help him there.  No, really... He showed maturation and the possibility that he's turning a corner. That wasn't the NY Giants out there, but the back to back Super Bowl champions with the #3 defense in the league, with them coming off of a prime time loss. And that was a 9-1 team we just played literally down to the last second. Bryce played so well that maybe, maybe he wins over some nay-sayers. It's still early, though, but what a nice breath of fresh air that was. You can win quite a few games if that is your normal performance. It is obvious that we are still on the learning curve, though. But that was one helluva test he just took. Some of these QBs coming out of college just don't have a lot of games under their belts, especially in top end programs. They are perhaps just a year to two years behind center in games that matter before they move up. It can take them some time to hit their stride. We can still be cautious about our future and still celebrate a great game by the kid, though, and we should. He earned the laurels today, or had before they were snatched away at the last second.
