Bob Johnson is still a minority owner you know.

...and still very much in Michael's ear. Seeing our joke of a newspaper and the haters try to stick it to Bob Johnson while he is still in ownership and has alot of influence over our current owner and front office just might just be FAIL of the decade. :lol:

As are The Supersonics...

But seriously, am I the only one who thinks New Orleans should change there name so we can go back to being the Charlotte Hornets?

I agree with this, but if this can't happen, I really don't see the point.

I love how people act like sooooo much has changed over 2 months when all Jordan has done is written two letters to the public.

Yet, those two letters have meant more than anything Bob did. Its the little things that count. The only name change id be down for would be it the league let the there be a name swap deal kinda thing..aka Charlotte gets the hornets back, new orleans the jazz and utah can get either the bobcats or come up with their own. We could even use the bobcats as sweet throwbacks...???

No. I wish they would have pulled a Cleveland Browns and let us keep the name, etc. when they moved. But it's too late now.

How many letters did Jerry Richardson have to send out?

Hell, he won't even talk to the press.

Wow, this is great news!

I literally just got done w/ an e-mail/letter about why Jordan should change the name to the "Flight". I sent it to the Bobcats front office (it probably won't get read, but it's definitely worth a shot)

All the help (from fans) we can get will send a message to MJ (which it seems like he already knows)

In hindsight, I'm so glad Bob Johnson was rewarded the franchise and not Larry Bird. Now we have the greatest ever running the team and he seems to really be in tune w/ with the fans.

I'm super excited for Charlotte basketball!

Thank you MJ!!!

It's more about the buzz that's being created.

Not actually changes to the franchise.

He can do that though by changing the name.

Jordan wants this to be his team...not BOB Johnson's.

I think, for this franchise, the fail of the decade was naming the team the BOBcats ...after his ego, which took precedence over what the fans wanted. Doomed from the start.

MJ can change everything. It is truly in his hands.

Why don't you quit being selfish and think about the core fanbase that has supported this team since day 1 and has bought a ton of merchandise?

So willing to spend other people's money and turn their fan apparel into a dishrag.

I think if they change the name at this point, its gonna leave the same bad taste in my mouth that Shinn did with his mishandling of the Hornets.

They change the name, and I will probably no longer continue to support them.

      Auburn literally could've had 20+ fouls in that half. Hate playing teams like this. They picked up 5-6 quick ones then like always happens the refs start to get whistle shy not wanting to call a foul every possession and they start getting away with murder. The way they call the games encourages this type of play. If they keep fouling just keep calling it.

      Bryce Young what a crazy statement

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      I think last year actually set him back.  Our interior online was one of the worst I've seen.  Combine that with Frank archaic system and about 10 other things and then Canales comes in and implements his system regardless who the players were. A lot of coaches think their system can work with any player and don't do any or as much as they should with tailoring it to fit the player.  Canales admitted that pretty much in our first game but when he scaled it back and Bryce still looked horrible so he was benched.  That move right there is one of the big things that has sold me on Canales.  I judge him based on what he's done since he was renamed the starter.  I probably need to give him a little more rope because it probably seemed in his first game like it was just like last year.  Another new coach with his system and Bryce just went along.  Both the coach and the player are adapting to each other and I think that we are back, baby!!!!  It's just like Drew Brees and Sean Payton except without the mole and the butthole lips.

      This is why I hate playing hackathon teams. They get away with half of theirs because of ref whistle fatigue then they notice the foul count discrepancy and then you start picking up ticky tack bullshit to even the count on the box score.
