Rebranding has taken less than a year before. If everybody is on board and gets on it now it very well could be next year

Agreed,

Oklahoma City did it in a few months so there is recent NBA history that indicates the process does not have to take two years as reported.

If the re brand happens, the NBA Commissioner could coordinate the process so New Orleans and Charlotte re brand simultaneously.

However, New Orleans will have to decide on a new brand rather quickly to be ready for next season and still give Charlotte time to react.

I can't remember if it was in the article that John posted or it may have been the Gaston Gazette article or a Bonnell tweet, but Silver also said that it likely would not take 2 years to rebrand us to the Hornets because the NBA already owns the rights so it would be a much easier transition.

It's happening.

Read that too. Seems like both organizations would require most of the off season to transition. If it is going to happen this year, I suspect we will hear something NLT the NBA draft.

I'll give KT his props on this one. No one else can make a discussion about orange/blue cats and purple/teal insects into racist drivel.

He probably shuns vanilla ice cream and all milk-based dairy products because they're white.

Are you implying the Charlotte Hornets are a team for WHITES ONLY? Or that they represent the WHITE PEOPLE of NC ONLY, and no one else? Why would you type that when Im in here clowning the Hornets and their delusional "fans"?

Is this movement "multi-cultural" or is everyone else excluded?

I try to not even get that close.

PSC and KT combine for a lot of racism, but no intelligence. I'm glad you're bigger Bobcat fans than Panther fans.

I don't know how you get the implication that i think the nonexistent Hornets are whites only when you can't see what you say implies the Bobcats are blacks only. If I'm calling you out for racism, I'd be a pretty big hypocrite to be racist myself.

Went to the Fort Bragg Fair Sat. nite and saw two guys wearing brand new (or at least looked that way) Charlotte Hornets caps. Perhaps other areas of the state are getting in on this hype.

Third Degree when are you going to make a basketball related post? Show us you're more than just a corny hick/Panther homer who got lost in the bball forum. The Panthers havent been to the playoffs since Dubbya was in office. How successful is that? Why arent you posting in the playoff threads? Do you even watch the current NBA? Do you realize there have been no new updates about the NO Hornets rebrand since the Jazz declined to give their name back? Why does this movement attract the lowest common denominator and resonate with white racists who know nothing about nor watch NBA bball? Its just funny how the people in this thread dont participate or care about anything else NBA related but think someone should care about them. As long as white racists like Third degree are attached to this movement you're not going anywhere. This isnt NASCAR, this isnt small market losing NFL football, this is the NBA. Even the resurgance of the Hornets snapbacks was started by young black kids in this market, not some hicks who dont know who Reggie Evans is. WE set the trends and determine whats cool, not Bubba on the Observer blogs. When WE decide them Hornets retro hats are played out, so will this short sighted delusional movement of 100 people. Alienating folks like myself from your cause is your biggest blunder. But go ahead, make it a hicks only affair. Play up Hornets history and ancestors that todays kids arent related to or give a rip about. Treat this like its the Panthers. Lol.
