HELL YEAAAAAH
I USED TO PRAY FOR THIS
I know it’s not a rational thought but my god they better not move the team
This good?
Wouldn’t mind owner willing to spend more, especially if MJ sticks around as minor owner
Bruh this could make the Hornets even worse, or could be a start to a dynasty 😲
Wait shit this is the GameStop guy that’s certainly less than ideal
Please
* Don’t move the team
* Bring in a new owner
* Bring in a new GM
* Bring in a new Head Coach
Jordan has been checked out for a while now. And NBA insiders like Simmons said he was looking for a buyer. I just hope this works out for the best and most importantly the team stays in Charlotte.
No more Mitch/Buzz is all in reading
Who are these dudes?
Look as long as we stay in the Carolinas and we get someone who wants to win I’m happy
Edit: and dump Mitch I’ll be ecstatic
Amazing news
Hey, Adam… you could really increase the sale price of the team, if we somehow got the number 1 pick.
WHAT IF: this is a strategic move by MJ to adam silver to give us the #1 pick or he sells the team and no longer becomes the only majority black owner + arguably the NBA’s goat removing himself from the league. Would be a bad look on the NBA if he leaves
Gabe Plotkin, the same guy who shut down his hedge fund last year because he lost billions of dollars?
you guys will stop rejoicing once you realize that the Hornets owner could be Gabe Plotkin

Somebody call Tepper and see if he wants in, this off-season has made me a believer
No problem with the hornets being sold but i would rather it be by different people
I’m conflicted. On one hand he hasn’t been a great owner and hasn’t helped this team win but at the bare minimum, he cares about basketball and this area. Imagine if we get a new owner who doesn’t care about the team and putting out a winning profit.
This means we getting Wemby so Silver can drive up the price. Right? Here’s the Hornets and the no 1 pick for sale.
LET’S FUCKING GOOOO
After he sell they get Wemby and be great for a long time.
