Congrats!
This subreddit is a joke.
Bro imagine paying $3B for the Charlotte Hornets
Michael Jordan retires again!
Hornet starting backcourt: LaMelo Ball, Michael Jordan
Why?
I’m so used to seeing the crying Jordan meme I thought Woj was using it too haha
Woj really tweeted a nearly crying Jordan image with this news lmao
GOAT owner
When the service comes back and your phone starts blowing up with all the texts you missed…
Bought it for $180M in 2010, price is reported to be $3B..annual growth rate of about 24%.
Talk about an ROI .. what a finesse
J.Cole is part of the new ownership group!
As a Washington Commie fan and a Hornets fan, this has been the best year for my teams in my life.
perfect example of rich people failing upwards
The NBA is better with a former player as an owner.
Unfortunate.
Haha, maybe crying Jordan will finally retire now that MJ sold the team
Finally, some success for MJ in basketball 🏀🙂🏀
/r/nba mods are finalizing stepping down
Hooray, we’ll have an owner that can afford bringing our team to 5-star hotels like every other team in the NBA.
THERE IS A GOD 🙏 🙏 Perhaps my suffering can now be eased, at least, after these long decades of cheering for Charlotte basketball.
Greatest owner in hornets history.
Also this move is great for everyone cause the way he’s selling he likely remains extremely power in the hornets without having to foot the bill.
Depending on how much he sells he could also put himself in position to buy back the hornets if he so chooses.
/r/wallstreetbets in shambles
I guess with this end of an era in Charlotte, if any of you have the 2 and half hours of free time required, do yourself a favor and watch the Secret Base doc about the 7-59 Bobcats, it is absolutely wonderful https://youtu.be/F3_whi6KuLo
Imagine if he actually used the crying Jordan Meme for this headline 😂
Did they just spam all the news they missed with their stupid blackout at the same time lol
Cowards
WE ARE SO BACK
Dreamville city edition jerseys incoming
Cool another reason for Pippen to talk shit about Jordan.
The rich get richer
Curious to know what his next venture will be
So… He’s unretiring from playing again?
I know how many Charlotte fans feel, but this sucks as a basketball fan. Seeing Jordan around was always cool. Don’t think he’ll be at games or the game in general after this.
End of an error.
Damn i bet MJ lost about 600 mil when they lost wemby sweepstakes
I guess this one wasn’t that personal.
This isn’t breaking news anymore lmao
