Any fellow members on here want a Michael Kidd-Gilchrist or Kemba Walker (Charlotte Hornets) jersey as much as I do?? I cant wait!! I know it'll happen soon.

The Hornets (name, logo, colors) will bring so much energy and vibes back into the city of Charlotte. I cant wait to get me some Hornets gears!

I would love it. I think they should change back to the Hornets and at the opening game of next season they should bring back as many Charlotte Hornets players as possible for some kind of ceremony.

I agree!!!!!
I know MJ will make it happen. It'll happen before the Draft.

I can't wait to see our Hornets name and hat at the Draft Lottery and on Draft night!

I can't wait to see MKG/Kemba names on the back of a Hornets jersey.

I also can't wait to see a rookie (Zeller, Noel, Len, Shabazz, McLemore, etc) in it.

Going to be incredibly crazy!

There has to be a lot of festivities with Charlotte getting the Hornets name back. I'd love for part of it to be a Hornets reunion game. Get like Curry, Mugzy, Zo, Mason, b-Diddy and anybody else that wants to come

Will be a short lived buzz (pun intended) if they do not upgrade the level of talent/play on this team.

The only thing that matters is winning.

The team name and colors are meaningless.

No brainer.

i agree to some extent- if we make the name change and have another offseason with no name FAs and a miss in the draft pick dept- we will still be a joke of the league..

but if we get McLemore or Len and another PF/C and win maybe .500 of our games.. it will be a huge story

I think a lot has to do with the name. Maybe I'm just thinking over my head but the Bobcats have been so bad. No one wants to come play for the "BOBCATS". This name attracts little attention.

Changing the name back to the HORNETS, it brings fresh winning air back. Even though we'll still be with the same roster, more stars may want to come play for this organization. Bc it's the CHARLOTTE HORNETS and owned by MJ.

I agree that a rebrand to Hornets might help wipe off some off the stink that is the 'Bobcats' name. But won't mean a thing without solid talent. If we could pull off a draft day hit, with both are current number ones, and maybe sign a decent big and become a competitive team, you might see Time Warner fillup and rival the Hive.

The Bobcats have young talent and will continue to get young talent through the draft, FA, and trades. Cho is really good at building a team so I'm not worried.

If we can rebrand the Hornets, everyone will forget about the BOBCATS.

Sure it's the same players, but a new IDENTITY, logo, colors, etc. Its all about the CULTURE and history of the HORNETS. Players will want to come play here bc of the history behind it.

I'm setting my hopes higher than some of y'all, but I would not rule out a CP3 to Charlotte. Wouldn't it be nice for him to have the ability to come play for his home state and his sponsor MJ? Wouldn't he look amazing again in the HORNETS unis, just this time in Charlotte.

The name CHARLOTTE HORNETS will be able to attract a lot of players. Not just that it'll be one of the best selling accessories/gears.

If we can land a or some very good talents in the upcoming draft, I trust Cho to work the FA hugely to bring in players.

I'm as Pro Hornets as anyone here. In fact I am going to wear my Charlotte Hornets hat every time I leave the house until it is announced that the B*****s are going to be the Hornets again. That said, CP3 is not coming to play here. He bullied his way out of New Orleans because he is in the new school of superstars joining big market teams together.

That said I do believe that changing the name will re energize the franchise a little bit. After all what does the name Bobcats make you think of? To me it's orange vomit colored uniforms and embarrassingly bad basketball.

Yea like I said I'm just having hopes on Cp3. But some better players will want to come here
