I think you've been banned more times and created more accounts than Grits at this point.

 

Quite the achievement.

Hopefully we get like a black alternate Buzz City uniform.

Hopefully we get like a black alternate Buzz City uniform.

It's all but certain that there will be a teal "Buzz City" alternate, unfortunately it will probably be sleeved. All signs point to a white home and purple away jersey. Interesting that the official logo color is purple but the uniform color is dark purple. The black and light blue are in all likelihood going to be for pinstripes only.

It's pretty obvious they're going with purple as the main color, whereas the original was mainly teal. Also interesting that they're likely going with Hornets on the uniform instead of Charlotte.

Then again, maybe the NBA is holding off releasing all the colors and wordmarks until the uniforms are unveiled.

The uniform designs will probably be "leaked" sometime between now and June 19th anyways.

A teal jersey with black lettering saying Buzz City would be tight. Pinstripes would be purple, black, white and blue.

I'm not a big fan of all the "Buzz City" stuff.  If you want to put it on a t-shirt or a hat, that's fine, but keep that off of the uniforms and the court design.

The NBA screwed this whole thing up over a decade ago. The team should've never been allowed to move, but that's a whole different issue. They should've left the history in Charlotte from the beginning. Before the NBA ever approved the move they promised Charlotte that they would have a team again within two years. They could've done it right from the beginning if they had half a brain.

Here's what they should've done;

The NBA should've took ownership of the Charlotte Hornets from Shinn & created an expansion team in New Orleans. Then give Shinn the new franchise in New Orleans with a new brand & 2002 founded date. The only thing Shinn takes with him from Charlotte is 15 players. Then the NBA should've declared that the Charlotte Hornets were temporarily a league-owned franchise & would resume play in two seasons after new ownership had been selected & established. Then everything is clear & the history is actually true.

New Orleans Pelicans- 2002-present

Charlotte Hornets- 1988-02, 2004-present

And they should've gave the team to Larry Bird, not Bob freaking Johnson.
