We just lost any chance we had at getting Curry to come home

I thought him winning would lessen the chance, but it could very well work in our favor. Dubs fans can't be mad with him if he leaves now that he has brought them a chip. His heart is in charlotte, his home is in charlotte, his family is in charlotte... Dell's role within the team has just expanded. I don't think it's coincidence. I feel like he will come home as soon as he hits FA.

I love how in a year when LeBron James left a winning franchise in Miami to go back to Cleveland and the finals feature two franchises that haven't won anything in 40 years that it's somehow completely ridiculous for Curry to come to Charlotte in 2017.

We are coming off a 33-49 season, have no stars, and are capped out with management that can't draft worth a lick going nowhere fast. Tell me again why as fans we shouldnt be looking for every glimmer of hope for maybe being a good basketball team at some point?

He needs to stay there. They could potentially be the next "Spurs" if their players stay unselfish come contract time.

​Nope. They have no big man and most of their shots are chucks. They seems more like the 2000s Mavericks/Suns than the Spurs. Plus the Spurs focus on ball movement, Golden State focuses on man movement in their offense.

Everything fell into place for the warriors to win it. Won't be that easy next time. 

Drafting a superstar these days is tough and this city gets no love from the lottery. Free agency is the way to go for the Hornets. 

Hopefully the parents/grandparents as well as friends, family and the Hornets organization can convince the guy come free agency or work on a trade. 

It can happen.

Your salty tears are delicious. Can't decide if I should drink them neat or on the rocks. 

Youve been hating all year and still can't help yourself.

​Am I wrong? Spurs move the ball to get defenses out of position and in recover moments where people are wide open. Warriors are busy with floppy sets, down screens, dribble handoffs, etc. they are about man movement, and they have no Duncan. They are no Spurs.

      Charlotte Hornets Offseason Moves

      By jfra78 · Posted

      Bleacher Report trade and mock has us trading to 9 and picking SG Brayden Burries Charlotte Hornets recieve: Kyrie Irving and No. 9 pick Dallas Mavericks receive: LaMelo Ball, No. 14 pick and No. 18 pick The Hornets just finished their sixth season with Ball. It was only their second with a winning record, their sixth without a playoff trip and the sixth in which someone else paced them in win shares (Kon Knueppel this time around). While they'd surely like to keep building on their second-half momentum, maybe they're just unconvinced that Ball can lead a winning team. Maybe they credit that stretch run less to him and more to the addition of Knueppel, the ascension of Brandon Miller and some out-of-nowhere gains on the defensive end.   Charlotte should be dreaming big right now, and perhaps it believes a steadier hand at point guard is needed to realize that. Or maybe it feels it needs a little more time to bring everything together and thinks that task would be simpler without Ball's money on the books and with a top-10 pick in a loaded draft instead of two selections in the mid-teens.   Either way, this shakeup works. Short-term, a healthy Irving should be far easier to follow than Ball. You may not always know if Irving is playing, but you know what you'll get if he does: elite shotmaking, all-time handles, offensive ingenuity and the ability to work both on and off the ball. He could show this young roster what's required to win for a year or two (he has a $42.4 million player option for 2027-28) or even stick around longer if the partnership proves especially fruitful.   The Hornets also add a building block in Burries, who offers both plug-and-play polish and flashes of shot-creation that hint at star potential. In short, they could better their chances of winning both now and in the future while collecting both the best player in the trade and the highest draft pic

      Maybe? Maybe....?

      I'd hire him in a heartbeat. Hell if he wanted the job, I'd have Canales packing his poo right now and I don't dislike Canales. It's just that firing a 106-58 coach is crazy work. That's a 65% winning percentage. That's the equivalent of averaging 11 wins a season. That's incomprehensible for a fanbase That's never experienced back to back winning seaons.
