Anything is possible. Look at the Milwaukee Bucks. All it takes is that one special player and you can win a championship.

The likelihood is low and it’ll have to be through hitting a home run in the draft (probably twice in the span of 2-3 years) but it is possible 

This is the best answer. Don't know if it'll happen in my lifetime though.

The franchise is cursed. Shinn made some voodoo deal before hauling ass out of Charlotte. Plus it is ran by a cheap owner unwilling to do what it takes to have a chance for prosperity. Ironic that MJ kept the 90s Hornets from breaking through and now he is also keeping the Hornets from breaking through.

We will never attract super stars. We need to get lucky and get the #1 pick with a superstar consensus #1 overall pick. But we know how the NBA loves to screw us in the lottery. But if we could and we show we have a dynamic young core, then maybe a star FA or 2 will come. I just don't see it ever happening. I doubt even Lamelo resigns with us with the lights of LA calling his name already

    • Strongly disagree with this. Not saying Kucci will be a playoff caliber starter. But, if you look at the guys who are playoff starters and those with recent playoff success, he is matching their trajectories to a tee. Once other teams get enough tape/experience and start to gameplan against, there is an adjustment period. Pyotr has all of the skills to be a Vezina level tendy. What matters is how he evolves from here. The league knows his tendencies and have learned how to exploit him. Can he continue to mature and improve, or will he settle in for a long lucrative career on the bench? Next season will be a turning point for Kucci, one way or another. Hopefully, he proves me right and we have our goalie for the next decade. Lord knows the rest of our goalie pipeline looked like garbage when they got thrown in the fire this season.
    • I can only assume you never played sports at any high level or you would know the tiny bump you get moving up the draft is far outweighed by the damage you do to coaches and players whose future relies on sticking in the league and performing. Players see you don't care about them or the team success and will help you tank by giving up. Once that happens your franchise will suffer for years and develop a loser mentality like we have.  No that would be crappy advice and saying it repeatedly doesn't make it better.
