[DJ feed me moore]

inshallah brothers!

Kind of embarrassing no bigger names were interested in buying this franchise. Would have loved to have a richer owner than MJ.

That doesn't seem likely.

But I guess we'll see.

I'm from the future the Hornets will make the playoffs next year with Scoot and Miles back but every hack analyst in sports is going to say it was because of this

Exactly. Why these two clowns? Jordan is the 90's goat and he refused to bestow knowledge or even an attempt at guiding or developing our young players over the years and then he sells to these two? That's about as close as you can get to a fug you to the fans if I've ever seen one. I'm just saying. And I grew up a massive Jordan fan.

Where'd you hear that why would he refuse to mentor his own players lol. Several have mentioned getting feedback from him. Bouknight specifically had a big game after advice from Jordan.

Yes they are still meeting with MJ. Also MJ still has a small minority stake of the franchise. He will still be around the Hornets just no longer the top dog when it comes to decisions.

 

Maybe the new guys will spend more money and take more risk.

 

I also wonder what this move means for Clifford.

The Clifford thing is the biggest component!! Isn't the Bucks ex coach still available? Think so... regardless  I'd love an upgrade!! I know  Mitch probably  wants to keep Clifford  but we need an upgrade  at coach.  Maybe MJ will become more of a financial backing type minority  owner.  Hopefully  these guys collaborate and form a dynamic structure  to succeed!!

Those two already owned part of the team, why they were talked to first and are backed by a billionaire. (Mentioned him when the possible sale first broke news months ago

[carpanfan96]

Daniel Sundheim is who I was talking about and he's the money behind the new group.

I've heard vaguely of him speaking to Bouknight. Heard of him speaking to Hayward in trying to lure him here. But I'm talking about actively engaging your players on a consistent basis and trying to help them improve their game and the younger kids transitioning to the NBA not on one random encounter here and there. If you thinks he's done enough or more than he could cool we'll just disagree. But he's the GOAT not some random veteran.

Yep both Budenholzer and Doc Rivers are available and would be immediate upgrades to help develop a young team like ours.

Forgot about Doc but definitely  either!!!

[CarolinaRideorDie]

Don't know much about these 2 new owners but anything has to be better than MJ right? Was Charlotte really that desperate to have an NBA franchise back just to be mediocre or a trash organization since Bobcats days? Tepper shoulda just bought the Hornets too. At least I know he cares. 

[chknwing]

tepper should have bought the team so he could relocate all 3 at once

I trust J. Cole and Eric Church more than the other guys.
