Congrats to NOR. They are getting an All-Star and a franchise player. Let's all laugh at the Lolcats fans while they get a role player! Gotta laugh, the worst team/franchise in NBA history can't even get the #1 pick.

Woe is me. Fans and the NBA prefer the Hornets in NO over Charlotte. Catch The Buzz did it! Their support and promo of the Hornets. They stuck it to Charlotte! The Hornets brand deserved this, right JGibs? Stern wouldve been a fool not to help the Hornets, now that theyre out of Charlotte.

Are you suggesting that the people trying to bring the Hornets name back to Charlotte somehow convinced Stern to fix the lottery?

They claimed the Hornets brand is more viable than the Bobs. They stressed saving the Hornets over saving the Bobcats made more business sense. I think Stern and the NBA listened. Catchthebuzz should come to Bobcat games this season decked in Anthony Davis jerseys screaming "LETS GO HORNETS! LETS GO HORNETS! STICK IT TO CHARLOTTE! STICK IT TO CHARLOTTE!"

In 2 years Tom Benson will have more fans and supporters in Charlotte than Jerry Richardson. His brand will be stronger!

KT is pissed! Cant really say i blame him though. Id be pissed if i just watched my teams next three years go up in smoke. And for the record king, bobcats were royally screwed. I almost feel sorry for you.

Let the butthurt flow, lol.

If anything, this may force a rebrand from Jordan.

He's really going to struggle in attendance now. Honestly Davis going to the bobcats would have energized the team and fan base. Not to mention the exposure nationally. I never wanted to admit this but I can now. Davis would have certainly done a lot for the bobcats brand.

Good luck with your role player, bobcats lol

Davis would have COMPLETELY changed the Bobcats franchise around and would have made them immediately a somewhat marketable and respectable team. Now look at them...same laughing stock, now even worse. That's karma for you though I guess.

"NEW OR-LEANS! NEW OR-LEANS!

WE TOOK YOUR TEAM! WE TOOK YOUR TEAM!"

Im happy the NBA is saving the Hornets in New Orleans MrTD.

So your happy that the NBA basically chose to save another team instead of yours? Hornets and Bobcats are.......well I should say "were" now lol......in the same boat.

Some fan you are! Enjoy another ten win season next year lol

Like I stated earlier, Davis would have done so much for the Bobcats team and brand from top to bottom. National exposure. Endorsements. Not to mention a bonafide centerpiece to build around. He would have made the bobcats a household name and very relevant. I would have never admitted this earlier, but I can now because it doesn't matter.

Honestly, If you are a fan of the bobcats rebrand, not getting Davis was probably the best thing to happen for us.

    • It is all confusing and layered. SB is the cash you get very soon within weeks or in simple terms, its what you get to sign the paper work. Players and agents can agree on contract but what to "wait" to sign......teams don't like that cause you can "Carlos Boozer" yourself. In order to get that ink dry, while keeping the contract the same, portion it as a bonus to "sign" and get the funds with ________ .   * But Ive seen worded contracts that split the SB or a 20% to a later date. The beans counters can fill in the details about why certain dates are better and save the team money.. Theres tricks to the trade and accounting is full of them.    Ugh another big layer, is SB can be used to manipulate cap and players. Ill try to give a example that makes enough sense. Believe it or not having a owner like Tepper is a cheat code for this. He has cash in hand, where as Mark Davis had problem making pay roll and had to move the team to Vegas....... Tepper can give you 100,000,000 SB right now and the team can spread out the cap hit. Another owner doesn't have or want to give the player 100,000,000 in cash, but offered the same guaranteed contract in roster bonuses fully guaranteed over the next few years........ Which one do you want??? Everyone wants the money now, not before another inflation waves hits in 2 years. So it does 'pay" to have a owner like tepper that's able to have real cash on hand, while it also works GREAT for cap help. Heres a good video, if you can stand coked up pat and mask look-a-like AJ    
    • I don't know. CMC is like others and may have lip serviced that line of " I had no plan or wanted to leave Carolina" I think he even said he bought a house too and wanted this to be home.   Here's what I heard- In a way Panthers org gave him a test and he didn't "fight" back. They approached CMC and told him they wanted to put him on IR since the "season" was over or out of playoff reach. CMC didn't fight it one lick and agreed. They secretly wanted him to kept playing or want to, but there was no kickback. I honestly don't know if its real or not, 5th hand information type deal doing on. Yes he had bruises and pains, but was able to play...... but went along with Panthers staff. Odd to be playing games with star players, but whatever....   Plus the staff doctors found out about his tendinitis and there was nothing to fix it. Even with him missing time, it was the best move to trade him before he got inflamed constantly.    Lastly, its mostly time a combo of stuff, Fitterererere did not sign him to be the highest paid RB. That was classic Marty "give me a" herniay doing. GMs have different values on roster spots and rumor was Fitterererer was one that didn't want to pay RBs. For all his faults, he's right about that......
