Hornets

I'm curios as to when's the soonest they can become the hornets. Could they change over this off season since the name is already owned by the league and still has merchandise and so forth.

Seems they could fast track the deal and let the bobcats become the hornets the upcoming year

I think they will do it in the 2014 offseason. I have no evidence, but I think that makes the most sense. Unless MJ is tired of the attendance and merch sales and hopes/thinks that a rebrand will bring more $ next year. However, as far as a brand goes, I think it would be best to wait until we have a competitive team (2014-15 season) before rebranding. You don't want even a single season of crappiness to be stuck with a brand.

That's a good point. Didnt think about that.

I can't wait until when 20 years from now people start wearing retro bobcats gear and some douche starts a movement to COME BACK CATS

Difference between the Bobcats and the Hornets is the Hornets actually have history where as the Bobcats are just meh...

I see what you're saying though even if I want the Hornets back in Charlotte

    • What you are saying isn't always true and I'll give you several examples to demonstrate this. 1) The best player on the board at the end of in round 1 by all consensus is RB (top 15 player in draft who slips b/c of the devaluation of the RB position). Your team is in desperate need of a LT because the current one is getting your QB killed. You already have a serviceable RB in place. The LT has a 2nd round grade and you have the first pick on day 2 of the draft Who do you choose? 2) Your run defense was abysmal the previous season. A DT in round 2 does not provide much in terms of pass rush, but most reports have him rated as the best pure run stuffing DT in the draft. The two highest rated players on your board at the time are a TE and tweener at OLB/DE who slipped into round 2 after a run on WR's. Who do you choose? 3) Your pass rush rush is solid across the board. You even have guy coming off of the bench to provide production. Your secondary in below average. No Safety on the roster is a difference maker and as a unit the squad doesn't have an INT. The highest rated player on the board is a DE. The 5th highest rated player on the board is a an intelligent ball hawking Safety. Which player would make the team immediately better?  1) I think the BPA logic applies when your team is solid across the board and you can afford to draft for depth 2) I think it also applies when your team stinks and any solid player will be an immediate upgrade over what you already have. I agree that you should NEVER reach for a player when you are need at a position like we did for Bryce Young. But I also think if there's is a player on the board that will fill a glaring weakness you need to take him even if a player with a higher over all ranking is available at another position (which isn't a need)  
    • Bryce Young excels at dividing Panthers fans. That seems to be what he's best at.
