I sold all of my stuff a couple of yrs back.  None of the stuff fit anyway since it was all bought when I was in elementary and middle school.  I probably made more money from that stuff than I originally bought it for.

Let me preface this by saying that I was ten when I got a lot of this stuff... Now, I don't really have any clothes, but I have a a stuffed Hugo (cute, I know), a Hornets blanket, a stuffed hornets basketball, a vintage Hornets tool box (that in particular is worth quite a bit of money lol), and a few Hornets hats...

 

I also own a new pair of Jordan Retro 5 "Grapes", they match all my Hornets stuff lol.

 

I'm going to have to stock up next year.

I've got a hat signed by Anthony Mason. I waited in line at the old foot locker on Albermarle Rd. just before Independence and when my mother and I got to up to the front The guy who worked at foot locker said that they didn't have any hats and since I didn't bring anything for him to sign then we would have to buy a jersey or something. Before my mom could say ok Anthony reached down and pulled a hat out from under the table he was sitting at and signed it for me. I always remembered that and that hat has been sitting in a box in the attic at my parents house since. He got a bad guy reputation (mainly in NY) but that little gesture had me hooked as a Hornets fan. I was probably like 11 or something then.

Got my old Anthony Mason jersey, and the old the old warmup pants boxed up somewhere at my parents crib.  My uncle was a season ticket holder, and would always carry me to the games.  I remember being a skinny, short 8 or 9 year old kid rocking that Mason jersey to every game.  Might go home and try to find that jersey.  Can't fit it now though lol

    • The good news is that we are pretty uniquely well established to address all of our needs this season. We have $14m real cap space, and something like $40m in trade deadline cap space. Not sure exactly how that works out. But, we have the room to absorb any bad contracts. With recent rule changes regarding retention, that went into effect this season, we now have a huge advantage in the trade market.  On top of that, while we do have obvious needs, we also have a glut of talent in certain areas that we struggle to find ice time for. We are over-stocked on scrappy talented lil-guys, strong defensively sound 3rd liners and shutdown left shot dmen. Whether it's a package or separate deals, idk. But, one of each from Stank/Blake/Nads, Erob/Carrier/KK/Jank, and Walker/Nystrom; throw in some 1st round picks (and frankly any other prospects they want) and we should be able to come out with a 1b to pair with Bussi and either a 2c with size or a 2c and size.   TL/DR We got the money, you got the stuff?
    • I don’t  think 6’4 was ever considered small or undersized. Baby hands tho, yes that was his thing That’s an interesting idea, like an optical illusion? Sounds like you have personal experience with this! 
    • in the 25' draft the Carolina Panthers had hired Brandt Tillis someone who actually understood how to build a successful team & build through the draft .  this team was yes mismanaged for years prior to Brandt Tillis joining the team in 25' & rarely done anything right in the draft outside occaionaly getting lucky on an UDFA such as Jalen Coker who's dad coincidentally happened to be a huge Carolina Panthers fan, hint hint  ...just saying
