July 18th the NBA Board of Governors is going to officially vote on the name change to the Hornets.  Right around the corner!  8 days!!!

 

After that maybe we will start to see more information come out about color schemes, etc.

 

It has been a fun and eventful offseason so far.  Name change, Big Al, Cody, etc.

 

Can't wait for next season and beyond.  How many times have Buzzcats fans been able to say that?

Sweet.

Is there any chance that they vote it down?

 

Probably 0%.

 

IIRC, they sent out a presser for an open house on July 18th that coincides with an all-day celebration at the Epicentre, in which they specifically say for the "big announcement."

 

Some over at Bobcatsplanet are speculating that they may even reveal the new logo/colors to get a jumpstart on merchandise to make up for what they'll lose on the Bobcats merch this coming year.

I was actually thinking about posting a thread on when they will start at least taking pre-orders for merchandise. That would be awesome if its that soon. I live in AZ so I can't buy ST, but I'll buy the poo out of some gear. I plan on going to the Panthers/ Cards game and the Buzzcats/ Suns games this year. I need something to wear. That will be my first and (if the vote goes well) only Bobcats game.

      Thielen was a "dawg" like Dan Morgan likes to say. And they replaced him with puppies.  The analytics are probably saying this is more targets for younger receivers they are hoping to develop, specifically the first round pick from 2025. The eye test is going to show a very inexperienced group of WRs that are going to have some serious growing pains, for a 3rd year QB who has not yet proven to be the guy going forward.  It's crazy how in the literal first game of his NFL career, Cam Newton showed everyone he was a star QB and there was never any doubt about that. It almost didn't even matter who was around him, although he definitely had a serious lack of talent at WR for most of his career. Bryce is going into his third season and there is still a ton of doubt, and who is around him is seen as crucial for him to have success. I don't like it.

      Everyone says AT was old and slow but the one thing he could do consistently was get separation. That takes skill and it's been a huge issue in our WR for years. And while Moore may be a great locker room guy and our WR coach may be a 12 year vet, he's not playing in the game. Vets like AT do what they do because they can see things others don't and exploit it. The DB interview I mentioned before was with Stephon Gilmore after his DPOY season. He was pulling the younger DBs aside showing them things you wouldn't even think you'd be able to tell from the way the receiver was standing.  Seeing what a DB or LB is biting on in game that can give you that half step advantage is huge and we don't have that experience in our WR group right now and I think it could end up hurting us. None of our receivers have lined up against NFL corners successfully on a regular basis. Having someone that can walk over and give you a tip to get a half yard separation can be a difference maker.

      We only fielded about 4 NFL calibre players on that unit last year.
