Jordan possibly selling his stake of the Hornets

[BK The Great]

had a chance at WHAT lmao a play in game? they did that

lamelo couldn't even walk half the year and the valuation of the club still went up

It wasn't as bad when Lamelo was a rookie, the following year he got hurt and this year he got hurt again. Actually it was 3 years in a row he got hurt. He might be like Lonzo if he doesn't get stronger. His buzz was thru the roof. But he's injury prone and probably won't live up to the hype if he doesn't stay healthy. The last thing he needs is to get hurt in the 23-24 season.

The 1 black owner in the nba and he’s choosing to sell

It's his right to sell if he no longer wants to deal with the responsibility of handling a team but he should do what Bob Johnson did and make sure it's sold to a black buyer. The NBA should help make sure that happens.

Not exactly what the Coli wants to hear.

and Lasry just sold his stake to Haslam. You don't think he realizes he might get more for his stake in a couple of years? Maybe the ones selling don't have the interest in waiting til then.

I don’t know Lasry’s situation. Maybe he had a personal fall out with co-owner Wes Edens to the point where they can’t work together anymore. All I know is that the owners who sold in the last few years would’ve had a more valuable asset if they held.

Exactly look how long it too the golden state warriors to be successful...

Bob Johnson gave him a sweetheart deal because he was bleeding money. He wanted more but couldn't get anyone that soon to buy in.

Michael Jordan Bails Out a Billionaire

The nation’s first African-American billionaire, Robert Johnson, is enduring a cash crush so severe, reports Peter Lauria, that he had to hock his NBA franchise to Michael Jordan for a song.

I don't want to see Jordan sell the team to white people.

Make sure to let all the black billionaires you know that he's selling.

Damn I hope he changes his mind

Hornets should be part of the Jordan family for generations and Charlotte is only growing as a city

I was rooting for this LaMelo era fukked with the whole rebrand

Lasry tripled his investment and didn’t want to continue spending money into the luxury tax.

WHAT IS HE GONNA BUY
WITH MORE MONEY
THAT HE CANT BUY NOW?

An NFL Team

Sell the squad and the new owners need to SERIOUSLY consider moving the team to Raleigh...

They will have waaayyyy more of a natural basketball base in The R, logistics won't be crazy expensive as if you were moving outta state, etc. Just rebrand em as the "Carolina Hornets"...

Anybody buying this dumpster fire should seriously look at relocating to the hotbed of basketball in NC...

Move to a smaller city, less wealthy city because @murksiderock wants to see them, brehs.

 

[#1 pick]

shyt pisses me off. MJ is the GOAT (arguably in ALL of sports) and he’s barely a billionaire. Meanwhile, the owner of the Suns was a walk on at Michigan St in the late 90s-early 2000s, got put on by his daddy, and now he’s a billionaire and probably has a higher net worth than the GOAT.

He's white. That shouldn't surprise you

@murksiderock could easily go to Charlotte and watch em if they were worth the entertainment. I can give you a dozen events in Charlotte right now off the top of my head that I'd rather do than a Hornets game, and most Charlotteans would agree...

Move to a smaller city because this smaller city is an actual basketball city, Charlotte isn't. They'd have more support here and I'm almost positive they'd make more money. The population base isn't that much smaller and the Hornets in Raleigh are also pulling I'm traffic from neighboring regions like The Triad, Virginia, Fayetteville, the NC coast...

This was a funny post though and yes if they here I'd go see them because there isn't a dozen events I'd rather do here

It doesn’t surprise me. It just reminds me of what Chris Rock said about his neighborhood in NJ on one of his specials. There’s him (one of the best comedians), there’s Jay-Z (one of the greatest rappers), there’s Mary J Blige (one of the most successful R&B singers), and Eddie Murphy (one of the greatest comedians). Said they’re the only 4 black households in that neighborhood. His neighbor is a dentist. Not the GOAT dentist, just a white dentist.

Yeah and the Warriors previous owner sold them in 2010 for $450M. Now the team is worth $6-7 billion. Ooof.
