We should be a big player in free agency with Gordons massive expiring.

That probably won't happen for a while. Him and management didn't exactly leave on great terms.

I think that Crash will get his jersey retired as soon as he retires.

Parting terms do not eradicate his great service to Charlotte basketball.

Great news on every front!

Bonnell tweeted that the colors will be teal and purple! Holy hell!

Not sure what is next.. Perhaps the sky is blue?

Mike Malone was never given a fair chance in Sacramento, and Ranadive will soon come to regret that, when he's on top of the WC inevitably contending somewhere

Interesting that white is not mentioned anywhere, both in the leak a month ago and now this. I wonder if this means teal will be the home color and purple/black the away color, like the Lakers, with white alternates.

Either way these colors are sick and way better than what we have now. Sorry Bob Johnson

I really hope we get our history back.

Great no brainer call on the colours.
