Hopefully this experience (not playing in Boston,Dallas trading him half a season after signing) will humble Grant...he has an EGO that his Play can't back up

Sometimes it isn’t the right fit…sometimes a fresh restart helps a player. PJ seems to be a great guy and teammate. If he can stay motivated and give effort every game instead of once every 5th game he can be a good producer. Good luck.

"In the 90s/00s, Charlotte led the league in attendance. They were there cheering 'Let's Go Hornets', not the other team... playing for Boston, coming home, them screaming 'Let's Go Celtics/Mavericks'... it didn't piss me off at the time, playing for those teams, but it pisses me off now because I know what we can do."
"We haven't necessarily put the product out there yet, but I know that we're gonna do it for this city, this team, and I'm excited for these fans to really understand that the Hornets are gonna be back here really soon."

Apart from that sweet draft pick

I liked and vouched for PJs value despite their weird vitriolic hatred toward Grant and our FO but they are really setting themselves up for extreme disappointment
