I want something unique, maybe 90's style. But I know its gonna be minimalist and modern, probably even SLEEVES.

OMG can you imagine if we're the first team to roll out with sleeves as their regular uniforms? Please, please no. Save us MJ.

I almost guarantee SLEEVES will be part of the package tomorrow. As bad as it would look on Al and Cody, they would be pretty tight on Kemba and MKG.

Sleeves will be apart of every teams' jersey package within the next year or two.

MKG needs to work on the shoulders and arms first.

I wish we would pay tribute to the early years of our owner and have an alternate like these. One of my favorite all time jerseys. A home alternate with a teal cursive Charlotte and a purple outline.

Yeah, Zeller actually has pretty muscular arms. Too bad his core is only about as strong as my mothers.

We'll have a sleeved alternate jersey for sure, I highly doubt it'll be our regular jersey.

i have no problems what so ever with sleeves. done, i said it. im 30 years old and im never going to buy an nba singlet again for the rest of my life. a sweet looking sleeved hornets jersey could have me interested.
i actually think the gs jerseys looked good when they rolled out. im in the minority but from a marketing standpoint its a solid move.
in 10 years the singlets could look like the short shorts from the 80's. time will tell if the trend will catch but the hate on the sleeves is unwarranted.

yeah pretty much the worst case scenario would be shirseys. Isn't the league making them mandatory or some **** though evenutally for ad space? hope they didnt force shirseys on us

I hope they go with what they said and mix the Hornets colors with the Bobcats colors. I want teal and orange and silver and black and purple and carolina blue

Pinstripes, purple roadies, no Charlotte on either jersey.


what a bizarre story about alexander julian and the hornets front office...

Sounded like he desperately wanted to be apart of it, but we wanted nothing to do with him. Oh well.
