They couldn't get their other targets, so they now go down the list. Stephenson might not be the best person to join a younger locker room like the one that the Hornets have, though.

He would be a great fit. It would be a big blow to the pacers if they lose him.

Good. A lot of the Indy fans undervalue him.

Wow the East would become so much more deep and bottom heavy. This drops the Pacers below the Bulls and Raptors IMO

If they sign him it will either be an epic meltodown or a steal.

At this point were willing to take the risk. If he can keep his head on straight Him, MKG, and Walker along with Jefferson makes a very nice foursome.

about damn time they should have been in on this guy for a while. Jordan spends alot of time with the players on the team. with this guys skills and talent and DRIVE and his mental fortitude too he can really be something special especially with some like MJ to get into his ear as well. Bobcats made the move of the offseason last year getting Al Jefferson at the rate they did at this stage of his career I think this is a very similar steal if they can get them they can possibly go from... one of the worst teams in the league to 8 seed to 4/5 seed in 3 years which would really be impressive and with the Hornets rebrand it could really jump them off especially down here in the Carolinas.

Pacers are already below the Bulls, they'd still be better than the Raptors though

Hate to see it happen to the Pacers, the Hornets could definitely use him to fill out their roster.

What do Hornets fans think about Vonleh and his play in summer league so far?

Lance is a complete knucklehead, but the kid has a solid game. If he's able to keep his head on straight this could be big for the Hornets. They could be one of the best teams in the East.

Either way it will be entertaining!

It took me a second to realize it's the Charlotte Hornets. I was like, "why does New Orleans want another SG"?

Confusing stuff haha.

Would be an awesome fit for Charlotte.

Maybe the reason why they weren't interested initially was because he was asking for too much. Maybe he's lowering the bar a little bit now?

He only has himself to blame really. Smacking Lebron in the face and blowing in his ear... :lol:
