About Hornets Sports & Entertainment

They showed highlights of this team in Serbia, back in the day, because of Vlade. This is my first team, these are my guys and the reason why I got interested in the NBA. Muggsy, Curry, Rice, Mase, Divac, my mount Rushmore +1.

Glen Rice is my basketball deity ♥️41!

R.I.P Mason..this was the squad that I fell in love with when I watched Hornets basketball.

Then Wesley and Phills came in and I loved it even more.

What about that team that had Mashburn and Davis that lost to the big three in Milwaukee of Cassel, Big Dog and Allen. That was a good team too.

Charlotte hornets had the best looking court in the NBA

Hornets Hardball! That shorter 3-point line was absolute child's play for Glen Rice.

The Hornets from '94-'02 had a lot of fun exciting teams to watch. '94-'95 ZO-LJ, '95-'96 Rice-LJ, '96-'98 Divac-Rice-Mason, '98-'00 Jones-Phills-Wesely-Mase, After '02 it has never been as fun to watch Hornets. They never got back the exciting star power they had from the mid 90's to the early '00s.

Rip Anthony Mason and Kobe. Rip Bobby Phills who started playing for Charlotte the year after this.

That 1998 Playoff series versus Atlanta was electric! Unfortunately the Chicago Bulls were waiting in the next round!

Im a Bulls fan but this Charlotte team in the mid/late 90s made a fan. They never got the respect they deserved and I loved watching this team into the early 2000s.

[TheSands]

Vlade always makes teams better the moment he gets there

[rajaeenabawi]

Baron, Jamal, David, Elden, P.J., Jamaal, Lynch, Augmon, Traylor, that was the team.good times

I'm a heat fan since 88 ( after heat I loved hornets)....I was so happy seeing G-Money lead a squad and be the superstar he was. Your welcome Charlotte. Sincerely pat riley. Lol
