How Michael Jordan Failed the Charlotte Hornets 

Do warriors or magic

The John Wall/Bradley Beal era in Washington, the Knicks reconstruction from a joke franchise to a EC contender, post-MJ Bulls or the Shaq-PH years in Orlando

Bulls. Nobody went from terrible to great to terrible as fast

the memphis/vancuver grizzlies

​@@bigguy8435 Utter the name, Ernie Grunfeld, in Washington and you will get death stares.

Facts

Yep they should bring it back tbh

Bobcat colors was fire to me 😂

Yeah when I was a kid playing old b ball games I always picked their court cause it looked cool

especially there starter jackets

So what you saying is college ball don't translate to the nba ❓ 🥶🥶🥶🥶

@@user-sb8bn4vq8enot necessarily. A lot to guys who get drafted solely of college stats benefited from playing on bad teams and being the entire offense, which makes them look better than bench players on stacked teams

@@user-sb8bn4vq8e I personally think teams should go for the guys that have shown their game can translate to the nba level. Shooting %, aggressiveness and ability to drive to the rim, athleticism, vision, playmaking etc. Look at Ja morant for example, he went to a smaller school but was able to showcase those skills and it translated better than Kyle Guy who was on the Virginia team that won the chip that year. They gotta recognize who’s a college system player and who’s an nba talent

​​@@user-sb8bn4vq8eConsidering the fact that college tactics haven't evolved past the eighties and nineties, according to guys like JJ Reddick, then yes, the same kind of guys who succeed in college may not be the type of players who succeed professionally, and vice versa. You may have a player who isn't as good in college because he thrives in more fast-paced space and pace sets, and is stuck with a coach who runs a half-court offense, and thus gets little playing time. If he gets a shot with an NBA roster, he can showcase his abilities in a faster paced game.

@@donnyg9993but you said they pick winners how are they winners on bad teams 😂

I never knew Avril Lavigne had such a deep speaking voice.

I can't wtaxh this whole video though. I want to, but I would have to find time lol.

Dude is terrible 😂😂😂

Ahhhh, someone found out about my music taste 😈

Brandon Miller is legit and Ball is a really good player. Build around those two and they got something for the future for sure. Funny thing is the GM also left so yeah the Hornets are in a NEW era starting now!

@@Alvini_Linguine The best ability is availability. And LaMelo is never available. I'm not saying trade him but I'd damn sure dangle him out there and see what teams would throw at me. If it isn't an OKC gold mine of 1st round picks and young controllable players then he's not moving. But B Mill I'd most certainly build around. I'd resign Miles Bridges and hire new training staff to help keep the guys healthy. They've missed Mark Williams bad this year

@@jaycubmitchell8808 LaMelo has shown he can play a full season and not have constant injury issues before, way too soon to right him off especially since he's the most valuable player we got to winning in the future.

@@InsiteVFXyou gotta admit it doesn’t look good though. His brother is chronically injured and so is he. He’s missed more games than he’s played by a pretty wide number. Sometimes players can get through that but usually if you are constantly injured when you are young it doesn’t get better, it unfortunately gets worse

@@Romanus- His brother and him are two different people. Lonzo has degenerative injuries, LaMelo has ankle tweaks from rushing his injury recovery constantly. These ankle issues started from 3 ankle injuries in a row where ppl fell on his ankle and rolled it twice... it's not the same at all, he was completely fine before that year with just 1 wrist injury that put him out like 15 games or so in his rookie year. Ppl that sit there and make the correlation of "oH weLL hIS brOTHEr iS inJURy PwoneE?!" are idiots im sorry. They dont watch the Hornets or LaMelo or know the slightest thing about whats going on. If he had genuine degenerative bone injuries, than that would be harder to come back from, but he doesn't have that.

“Hit the lottery in the draft” is funny considering his gambling habits 😭. Dude was gambling for sure with these draft picks 😭

Hey Joseph Matthes, this is going to be long-winded, but truth and fact.I don't know how you came to that conclusion on the Bulls owner, Jerry Riesdorf. Yeah, I admit they really underpaid and screwed up and over Scootie as far as his paper was concerned But the man always maintained and kept the players on the Bulls roster satisfied enough to stay with them and had enough to entice players to come there when players left enough to where they accomplished those two 3peat runs. The majority of those players were brought in by the GM Jerry Krause RIP. You know that guy that all Bulls fans hate and gives him no credit and even less respect. The only player that was brought to the team that I don't believe was his idea, but he supported the move was Rodman. And no, it wasn't all due to MJ. He was the main man and leader of the team and franchise, but he was playing with players that the GM selected to play with him, and all knew their rolls and played it well. As far as the drafting of players, he drafted well, early on when they lost enough games to have them. He orchestrated that draft day trade with Seattle thar brought in Scootie. He drafted Stacy King and BJ Armstrong. Othe than MJ who was there one year prior to Krause getting there, He assembled the starting 4 and the cast of support players on the bench. He made the decision to move on from the previous coach, Doug Collins, a move MJ didn't like and brought in Phil Jackson and did all that setting up to that setting up what woul become the start of a dynasty. He was the one that orchestrated the plan and deal that brought in Kukoc, which was the 1st step in starting the 2nd 3peat run. After that, it was all about getting the best available free agents to the team because they started winning, which reduced their draft selection greatly. And through it all, Jerry Riesdorf, the owner, paid them enough of a salary that was good enough for them to come there and stay there until the run ended. So Bruh, for you to accuse the man the way you did, I don't see how you can justify what you said about him. Unless you are part of the Bulls fan base that still holds them responsible for breaking up the team and ending the dynasty. The truth of that is that it was already over and run its course because they were old and past their prime playing careers. They were still going to be competitive, but after the last championship. They were done, and management made that franchise decision to get younger and start over. All championship teams have to go through that phase at some point. It's how it is for all team franchises, no matter the sport. It is what it is. You have to reload to keep shooting your shot. And hope that the future decisions as far as maintaining and building the team work out. But they will never be as good as the one that time has passed by , and they weren't. They had an excellent starting point when they drafted Jason Williams and Derek Rose, but the unfortunate risk of injuries is a gamble all teams have to consider and deal with. And the Bulls on their reload were hit, and they're dealing with it to this day. And last but definitely not least. Jerry Krause, the man who orchestrated that dynasty the guy/GM Bulls nation hates. Well, he died. So do ya'll see how important he was to the organization now.

@@johnharris3455bro no one’s reading this

Now that is unfortunate 😭😂

Thank you 🙏. I’m glad you all are enjoying them also 🤝

I always thought of it as a codependent relationship. The players and staff need the organization as well as the organization needs the staff and the players. It's rare to see that type of cohesion nowadays in the NBA.

@manzac112 Very true. It feels like front office is more often than not acting against the best wishes of their players. Or some players with enough sway, use that to influence or straight up walk into the boardroom to make decisions. Those decisions are often made for selfish reasons.

Larry Bird and Jerry West.

@@inhop2443those are the two exceptions. Pretty much every other nba legend has been a terrible GM

Jordan wasn't the coach or GM.

God him and boogie woulda been such a problem

Thank you! 🙏 Was happening to come through reading the comments and saw this. Glad my channel got you back in the game 😁

Thank you 🙏💪

One video at a time. We’ll get there 😤😈

Why thank you. Learned the art of using copyrighted music in my videos 😤

Couldn't tell you. But one video at a time!

Great documentary🔥 Love this type of long form content

I’m sorry, but the people wanted this 🥲

Hornets haven't won a playoff series since 2002...haven't ever been in the conference finals..longest streak in the nba and won 3 playoff games since coming back in 04....they took 14 years to win a playoff game...insane

Thank you 🙏. Glad y’all enjoy my rambling and over explaining. And gotcha on that other one 😭😭😭

lost his whole leg on a dribble pick-up😂

It killed me to see how many times they got moved BACK in the draft. They could’ve drafted AD easily but for some reason the Hornets got the string of luck after trading CP3 like if it wasn’t the Bobcats drowning for almost a decade 😭

​@@Alvini_Linguine And, what made it worse was the Lakers trade that they had was actually a better offer that would have benefited the Hornets and they still could have gotten Anthony Davis.

It would have eventually asked to trade it no way he turns down the opportunity to team with LeBron ​@@Alvini_Linguine

I wonder how that happened 🫣

I legit explained the fact he wasn’t a NBA athlete was his biggest red flag and didn’t have the skills to be what he was in a different NBA environment. Some skills translate, some don’t. Some people can’t dominate college like they did in HS and some people can’t dominate the NBA like they could in college.

I think there is a chance in today’s NBA that he might’ve been able to do something because of the fact that the NBA is way less physical and way more offensive oriented so he could’ve maybe gotten away with his lack of defense and athletic ability, but who knows Because he still couldn’t shoot, even though he should’ve been able to do at least that

Hehehehehe. Would be a fun one for sure 😈

I think that might be the one in April. Because everyone has been begging for that one 😭

Travel another state down south and you got it.

@@Alvini_Linguine the Sip okay yeah I was close. I knew the region lol

@@JoshuaKimbrough No, Alabama 😭. But close enough lol

Tmdwu

Yeah, it's from the Boondocks Soundtrack "Thank you for not Snitching"

"You're playing like THUGS" LMAOOOOOOOOO!

As a kings fan nah that’s not the move. Charlotte has a good amount of basketball history and I don’t think that’s the move. At this point I think there’s enough history with almost all these teams to argue relocation as a whole is not viable.

Slugs > Thugs 😤

😂😂😂

I know right

Either way you put it, he's a champion in this game called life despite the limitations he was born with. Made Millions in the league, a college legend, and can say he can retire at a very young age. Sometimes in life it is all about being in the right situation. He was NOT in the right one.

The Orange was LOUD but man I would rock a Bobcats Jersey rn.

Wallace was absolutely a bench warmer in Sacramento. Although that was hardly his fault as the team was pretty deep from 02-04. Good he got to breakout elsewhere.
