Quotes from Hornets' forums-"the Hornets made a total of 4 shots outside the paint today according the ESPN shot chart"

[Peter Effin' Parker]

In the early and mid 90s you’d see lots of people wearing Hornets gear here in The Netherlands. Even more so than Bulls gear. Not NBA fans, but it was considered cool for its thoroughly 90s aesthetic.
Meanwhile, all I had was one Jazz t-shirt that didn’t fit quite right, because my friend that went to the US got me a small instead of a medium, and a hat that was a bit too big. Had to ask for Charles Barkley and Patrick Ewing posters for christmas (or rather Sinterklaas) because other then Bulls or Hornets stuff nothing else was available.

It's because in the mid-90's the Hornets were the ****. Larry Johnson, young Alonzo Mourning, Kendall Gill, Muggsy Mother****ing Bougues all wrapped up in that beautiful teal that was like invented in the 90's. I loved them back then. Now? Snoozeville.
