The results for our greatest Charlotte Hornets player fan-voting are here
We’re here at the Grand Finale. Number 1 and Number 2 going at it for all the marbles. Will things go as planned?
1. Kemba Walker vs 2. Larry Johnson (83% – 17%)
Any Charlotte Hornets fan worth their salt knew this was going to be the final outcome. I must say that I am proud of Buzz City for getting it right and yes, this is the right outcome.
The Hornets are still a young franchise and while they might not have the Hall of Fame players like some of the more established organizations out there, they have their own brand of special players.
Whether it’s lovable goofballs like Larry Johnson, strong and determined little guys like Muggsy Bogues, or do-it-all guys who lay it all out on the court like Gerald Wallace or Kemba Walker, Charlotte has had their own rag-tag group of guys who might not be household names but represented the city of Charlotte with class, grace, tenacity, and oftentimes, charm.
Sure, we all knew who it was going to be after all was said and done, but getting a formal ranking doesn’t necessarily hurt, especially when you are talking about some of the more esoteric names in Charlotte basketball history.
In ten year’s time, who knows what this type of bracket will look like? Sure, some of the same names will be there, but new ones will surely take a few of their places. Perhaps even some of the current guys could be up there.
This was a fun exercise and if any of the fans who voted in our polls on Twitter are reading this, we’d like to thank you for your input. Without you, this piece, and possibly this entire site, could not exist.
We hope you continue to come here for all things Charlotte Hornets and if the NBA season truly is over, then we’ve got you covered for all the news and in-depth coverage you crave. Until next time, Buzz City.
