Today’s a big day for basketball fans as the NBA season kicks off, but an even bigger one if you’re a Charlotte Hornets fan. Not only has your team returned with their original colors intact, but owner Michael Jordan – you might have heard of him – decided to take over the team’s twitter. His exploits were highlighted by showcasing a 11 total “Hornets” Air Jordan PEs but there was a lot more going on behind the scenes as well. Between calling out Jordan Brand athlete Keegan Bradley and shaking his head at he state of the Hornets’ locker room (but praising Al Jefferson’s Air Jordan 29s) we don’t know which part was our favorite. Oh, yea – the Air Jordan PEs were. Check out more of Mike’s twitter exploits after the break and stay tuned to see if any of those gorgeous Charlotte Hornet colorways ever end up releasing atop a pair of Air Jordan retros.
I’M BACK! …just kidding LOL. Trying out social media for the first time and sharing my day with you. Ready? #MJTakeover
