Just curious to know why the Hornets moved from Charlotte to New Orleans?

Thanks in advance.

It basically occurred because of a dispute because the owners claimed (correctly) that the Cha Colloseum didn't raise enough revenue because it only had a few lux suites. Cha refused to build a new arena for Shinn so he moved the team to NO, which offered a better arena with many more lux suites.

It was a cumulation of bad blood between the city and the team owners.

Shinn appears to be on the fast track to winning the "Young Donald Sterling" Award
