The Charlotte Hornets finally got the chance to properly introduce Charles Lee as their head coach after being hired about seven weeks ago.

Lee was a little busy winning an NBA championship with the Boston Celtics, so he gets a pass since he'll attempt to breed a winning culture in a different city. Lee had plenty of positive things to say about the opportunity with the Hornets after spending 10 years as an assistant coach with the Atlanta Hawks, Milwaukee Bucks and Boston Celtics.
