Laieke Abebe wrote on the Charlotte Hornets’ recent name change to their home. Time Warner Cable Arena will now be known as Spectrum Center. All remnants of Time Warner Cable arena will be replaced when the home opener happens on October 29th. The changing of the name reflects a changing of the times. We are now all witnesses to the transition started by the Bring Back the Buzz Crowd.
The name and jerseys are not the only things that have been replaced. Most notably, the shift began with the trading of Gerald Henderson for Nicolas Batum last year.
