RUDEBOY_Participanti really dont Hate a players numbers, becuz alot of players wear those numbers for special personal reasons..
But i do have a gripe with Lebron’s decisions in picking numbers..
Lebron was the most celebrated high schooler ever..And he chosed the number of the most celebrated basketball player ever..Nike wanted to pay him not to wear the number 23..They wanted him to pick a number he’ll be known for…
Then he changed his number to 6..The same number 2 Legendary players ( Dr. J & Bill Russell) wore …When you talk about Jordan,Russell and Erving you’re talking about the Mount Rushmore of Basketball.

I May Be WrongParticipantI know he can’t wear the retired #15 or even #22 from his Oak Hill days like he used to but the #7 just doesn’t look right IMO. I can’t explain it but I’d think the number #21 for Melo would be legit

MagikKnickParticipantI wouldnt say i HATE any players numbers, but I thing some players could use better #s
Like Anthony Randolph, how cool would it be if he wore 15? Then he could be called “AR15” which is a versatile weapon…just like him…or just like what he could be..

Lotto StudParticipant"how u gonna hate on a dude for a picking a number he wants to wear???"
SIMPLE!!!! Same way you hate how a player looks wit long socks, headbands, hair, tattoo’s etc.
C’MON SON!!!! Don’t act like the jersey thing is not an issue, because if so they would not be sold.

WizardofOzParticipantI really don’t care what a jersey # a player wears and don’t pay attention to it.
And RUDEBOY, about LeBron’s jersey number. One of LeBron’s main critics, Skip Bayless, says that LeBron wore #23 because he thought he could be better than Jordan. I completely disagree. Skip is just trying to create conspiracy theories that aren’t true like he always does. I don’t have a problem with LeBron wearing #23 because I think he was just honoring Michael Jordan. He says he was his idol. And lets not act like he was the only person that wore #23. Many players wore #23. Players like Jason Richardson, Derrick Rose, Eric Gordon, Lou Williams, Quentin Richardson, Marcus Camby, Darius Miles, and many more have worn #23, and they haven’t been criticized for it.

IndianaBasketballParticipantSkip Bayless can be an idiot. When you’re a kid, you typically want to wear the number of your favorite player because you admire them… Not want to be better than them. I wanted to wear #31 (Reggie Miller), #23 (MJ), #1 (Penny and T-Mac) and #3 (A.I.)… I do think LeBron should’ve chosen a different number once he entered the NBA though. Just so he could have his own thing. And it was disturbing when he said the NBA should retire #23 out of respect for MJ, but then turned around and said he was switching to #6 lol.

TripBzParticipantAnt Randolph does wear number 15, and AR15 is a good nickname. Ive heard someone call him that before. From this wolves bleacher report writer.
"This offseason, Randolph has been rumored to have gained 10-20 pounds of added weight in order to play center next season. If this is the case, then Rubio has found his favorite offensive weapon in AR15."

21_21_42Participant@MagikKnick AR15 has the #15 already. I think he had the same idea you have…. everyone on the team calls him AR15 more then Anthony Randolph.

M-DYMESParticipantQuestion…
Do you have specific numbers or only when a specific player wears that number?
What makes you hate #6 for Lance but not for LeBron?

Lotto StudParticipantIf I recall right because it has been so long ago Lance said "It’s a new me" or something of that nature
See this face——-> O_o he would have not chose #6 if LeBron did not….only a select few players wore that # before LeBron

MagikKnickParticipantYes, M-DYMES doesnt it also bother you that for a man of Baron Davis’ size, he should of chose a smaller number in attempt to look slimmer in the wine & gold robes of which the Cavaliers don?
I mean, What a fashion faux pais, he might as well be wearing white after labor day…

Now everytime I see someone wearing that number, I feel like They wear it because Brian Cook is their favorite player so I automatically assume thyre a soft jump shooting big who rebounds like a pg.
