BBM Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 someone tell those knicks players that switching their number isnt going to chantge how bad their team is going to be Yeah they're getting the wrong part of the jersey changed; Knicks management should realize the names on the back have to go, not the numbers.Of course these are the same people who are planning to fire Larry Brown and have *gulp* Isaiah coach the team...

SouthSidePride Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 I agree with the names on the back premise, but isn't that league mandated? HereCometheHawks.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wings In Stripes Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 i think you mis-understood him. He meant the players have to go.But no names would like nice, although the nba is all about player recognition and i doubt they would ever allow that.

J23P Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 any idea why amare is changing his # to 1? and where did you hear this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DG_ThenNowForever Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 any idea why amare is changing his # to 1? and where did you hear this? It was on espn.com a few days/weeks ago. I think it has something to do with an inflated ego.Also, did Kobe's promised explanation of why he was switching ever come out? I've been waiting anxiously. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's to get a fresh start after an injury in a new season with a new number.

You know, why would Kobe do it now if Jordan XXII is coming out next year? Why not wait until 07-08?As for a tangible explanation, he actually used to wear 24 in HS. I don't think he ever said why the switch back now. Go Astros!Go Texans!Go Rockets!Go Javelinas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
