dabadestalbo69 Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 That Sixers jersey is the retro from last year. I have a feeling that the new jerseys will be very nice yet plain but thats how i like em. Also i know some of guys already know but the Bobcats are getting new jerseys next year. I think Wizards might be getting rid of the gold jerseys.

Dnice Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Arts, I think Griffin could change if Camby left. I remember Childress and Josh Smith were 22 and 42 on their rookie shoots. Smith changed due to Uncle Kevin Willis on the roster, but I still don't know why Childress dropped 22 for 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swilson160 Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 RonRon....weird number choice.Maybe a Rodman tribute, since Rodman was 73 with the Lakers? Didn't Artest wear 91 at one point in Dennis' honor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Mexico Posted July 8, 2009 Author Share Posted July 8, 2009 Trevor Ariza, likely a numberless jersey You used to hold meTell me that I was the bestAnything in this world I wantI could possesAll that made me wantWas all that I can getIn order to surviveGotta learn to live with regrets-President Carter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Trevor Ariza, likely a numberless jerseyI can't see why he's not wearing #3. The number isn't in use by anyone on the active roster, nor is it retired by the Rockets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhans203 Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 RonRon....weird number choice.have his number choices ever been ordinary?From what I've gathered here is the order to RonRon's Numerical Madness.15--> Chose to wear while at St. John's in honor of his father. He wore the jersey with Chicago and Indiana twice.23--> Switched to 23 while with Indiana in honor of Michael Jordan91--> Switched to 91 while with Indiana in honor of Dennis Rodman, he switched back to 15 after coming back from the brawl until he was traded to Sacramento.93--> From my recollection his reasoning was that he thought the number looked cool on the Sacramento jerseys.96--> Again I believe his reasoning was same as picking 93.37--> Honoring Michael Jackson by the number of weeks Thriller was #1.RonRon also mentioned in his Press Conference that he wanted to honor his favorite Chicago Bulls by wearing their numbers (Michael Jordan, 23; Dennis Rodman, 91; Scottie Pippen, 33; Toni Kukoc, 7 and B.J. Armstrong, 10) by the league changed the rule on how often a player can change his number. I believe it's now 4 or 5 years unless they move to another team? Anywho...I just realized I know too much about a player I never really liked. Eh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anywho...I just realized I know too much about a player I never really liked. Eh.He chose 96 with the Rockets because there are 96 units in the six buildings of the Queensbridge projects (where he grew up).I can't see why he's not wearing #3. The number isn't in use by anyone on the active roster, nor is it retired by the Rockets.Here's Ariza covering up the number again, I think he chose #1 and they are just waiting for McGrady to get traded.

TFoA Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Artest wearing 93 was also a tribute to Queensbridge:Ron moved from 91 after being traded to the Kings, choosing 93, which was a tribute to his roots in Queensbridge, with the 9 apparently looking like a Q and the 3 looking like a B. Go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshey Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Artest wearing 93 was also a tribute to Queensbridge:Ron moved from 91 after being traded to the Kings, choosing 93, which was a tribute to his roots in Queensbridge, with the 9 apparently looking like a Q and the 3 looking like a B. Go figure.I'm pretty sure its 93 for queensbridge and he chose the number 69 originally but the rockets wouldn't let him keep it so he switched the numbers around. GO NETS.

Billy B Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 I thought I read somewhere that Artest wanted to wear 69 with the Rockets, but the NBA won't allow that to be used so he switched it around to 96. The 96 units does make sense though.EDIT: I guess I was right, joshey's post wasn't there when I typed mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
