BBTV Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Andrew Bynum will wear #33 for the Sixers.EDIT: nevermind, I don't know how credible the source for that was.Confirmed, he's switching to #33 for anyone who cares.

LEWJ Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 C.J. Miles has said, via twitter, that he will be wearing #0 with the Cavaliers. No pictures yet though, that I can find. | BROWNS | BUCKEYES | CAVALIERS | INDIANS | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedSox44 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Random thought of the day...Do you guys think KG will have his number retired by the Celts? I mean if he played on any average team, it would be retired no question (had he stayed longer in Minnesota for example). But the Celts obviously have a higher standard. What do you guys think?I think so. I also think Allen will have his number retired, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DG_ThenNowForever Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Andrew Bynum will wear #33 for the Sixers.EDIT: nevermind, I don't know how credible the source for that was.Confirmed, he's switching to #33 for anyone who cares.Awesome. 33 is a good number for a center, and I feel like Bynum is on his way to being a great one. Not the thread for this, but I feel really good about Bynum coming to the East. I think he's going to do a lot for that franchise and 33 is a nice, iconic number for a franchise center. 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...

I believe he picked #17 with LA was because he was the youngest NBA player to play in the league at 17? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the thread for this, but I feel really good about Bynum coming to the East. I think he's going to do a lot for that franchise and 33 is a nice, iconic number for a franchise center.According to @SixersCEOAdam, he made it a point to specifically request 33. I think it's cool because #32 and #34 are retired, so that's a good neighborhood to be in for someone who's supposed to be a really good player. It'd look bad for some dufus to be wearing that number. Also, like you said, it's the quintessential center number. He can't have 32 or 34, and 35 is just an ugly basketball number (kind of an ugly number all together.) 30 and 31 just don't work either IMO. 50 and 55 are becoming better center numbers, but they're not as classic as 33.Off topic (sort of) I thought it was cool that the Phillies had 32 and 36 retired for HOF pitchers, and now have Cliff Lee wearing 33, Halladay wearing 34, and Hamels wearing 35. If they each made the HOF, the team would have every number from 32-36 retired. Unfortunately, Cliff Lee ended up being a sack of dung, Hamels still has far to go, and Halladay really hasn't been here long enough yet.

I feel Minny will give him that respect, and the fans will be clamoring for it. Also, nobody has worn it since him, so why not retire it? And he has done enough "here" in Boston to deserve consideration at least. Changing the attitude of the club, bring a title, going to the Finals one year, and the ECF another year. I see 21 gone in Minny, and 5 gone in Boston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy B Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Garnett will without a doubt have his number retired in Minnesota. By the end of his career it will be about 50/50 for where he spent his time so he'll probably get it retired both places. But he's the biggest star the Timberwolves have ever had and was dominant there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
