CLEVELAND (AP) -- LeBron James wants NBA players to give up their No. 23s to honor Michael Jordan.
The Cavaliers superstar, who has worn 23 since he was a high school sophomore, believes players should pay tribute to Jordan for the Hall of Famer's impact on the game.
"I just think what Michael Jordan has done for the game has to be recognized in some way -- soon," James said. "There would be no LeBron James, no Kobe Bryant, no Dwyane Wade, you name all the best players in the league right now and the last 10 years, there would be none of us without Michael Jordan."
that's crazy, i wonder what number he'll go with.
could just be pulling a Kobe because he knows that everybody is going to buy the new jersey.

Yup. His jersey sales will skyrocket, especially if he is playing for the Knicks.

lol @ him wanting the whole league to pay homage.

i wouldn't be surprised if they do though.
if a major player like LeBron or Kobe says something like, "nobody should wear #23", the league might pass some bullshit like that.
& it's bullshit because a guy like Larry Bird is half a notch down from Jordan.

If he's changing teams everybody is going to buy his new jersey anyways, regardless of what number he wears

He said he'll wear #6.

props.
i hate how he says "if there wasn't a MJ, there wouldn't be a me, Kobe or Wade"; Kobe would just be "The Jordan" as of right now if there was no MJ.

it's about damn time these players stopped the Michael Jordan worship
it was cute in 98 but in 2009 it's played out
niggas in hockey don't try to immitate Wayne, and niggas in the NFL don't try to pretend their Joe Montana

I laugh at how the US medias made a big deal of this . They are talking more about this than the games played these latest days.
I cannot find a biggest attention whore than Lebron ( besides Kanye) , dude cannot stand not to be on the spotlight . This is just a poor excuse to say "look everybody , I'm changing my number next year ; please buy my jersey"

who cares what number he is wearing next season, I want to know what jersey he be wearing lol
