I assume that #1 is just a placeholder until Ariza's true jersey number is revealed. The NBA store/Rockets probably rushed to make his jersey available for purchase in an attempt to pick up on the hype of the signing. No big deal.
I agree. It is kind of weird that the "1" on the jersey is way bigger on Ariza's than T-Mac's. They could've just used like "99" or "00" so it's obvious that it's a placeholder.
Okay I thought it was just a joke, but it really is in my store.nba.com shopping cart for 44.99! Should I buy it?
It's not even the same font that we use. The 1's and the lettering on the name are different. I agree that this is just a "placeholder" until Ariza's actual number is announced,
Hah no wait. I think its just a placeholder number as some have mentioned. I think he'll end up having a different number. I advise you wait but do what you wish.
I think if the nba just wanted to hype up the jersey they would have ariza's jersey # as 0 not 1... maybe daryl told ariza tmac will be gone and he wanted #1 as his number... so they're still waiting on the trade? Perhaps...
Yeah, I believe it was an NBATV commercial with Cuttino or something. At any rate, I think this is a non-story, do you really think Ariza's number being #1 which would obviously indicate a Tracy McGrady trade would leak to the NBA store before any other media outlet?
It is a placeholder number. The Lakers Artest jersey was also #1 when they announced he signed with L.A.

The jersey will the warehouse in 2-3 weeks. In that time, Ariza's number will be determined. So a placeholder? Yes.
