    LOL Jordan didn't want either of those numbers. So he's going to be a Cav next year? You don't have to fill out an app for a jersey change if you leave to say NY...

    This has to be one of the most brilliant marketing strategies I have ever seen.

    New number, increased jersey sales.
    Changes his team in the offseason, EVEN MORE JERSEY SALES

    He knows damn well what kind of speculation this brings about, he's effin with everyone and I love it. I pray he doesnt go to NY so the Rockets can cash in big but really, this is brilliant.

    really can't see him going, he's got a top tier team in cleveland and they just got jamison to go with mo and shaq. they've got players at every position and lebron just makes all of them better. he's not going to NY, if he does, it's only because of his billionaire objective he set for himself, not for winning, they won't win unless bron and another star goes there.

    ha i don't get it, he did it because michael jordan deserves to be respected as the only 23 and he is a student of the 'history of the game' as he always said. Does this not slap the face of the no. 6 Julius Erving, and more importantly Bill Russell(who some say is the greatest to ever play and has the most championships) mr student of the history of the game?

    Apparently anyone playing before 1984 is not important.

    First sign that he will be moving to the New Jersey(Brooklyn) Nets. Had to give up number 23 since its retired there.

    Agreed. I'm curious to know if the number 6 has some type of significant meaning to him.

    The Cavaliers jersey #6 that was never worn by James. I wonder how much that's going to go for.

    I see the chances of that move happening are becoming less and less.

    they might stay in Jersey with the recent 2 year deal in downtown Newark.
