MJ did it first!

“23 is number 1”

• some scrub

Fuck, I lost Giannis on my team, then I lost my house on the number Giannis would wear.

Now I’m poor but I’m not Greek, so I’m just a freak

I was talking about changing his jersey number after a year in Miami. Didn’t know it was only the NFL though

History will forget how close they were to pulling off the upset

I dunno, he was an all star once while there and the rest of his career after wasn’t anything special. I don’t think he gets his number retired, but he definitely would be a lot more beloved by fans

Retiring Dragic is crazy lol r nba takes on who should get jerseys retired and statues are always way out too. Then again the heat retire numbers for players who never even play for them

Not to mention Jimmy got injured too. In the same game.

It led people to overrate the fuck out of that Lakers team

Heat would’ve retired 7 for Dragic if he finished his career there

Bro are you high

DeAndre Jordan got to wear number 6 on the Pelicans last year even though he switched teams after the grandfather policy. So it seems like they let those specific players who had it continue to wear it but after they’re out, that’s it.

If LeBron comes back, the NBA will let him get 6 back. Cmon

Retired league wide what?!

He can, Deandre Jordan wears 6 with New Orleans.

I’m taking my talent to South Beach, and my jersey number will reference the number of rings I’ll finish my career with.

I know you know, we’re gonna are gonna enjoy the sun, the fun and and the spoils of Florida, but you also know we the three kings came down to win championships. Not one championship !

Not one, maybe two or three !

23 is retired in miami specifically for jordan even tho he never played there

but their family and friends can

C’mon brother, 80% of the people making money on those sites are just doing insider trading. Easier to get away with there because the futures market is barely regulated compared to the stock market or sports gambling.

Are prediction markets covered by these rules?

Isn’t the whole reason Kalshi isn’t banned in states like Washington because it isn’t betting? I bet he could totally place a wager on “Giannis Next Number”. The NBA hasn’t shown a great track record about caring how their stars make their money. Legally or not.

I know Kalshi isn’t Polymarket, but the Polymarket CEO said insider trading is part of the appeal. He wants people to have insider knowledge on these bets.

Who now, it’s not a “bet” on Kalshi, they’re trading, totally legitimate. And why wouldn’t Giannis trade on something he has total control over? That is just good business.

What kind of anti-consumer BS is this? If the team is selling gear it’s their responsibility to make sure everything is proper

They literally say in the sale it’s a pre order until the player finalizes his number. It’s no big deal at all they just change it

That’s fine, that would be fun to watch

What if he drops 7 points on 34 shots instead

Maybe he can show Paul George to the door on his way in

Still one of the weirdest facts in pro basketball

hakeem, shaq, barkley

I don’t think they actually printed them but there was a listing and they were actively pushing them

2x3 = 6

6! = 720

The three mathematicians

It could be in response to Giannis getting number 34 retired in Milwaukee.  Since he and Ray both wore that number there he might be renumbering as a means of respecting his predecessor ti give him an opportunity at a jersey retirement as well.

It could also be Giannis viewing the number 34 and his time in Milwaukee hand in hand and wanting to keep thay jersey number as a symbol of his time on his original team.

The official team store in the Kaseya center was draped in No. 34 Giannis jerseys today.

No, I’m just a weirdo

It’s gonna be rare, that’s basically what determines that kind of thing.

It’s kind of a neat thing to have if they stop producing them officially

People always say this across all sports and it’s never true lol. Maybe a LeBron heat 23 would be unique but def not a Giannis
