If there is a legend, there is only one: 23.

Give you some stories:

The number of cramming-12

Michael Jordan pushed the No.23 jersey to the hottest spot in the NBA. Even with the contemporary young players as the measurement base, you can still find a large number of admirers of the No.23 jersey. When asked why, the almost unanimous answer is "follow Jordan". As we all know, Jordan put on the No.45 jersey after his first comeback, which is partly because his No.23 jersey has been hung on the Bulls, but Jody obviously didn't take it to heart. He found that the No.45 jersey made him worse and worse, and he did not hesitate to use the No.23 jersey again. This may be the most brilliant experience of starting a jersey. When the fans saw Jordan wearing the No.23 jersey, the avalanche and tsunami-like applause almost knocked off the ceiling of the stadium. The story after that is familiar to everyone. Jordan once again led the bulls to win three consecutive championships in the second dynasty.

A little-known story is that Jordan used to wear 12 jersey, which can be traced back to 1990' s Bulls vs Magic game in February. Jordan's No.23 jersey was accidentally stolen by a team employee, so Old Joe had no choice but to put on the 12 jersey and left in a hurry. As a result, Joe shot 2 1 43, scored 49 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists, and Bull 129 135 lost the game. It is said that Jordan chose the number 12 because this number is closest to half of the number on the 23rd. This event is called "the upset of Valentine's Day".

It should be mentioned that this 12 jersey vest does not have Jordan's name. For Jordan fans who have a hobby of collecting jerseys and equipment, this jersey is a unique top treasure.

Number of two retirements-Celtic 18

Boston is a paradise for players, because you will find it quite easy to retire jerseys at Celtic. Otherwise, how do you explain that there are so many retirement numbers hanging over the home of the Green Shirts? Boston is also a hell for players, because you will find that even if you join the Celtics, you have no right to choose the number at all, because too many excellent players' jerseys have been retired, and newcomers to the Green Shirts often have to grab a jersey to wear on their heads. Want to choose a number? Unless a retired boss kindly unfreezes his jersey, the younger generation will never get those brilliant figures.

But in Celtic, 18 jersey was retired twice. The first time belonged to Jimmy Roska Tofu, a famous player in the 1950s. He is the 55th rookie. During his 9-year career, he won 7 championship trophies with the Green Shirts. After he retired in 1964, Celtic plans to retire his 18 jersey accordingly; However, Jimmy Roska-Toff refused to seal his jersey. He is worried that the future Celtics will not be able to use this lucky number. So, 70-year-old rookie Dave cowans joined in and put on the jersey 18. After cowans retired, the jersey 18 was officially put up.

The generosity of Jimmy Roska Toff makes the Celtics' 18 jersey a special case and a much-told story.

Choose the Numbers to Worship —— Artest's Bull Complex

Artest, nicknamed the beast, has a rough style. He once broke Jordan's ribs. In the face of childhood idols, he can explode with such terrible lethality. Artest's playing style can be imagined. At the same time, Artest is also one of the most diligent players in the NBA. He crossed the jersey numbers 15, 23, 9 1 and 93, and now he has chosen 96.

Many players will change their jerseys, and most of the time they are helpless, but Artest changes his jerseys quite actively and frequently (he wore four different numbers in the first eight years of his career). According to his own account, he changed from 15 to 23 and 9 1 because of his worship of Jordan and Rodman in the second bull dynasty, which is like endless rivers and floods of the Yellow River.

As for the origin of the No.93 jersey? The author found an interview from February 17 1 to 1 in official website, the wasp. In the face of a reporter's question, Artest made this explanation: "I chose No.93 because I come from Queensbridge, new york, and 9 is similar to Q, while 3 is a part of B"-this hieroglyphic explanation is a classic of choice strategy.

The helplessness of repeatedly giving way-sharks from No.32 to No.34

It was an era when jerseys began with "3". In the mid-1990s, most NBA players chose numbers starting with 3, and O 'Neill was no exception. His jersey number for the Magic is 32.

There are not many players with the strength and arrogance like Ao Pang, but during his years with the Los Angeles Lakers, he had no choice but to switch to No.34.. When he first arrived in Los Angeles, O 'Neill didn't covet No.32, but in the Lakers arena, No.32 "Magic" Johnson's jersey had long since retired. Even fools know the historical position of "magician" in the Lakers. Although O 'Neal was stronger than his brain, he was not arrogant enough to think that he could persuade the Lakers owner to use the No.32 jersey again. So O 'Neill thought of a number slightly close to 32, and he still had to give in. No.33 jersey belongs to retired celebrity "Karim Abdel-Jabbar" Jabbar. In the Lakers' locker room culture, Jabbar's position is much higher than that of the team owner, and O' Neill can't get No.33. ..

In the end, O 'Neill chose No.34, which is the closest number to No.32 and No.33. It turns out that O 'Neill didn't choose the wrong number. His glory in winning three consecutive championships in the new century also qualifies him to retire from the Lakers jersey in the future.

Fortunately, O 'Neill finally realized his long-cherished wish to wear the No.32 jersey in his lifetime. He wore the familiar No.32 jersey and the championship ring in Miami.

The Duty of Selecting Watches —— The Salvation of Fat Toutuo

Anthony Walker and paul pierce were called Boston Gemini, but Danny Angie was obviously dissatisfied with the three-point satellite habit of "Fat Toutuo" Walker, so Walker was "exiled" in June 2003 and transferred to Dallas Mavericks and Atlanta Hawks. When he returned to Celtic, there was no need to say much about the sigh and emotion of returning to his hometown. The problem is that Walker's favorite number 8 jersey has been "occupied" by the younger generation of Ai Jefferson, and Walker can only find a number 88 that is somewhat similar.

According to the unspoken rules of NBA, as long as Jefferson agrees, he can "return" No.8 to Walker. In fact, Jefferson did the same. He gave number 8 to Walker. Similarly, according to the unspoken rules of NBA, Walker needs to give Jefferson a gift in return. As a result, Big Brother Walker spent almost 1, 000 dollars to buy a luxury watch, which gave his little brother Jefferson a complete surprise.

Jefferson was still a rookie with a rookie contract at that time, and suddenly he noticed that such an expensive gift was quite ostentatious. It is said that Jefferson brings a new watch every day. Whenever he sees any teammate in the locker room, he will immediately come forward to warmly entertain him: "Hey, brother, do you need to know the time now?" If he sees antoine walker, he will rush forward more enthusiastically and ask by name, "Hey, Anthony, do you want to know what time it is?"

It is said that Walker usually mumbles, "I don't want to know the time, but I know this watch cost me $65,438+0,000 yuan."

There is a follow-up to this joke. Since the No.8 jersey was returned to antoine walker, Jefferson chose No.7 as his number. As a result, he received a mobile phone message from his former teammate Guguriauta at the first time: "Don't choose No.7, this number is unlucky."

It's only one step away-the transformation of the big bug from 10 to 9 1

Rodman, a "big bug", first wore 10 jersey in Detroit Pistons and San Antonio Spurs, then changed to 9 1 jersey in the bull era, and later joined the Los Angeles Lakers. Rodman once again put on the No.73 jersey. In the era of his last NBA boss Mavericks, Rodman began to wear the No.70 jersey. As we all know, Rodman has a soft spot for NO. 10. Except the last 70, the preceding "9+ 1" and "7+3" are all equal to "10".

And why did Rodman wear 9 1 in the bulls? This joke is very interesting-the Bulls' 10 jersey belongs to retired star robert love, who was an excellent striker of the Bulls in the 1970s. However, robert love's 10 jersey was not qualified to retire from the Bulls until1June 65438+1October/April 4, 1994. Rodman joined Chicago Bulls on August 5th, 1996. Before him, that is, the first dynasty of bulls, it was not that no one wore 10 jersey. 10 of that era belonged to baby-faced guard B.J. Armstrong, who was the sixth person in the first dynasty, especially 90-9 1 season and 965438. Armstrong is a typical iron man in the back line. He only missed 1 game in the first seven seasons of his career.

Unfortunately, when Rodman joined the Bulls, the 10 jersey had been retired, so Rodman passed the long-awaited 10 jersey, and he began to calculate the long years of 10.

Choose strong thigh hugging type -No. 1 1 kalmalong.

In the history of the league, it is almost impossible to find such a tragic number change. In the summer of 2003, karl malone, the postman, moved to L.A. and hugged his thighs with OK. Because Malone had worn the No.32 jersey for many years and had been retired by Magic Johnson in Los Angeles, he had to choose another number. 1 1 jersey became the second and last one of Malone's career.

Everyone knows that Malone's pursuit of the championship came to an end. This is the last time a great player fights for the championship. The great Malone even sacrificed his leadership for many years. Unfortunately, the postman finally returned to the pasture empty-handed.

It should be mentioned that Malone won the respect of everyone, including jazz fans-and "Magic" Johnson heard that Malone was willing to condescend to help O 'Neal Kobe, and even called the Lakers general manager's office at the first time, hoping that they would convey their willingness to reuse No.32 for Malone. Malone refused the kindness of "Magic" Johnson without hesitation. In Malone's view, all honors, from jersey numbers to championship rings, need to be won by themselves rather than sold by others!

Looking at flowers in the fog: Kobe changed his robe

One of the highlights in the summer of 2006 was that Kobe announced that he would no longer wear No.8 jersey from 2006, and he would wear No.24, which was his jersey number when he joined the high school team. When he led the high school team to win the state championship in 1996, he wore the No.33 jersey of his father Joe Bryant High School.

The public explanation of Kobe Bryant's number change is that he has a complex of returning to nature, but different versions of the media explanation have different understandings. It is said that Kobe changed the number 24 to surpass the number 23 Jordan, thus becoming the first person in the history of the league.

No matter what Kobe's motivation is, his original intention is obvious: I hope I can get stronger and stronger! It's just that different versions of rumors have added a lot of color to Kobe's number change.

Tian Zi first-pursuing the bully Stoudemire!

On May 26th, 2006, ESPN official news announced that "Little Overlord" Stoudemire would be changed from No.32 to 1 in the coming year-this change has two obvious meanings: First, Stoudemire suffered a knee injury in the 2005-06 season, which was almost scrapped all year round, hoping to change his luck with a new number; Second, start a new life from "1", "1" represents the status of the enlightener, and Stoudemire hopes to become the team leader.

By changing the number, Stoudemire's wish was at least half realized: his mid-range shooting became more and more accurate, and he changed from a pure violent spike to an all-round striker who could stably form an open shot at a high position, and his health was quite good in 2006-07, with 82 attendance, and he was selected for the first team of the year; However, it seems that Stoudemire's wish to become the leader of the sun can only continue to fail. The real core of the Suns is the ball handler Steve Nash. With him, the team's combat effectiveness will be fully exerted, and Stoudemire will have more room to play.

An unsuccessful attempt to change the number-Martin put back the university number!

In the summer of 2007, kenyon martin announced that he would change his jersey number to No.4, and he always wore No.6 ... Martin's change of number did not rule out the superstitious elements of "sweeping away bad luck". In his early years, he was the number one forward in the eastern forward line, helping the New Jersey Nets enter the finals in a row. However, seven years after signing a contract with Denver for $965,438+0 (another version said that it was $92.5 million in seven years), Martin's luck couldn't be better. Even if his fighting capacity plummets, even if his body is getting better and better.

As early as his college days in Cincinnati, Martin wore the No.4 jersey. After being delisted by the New Jersey Nets in the 2000 draft, he had to give up, because the Nets' No.4 jersey had already been retired by Wendell Laidna, a famous player in Aba era. In desperation, Martin chose the No.6 jersey of his basketball idol bill russell and wore it for seven seasons.

Will wearing the No.4 jersey bring good luck to Martin? I don't know yet, but what is certain is that Martin's luck will never get worse. His role in Denver was almost marginalized. If his luck falls further, it seems that it can only mean unemployment. ...
