Bulldog Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/basketbal...s/preview/2006/ see this link - has Kobe got a new number for a new beginning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shug94 Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 It could be because he thinks he is now three times the player that he was last year? Or maybe he thinks he is a little better than Jordan, so 24 instead of 23. Has he done any interviews explaining this shift? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joannes3000 Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Was wondering the same thing. Noticed that in the NBA 2K7 commercial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popeye Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 He is wearing #24 just because Marvin is wearing it and he knows that Marvin will be great one day so he just wants to have something in common with Marvin. Hell yeah! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weez Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 he's been quoted as saying that it stands for, "24/7", and outright denying the 'one-up MJ' rationale. He applied for this number 6-8 months ago, per NBA rules; this marks the first year that he will not be sporting (I think) he's father's old NBA number.

terrynoonan Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 I think he wore it as a kid. But the only number I want to see Kobe with is zero. Zero titles without Shaq. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
