Lebron has worn #23 in honor of NBA legend Michael Jordan since his high school days, but now, LeBron says he wants everyone else to give up the number out of respect to His Airness. "I just think what Michael Jordan has done for the game has to be recognized in some way - soon," James told the Cleveland Plain Dealer after a game in Miami on Thursday night. "There would be no LeBron James, no Kobe Bryant, no Dwyane Wade, you name all the best players in the league right now and the last 10 years, there would be none of us without Michael Jordan."He also says that he's willing to start a petition to get every player in the league wearing 23 to give up the number. "It's time," James said. "He's the best basketball player we've ever seen. Mike does it on the court and off the court. If you see 23, you think about Michael Jordan... I feel like no NBA player should wear 23. Nobody. If I'm not going to wear number 23, then nobody else should be able to wear it."
Umm Bron, win a championship then try at this again! haha
