Kobe won championships as #8 and as #24. Do you think the Lakers will retire both numbers after retires?
 
Most players worthy of number retirement do not change numbers while on the same team. Can only think of Jordan and 45 for the Bulls. Do not think 45 was retired.

He didn't win a title as #45. Just played half a season and changed back to #23 mid-playoffs. Kobe has won championships with both.

He was also accused of rape in one and changed numbers to rebuild his image. Not for sure they retire both since grandfathers will forever have to tell why there are two Kobe numbers retired.
 
Kobe Bryant's ego needs two numbers to be retired. That's why he made the change.
 
At first I thought "no, theres no chance" but it would be very odd to see another Laker wearing 8 or 24 some day

How many titles did Kobe win as an anal-rapist and how many before?

Probably should be noted in the record books.
 
Is there a reason MJ took 45 after wearing it in baseball? Happened before I was into bball. Still odd seeing him wear that #.
 
Wayne Gretzky maybe?

EDIT: No, but he had his #99 retired by the Oilers and Kings. Pretty sure he wore #9 for most of his time with the Oilers though.

I think he has always been 99. he wanted 9 for his hero, Gordie Howe, but it was already taken

More useless trivia for all of you.

Seriously, in the future a post as offensive as this should be a bannable offense. I'd like to see a vote on this and if passed I'd like to see it added to the forum bylaws and rules of conduct.

Thanks.

HCP admitted yesterday that he has dreams where he's wearing Kobe's jersey.

He didn't. He was 99 from Day One as an Oiler.
 
If KG can win a ring or two with Brooklyn...do you think he could have 3 numbers retired? That'd be nuts.
 
Kareem, pistol Pete, sir Charles, Wilt, Drexler, Dr J, Bob Lanier, Moses Malone, Earl Monroe, Big O, Thurmond, maybe others.
 
I have retired my penis a number of times into Mrs HCP, does that count?
 
Kareem? Milwaukee and lakers?

Two different numbers?

Drexler retired 22 with Houston and PDX

That's just one number.

That doesn't answer the question. How many of those had two separate numbers retired? Dd any of them?

By the way, did you guys know that Miami retired Jordan's number?

You are right. I totally had a different story in my head about that. Weird.

In defense of Kobe (did I just fucking type that???) She told him not to Nutt on her face and he did it anyway. The sex was consensual.

Says who. Kobe?

Cause there is a video somewhere of her karaokeing singing that Kobe raped her
