welcome to follow "Tomorrow is a monster" , a video number that makes NBA data look better.
LeBron James finally said through social media that he would hand the 23rd to Anthony Davis.
is not a new season, and it may be delayed for another year.
Since Davis arrived in the Lakers in 2019, James will wear No. 23 to him and wear No. 6 by himself. Why wait until 2021 before everything is possible?
In 2019, it was due to the obstruction of sponsors-when James decided to change the number, the sponsor had already made his No. 23 jersey. Once the number was changed, the loss was huge;
2020, because of the epidemic, the off-season was greatly shortened. Big Eyebrow renews the contract with the Lakers, and the new season will begin. It is too late to change the jersey number.
Good things are hard to beat.
James surrendered No. 23 to No. 6 at the end of his career, and the significance is not only to inherit the younger generation. Who dares to say that James, who just won the fourth championship, has not caught up with Michael Jordan, who has won six championships? Z3z
has a deep relationship, Zhan Huang and "6" those things
In 2003, the 18-year-old James landed in the NBA under the aura of the "chosen son", he put on the Cavaliers No. 23 jersey. James chose No. 23, which has a lot to do with Michael Jordan.
"It is sacred to be able to meet Jordan. I have said it many times before, but the first time I saw Jordan, it felt like seeing God. When I saw Jordan as a 16-year-old child, that was My true feelings," James said of the first time I met Jordan in 2001.
In the 2010 offseason, James announced his "decision" to leave the Cavaliers and switch to the Heat, because the Heat have retired Jordan’s No. 23 jersey, and he wanted to pay tribute to Jordan. James chose to give up No. 23 and change his number. He chose No. 6. . When explaining the reason for his number change, James said: "My second favorite player is Julius Irving. He crossed the No. 6, and I crossed the No. 32 in high school because of Irving."
"When I was a child, I listened to it. By the name of many players, as a Jordan fan, I always knew that Jordan admires Irving. So I thought,'Wow, who is Irving? Since even Jordan admires him, then I want to know who this person is.' Choosing No. 6 when changing numbers does have something to do with Irving."
In 2013, James posted a set of photos on social media. In the photos, he was combing his explosive head like Irving, wearing what Irving wore in ancient times. The No. 6 tight jersey pays tribute to Owen in this way.
James played for the Heat wearing the No. 6 shirt for 4 seasons. The Heat have reached the finals and won 2 championships. In Miami, James won his first championship and reached the pinnacle of his NBA career. For James, No. 6 not only carries the sweetest memories of his NBA career, but also includes his national team career. When playing for the Dream Team, he wore the No. 6 shirt and helped the US team win the 2008 Beijing Olympics and 2012. London Olympic gold medal.
James chose number 6, which is also related to his family. James once said: "This number has a lot to do with my children. My youngest child was born in June, and then my first child was born on October 6. Day." Z3z
gave up No. 23, Zhan Huang was eager to cut with Jordan
Since James put on No. 23, the comparison between him and Jordan has never stopped. For most players, it is an honor to be able to compare with Jordan. But James is, after all, the greatest player of this era, he is eager to open his own way.
In November 2009, James, who was still playing for the Cavaliers at the time, announced that next season he would change his number no matter where he played, and he would give up No. 23 to pay tribute to Jordan.
“I just think that Jordan’s contribution to this sport should be recognized soon,” James said at the time. “If you didn’t have Jordan first, there wouldn’t be James, Kobe Bryant, Dwayne. -Wade. "
" His image cannot be the NBA logo. In this case, we must do something. I think no player should wear size 23. I will start a petition and let everyone in the league sign it. Now, if I don't wear size 23 anymore, Then no one else should wear it. "Z3z
James believes that the 23rd has become Jordan's label, he said: "You see the 23rd, you will think of Jordan. When you see the lore, you will think of Jordan. When you see players flying in the sky, you will think of Jordan. He has done too many things, these must be recognized, you can't just put him in the Hall of Fame. "Z3z
Zhanhuang's remarks seem to pay tribute to Jordan on the surface. In fact, the deeper reason is that he hopes his personal brand can leave the shadow of Jordan. Like James said, people think of Jordan when they see the 23rd. This is not conducive for James to build his own personal brand image. In particular, Jordan Brand belongs to Nike, and James is the most important spokesperson for Nike. The two main product branches are in conflict. This is obviously not what Nike wants to see. Z3z
later, whether he returned to the Cavaliers or switched to the Lakers, James wears back to No. 23, but he has been trying hard to cut off from Jordan. For example, last year, filming "Space Slam Dunk 2", although James, who played for the Lakers at the time, wore It is No. 23, but he wears No. 6 in the movie. As we all know, Jordan’s "Space Dunk" was a huge success that year. James hopes to use his personal identity to succeed, instead of relying on Jordan and No. 23. Influence. Z3z
inherited the younger generation, but Zhan Huang thought it was not so simple. During the 2019 offseason, the Lakers completed a deal with the Pelicans and got Davis. One day, James hosted Davis at a restaurant in Los Angeles. The banquet came to an end. When James suddenly took out an envelope, he told Davis that it was a greeting card prepared by James’ wife Savannah.
"Welcome to Los Angeles, brother," Davis took the envelope and said Confused, he didn't know why Savannah would give him an envelope with a greeting card. After seeing the word "brother", Davis was even more puzzled, how Savannah would call him "brother". At the end, Davis understood that this was actually what James prepared for him, because the signature was written "King James 6"
The focus was on this "6". Suddenly, James took out a Lakers No. 23 jersey. Handed it to Davis: "This is for you. I know you want No. 23. Here you are. This is the Lakers No. 23. You can own this jersey. "Z3z
Davis understands that James wants to give him No. 23, and he will change his number to No. 6.
"This moment is really cool," Davis said. Z3z
James' intention to inherit the younger generation is very obvious. From the first day Davis joined the Lakers, James said that the core of the Lakers tactics will be Davis. Davis represents the future of the Lakers. The change of number is the first step for James to fulfill his promise. Unfortunately, Because there is no advance application, and Nike has made a large inventory of the No. 23 jersey for James, James will continue to wear the No. 23 last season and the new season. Davis will officially wear the No. 23 jersey until the 2021-22 season.
But at this stage of his career, James may be thinking about not just passing the torch. With the current strength and prospects of the Lakers, if James wears No. 6 and No. 23 to win the championship, the Lakers will use his two jerseys. Both retired, let him compete with Kobe?
In 2013, Jordan compared James and Kobe in an interview: "In terms of dominance on the basketball court, then I choose James. But from the perspective of the number of titles, Kobe has the advantage. It is difficult to choose between the two of them, but 5>1 (James had not yet won the second crown). "Later, after James won three championships, Jordan said in an interview: "5>3. "Z3z
After winning the fourth championship of his career, James and Jordan's "first in history" dispute has intensified. If James leads the Lakers to win the championship next season, his number of championships will be equal to Kobe, and only one time behind Jordan. James 2021-22 Changing the "No. 6" in the season, is there a meaning of winning the championship more than Kobe and catching up with Jordan?
said James has no such meaning, do you believe it?
