Hats off to LeBron James for relinquishing his number 23 jersey as a way of acknowledging Michael Jordan! He's right; no one but Jordan should wear that number. A magnanimous move by the 'King'! Yeah, about as magnanimous as Rickey Henderson honoring Lou Brock when he ripped his stolen base record!

Yeah, he's doing it to honor Jordan. And I'm Bill Russell! You're doing it honor Jordan?! You've decided that no one but Mike is worthy of rocking that jersey…after a decade of doing just that, yourself. Yeah, you think no one but Mike should wear that number. Yeah, that or your switching numbers because everyone has already bought your jersey and you’re looking to make a huge cash grab by throwing on a new one, "number six".

Wait, so you're not worthy enough to wear Jordan's gear, but it's o.k. to wear Bill Russell's and Dr. J's?! Or it will be, until you sell out of that one and decide that you want to honor them, by changing to Jerry West's 44?

Look, if you want to change out your gear to jam your fans for more cash, that’s fine. I don't have a problem with that. But I do have a problem with you playing us like we're chumps by telling us you're doing it for Mike. You're not! You're doing it for you. And I guarantee Jordan's got a bigger problem with it than I do. You want to honor Mike, throw on "45".
