Steve Francis #8

I've encountered an interesting problem. After the trade deadline, i updated the roster using the roster released by Andrew on the 13th of Feb. I used the roster update in the game. Now, after i finish with all the trades, i decided to start a dynasty with NY. To my surprise, the jersery number of Francis was automatically changed to #8. Now how did that happen. I didn't believe it at first so i redownloaded the patch again and did the trades, this time i checked Francis' jersey number using DBCommander. And it was changed to 8. To my knowledge, there isn't a value in players.dbf that specifies a "back up" jersey number. Does anybody know what going on here?

8 is simply the closest number available next to #3 on the Knicks roster so the game automatically picks the closest number available(counting upwards)

wow what a coincidence. although on the knicks home page they list francis at #8, he seemed to have used #1 today. anyways thanks

ya i got exact same thing, i was asking my self million times, did i changed his jeursey number/ the answer is no nonononon so u jus solve it for me haha thx bud...
