Why is Kobe ditching No. 8 for No. 24? Here's eight of your pet theories...

I think that Kobe decided to wear No. 24 because No. 8 makes him look fat.
-- Cornelius, Ottawa, Ontario

He no longer likes Dale Earnhardt Jr. and is now supporting Jeff Gordon.
-- Gary (Atlanta)

Maybe he's going to sign and sell all his "8" equipment and paraphernalia on eBay since they're guaranteed to be collector's items and sell for ridiculous prices. I'd do it.
-- B.C., Chicago, Ill.

I don't know why he is changing his number to 24 but he should change it to 81 because No. 8 is No. 1 and because of that magical game against the Raptors.
--Jacob, Winston-Salem, N.C.

He thinks himself one step ahead of Michael Jordan, so he is adding one to the number 23.
-- Bal, Reno, Nev.

Because with Lamar, they are 24/7. Nike marketing.
-- Totoro in California

I think it is obvious that Kobe was intimidated (as most Americans are) by Jack Bauer (of the TV show "24") and forced to switch.
-- Scott, Washington D.C.

Because 8 + 24 = 32 . . . and that's the "Magic" number. Go Lakers!
-- Maceo


i like the last one and the 24/7 one

I suppose since everyone would have to update their #8 merchandise for #24.

i think changing his number to 81 would be sweet too, but of course that would be considered an egotistical movie, especially from people who hate kobe.

very true..but considering im neutral about kobe (dont hate him..not a fan) ...it wouldn't be a bad idea if he did that.

I am talking about how Adidas now owns Reebok and that means they will be making official NBA jerseys, and a lot of fans will buy them.

he could switch to 81 and i'd call him terrell owens...

i think him switching is egotistical anyway, he wants more publicity, money, possibly 2 retired laker jerseys? or would la just retire his 24? Also, hipn, your sig says "my sig is not sit, ..." I think you mean avatar. I would hope sit isn't morris peterson :P

You referred to Kobe having a deal with Adidas, which cannot be true as he's now affiliated with Nike.
