how do they do it if someone switches numbers? Like kobe from 8 to 24, and LBJ from 23 to 6? What one will be retired?

if LBJ leaves Cleveland, I don't think he gets his number retired.

Come on man, let's cut this kid some slack. He's at least trying to contribute! He could be like that other 'kid' on here, mtrulz!

Maybe...he is their all time leading scorer already. Would be interesting to see if they would retire it....I doubt it, since he will be considered the anti christ if he leaves.

Joseph Stalin wasn't quite Hitler, does that mean we should cut him some slack?

After all of this fanfare he will get run out of Chicago or New York when he quits in another playoff series.

If he leaves, I think he'll sign a 3-year deal. If he DOESN'T go to Chicago, I don't think he wins a championship in that 3 years. Then I think he moves again. It's just a hunch I have.

I wouldn't be surprised if Kobe has 8 and 24 retired when it's all said and done.

Cleveland would be crazy not to retire 23 regardless of what he ends up doing. 2x MVP, easily the best player in your franchise history.
