what an ugly number.

The Sixers told us Kapono had hoped to wear number 24 which he has worn throughout his NBA career, but as Sixers fans know, a 24 jersey hangs in the rafters ofthe Spectrum, retired for the great Bobby Jones. Since Kapono couldn't get his number of choice, he reasoned that he was brought in here to drain threepointers so he'd simply multiply his old number times three. Yes, I double checked on my scientific calculator: 24*3=72.

Wait... so Tracy goes from 1 to 3, and Ariza goes from 3 to 1... This doesnt make sense. Anybody have a reason why the two swapped, even though both playershad their "old" numbers with previous teams?
