The NBA announced their top-selling player jerseys from the 2014-2015 season and I was both disappointed and surprised to learn that Denver Nuggets center Jusuf Nurkić was not among the top five...
Not really though, because the Nuggets are terrible - the day that Nurkić is the person who people think of when they think #23 is the same day that the Nuggets actually win a title, and that's never gonna happen, my friends.
The actual list of top five jerseys looked like this:
5. Derrick Rose, Chicago Bulls
4. Kevin Durant, Oklahoma City Thunder
3. Kobe Bryant, Los Angeles Lakers
2. Stephanie Curry, Golden State Warriors
1. LeBron James, Cleveland Cavaliers
I suppose the story to be told here is that a lot of silly people felt the need to get new LeBron James jerseys after he left Miami. People root for that guy for no reason, and I guess it makes sense; people like watching giants who take four steps to dunk. Not me, though.
As for the other guys, Steph Curry is an exceptional shooter and I'm not surprised to see his name up there, and the same can be said about Durant for that matter. Beyond that, however, I don't know, because Kobe Bryant is about to retire and Derrick Rose is never healthy. "People spend their money on the stupidest things..." says the guy who owns an array of questionable jerseys including Blues defenceman Jay Bouwmeester to former Panthers defensive back Captain Munnerlyn.
