Note: I got this idea from a letter to Bill Simmons but since The Concierge says its possible to get a patent for an existing product, I'm running with it.
Earlier this season, on November 6th, while the Knicks still had Jerome James they hosted LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The Knicks should have paid Jerome James during the offseason to change his uniform number from #31 to #23.
On that date they should have held Jerome James replica jersey night.
Imagine it, 19,763 fans in #23 Knicks jerseys with James on the back.
That would have been the greatest recruiting tool possible and there isn't a damn thing the NBA could do about it, though I'm sure the Cavs would have filed a tampering complaint.
The fact that the Knicks spent three years preparing for this and didn't think of that really upsets me.
