2693069, How do you all feel about "farewell tours"?

I think Kareem was the first one to have one with people giving him rocking chairs and stuff and I think Dr J did something similar. Some people thought it was cool some people thought it was corny.

Most players don't decide to retire until the off-season so they don't get the opportunity.

Kobe was the first modern era player to get one and different people had different opinions about that.

This year's farewell tours of Wade and Dirk have been pretty much a love-fest.

With the way players move around now will we see anything like this again?

CP3 may get one especially if he helps the Rockets win a title.

I really can't see anybody else right now...
