Picked up a Lakers jersey today, and I have to say...very confused about this one. It appears to be a properly tagged, size 46+4 2001-02 team-issued jersey.

That's not the odd part, however. Number is 8 - Kobe Bryant - and the NOB is "NOT GUILTY".

I know this isn't Kobe's size - believe he ranged from a 50+4 to a 54+4 (IIRC) - and obviously it wasn't game worn. I'm looking to get opinions on the stitching (pictured below). Is this a somewhat-tasteless-but-really-good-quality fan customization of an issued blank, or does the stitching/font match up with game jerseys?

Stitching looks fine. Someone just got too creative with the name. You can probably have it removed and restitched so this is actually wearable.
