He's going to be on National TV (TNT) Thursday night vs the Celtics. Could be a huge game for him hobby wise to see if he can keep this hype train at full speed.

A raw base almost broke the $100 mark last night via auction.

Insane where these boxes are. I have opened 3 hobby's, got them last season for like $60 and hit a purple Giannis in the first box which graded 9.5 and every box had at least 1 base. The rest of the cards were sooooo bad, makes it such tough call to open anything right now. I snagged the last 2 JUMBO boxes from Steel City the night before the world exploded and its going to be absolute torture not opening them. Maybe it's time for a safety deposit box? I am a Sixers fan so I really really look forward to the Giannis / Simmons matchup and the booing of the totally undeserved award winning Brogdon.

Would Sixers fans really boo Brogdon? It's not like it's his fault he was voted ROY.

Unfortunately, yes. There is a podcast here that is a bit of a cult following and has targeting Brogdon as an Enemy Of The Process. It's partially a joke but let's be real, Philadelphia fans are horrendous and it will be taken to an ugly level. Totally not his fault, the kid played OK on an up an coming team with an amazing star. Both Dario and Embiid were more VALUABLE to their team, it's not even a question.

Here is an article that Yahoo posted yesterday. Not sure if anyone read it.

The problem is that Embiid didn't play enough games. Saric should have won it IMO

This is one of the reasons I think most of us collect - the ability to hoard the right player and have everything line up for a huge, huge pay day. This guy picked the right player. Amazing.

That's amazing. I wonder how early the seller got in on him. I'm not sure if a lot like that is the best way to sell them though. Might just be showing them off. I don't blame him lol

He is actually a member on the boards for a long time and a nice guy. i have thought for the past 2 years he had the best giannis collection possible and he is still looking to buy as far as i know.

Very odd that during this boom, and even before it, there has not been a single Rookie Silver Prizm Auto listed.

Have a few PSA 10 up now just to take some profits but yes at home on "prime time" ... 30 point + game 10-12 boards , 4-5 dimes and a win = 190-200 level for PSA 10

I don't wanna sell but it's really hard not to right now if it's about making some $$ then putting it towards more Giannis and then something else

daeve 10-25-2017 01:29 PM

Does anyone know how long it took Curry Topps RC's to go from $100 to $600? Wasn't it just a few months?

pretty sure it was weeks

oshmeehan 10-25-2017 01:32 PM

This should be awesome. The game will be in the old home of the Bucks until 1988, the MECCA. This is the court they will be using tomorrow:
