All the money is going to be heading to Luka due to Zion recovering like an 80 year old man.

Hm, I’ve thought this was a pretty good price, but yes, you might be right that it isn’t in the steal category.

But imo the PSA10 base for $286 is a pretty good price though.

Honestly, im just scared as hell to buy anything Zion. He's a phenomenal talent but the more reading and research i do the red flags are popping off like crazy. I don't like to say anything bad about anyone but just the way he walks scares me. He's got severe knee knock. Feet are outward and knees together, waddles like a duck when he walks. With the amount of pressure he puts on those knees with his cuts and jumping that ain't good. And again i'm not trying to be a Zion hater because i really think he's special but those knees. I don't think that's something he can change.

This guy called his injury like a day before it happened. He was spot on.

Been saying this for ahwile and no way I will invest anything in the kid way too much of a gamble and I just dont see alot of longevity with him as a player unless drastic changes that will take years happen

I really want Zion to do well because it's good for our hobby and for basketball in general. But there's just too many question marks for me right now to pull the trigger on anything. I think it's hard to be a truly great player without a reliable jumpshot, which obviously can be developed (LBJ did it), but it doesn't look great right now. He also looks like he's carrying way too much weight for someone prone to ankle/knee issues.

I didn't mean for my post above to be a diss on Zion. I definitely don't want to discourage people from collecting him as that is not my intent. I am only speaking my personal opinion. I really think he is uniquely talented and if his body can hold up he is a special player. But the way his legs and knees are just scare me especially with all that power and force he puts on them. I really hope he does come back and can stay healthy. It's good for the sport and the hobby.

Enough about that. Luka back tonight!

That is how everyone feels. He is the most physically overwhelming prospect since Oden. Healthy he will dominate.

I haven’t purchased a pair of Jordans since the OG Black/Royal XVIII. Going to have to change that now.

Mark it! Luka will be the highest grossing shoe for the Jordan brand. He is good for the brand, sport and of course the hobby.

Take a look at the clot air Jordan fears. Luka had them on the other night, just picked up a pair. Good in person. Wore them with a suit the other night.

It will be interesting to see how fast prices climb back to normal and how many people regret not buying him during the downtime.

I had to slow down my buying for a bit but I did pick up all 3 versions of the Luka Threads dazzle (home, away, alternate) for about $20 per. I think those are pretty underrated. I hate the base versions of all Threads cards but the dazzles are actually super nice.

Yesterday set him up well, IMO.

Giannis laid a dud. LeBron and AD lost.

Embiid and Ingram killed it, but they don't have enough hobby presence to take value from the top guys. Kawhi just doesn't have the following.

If he comes out and goes right back to putting up 30 pt triple doubles, prices will be right back up
