So frustrating.


It's like Zion's living his junior year at Duke. Not getting late minute touches in favor of RJ building brick houses for the homeless.

I like the numbered Chronicles stuff, some of them could end up being pretty low pop in high grades as well.

Classic example of a coach outsmarting himself once again. Running 17 different screens just to have Lonzo throw up a clunker.

Zion + Iso = Game

To be fair to Lonzo and SVG, the play was ISO BI. He got stuck and kicked it out which sort of forced Lonzo into chucking that shot. Then BI gets stuck again on the last shot. Absolutely no ability to create separation. He needs to add the 20 everyone is saying Zion needs to lose

Welp.

On the bright side, 36 6 4 with 1 TO.

Scorekeepers forgot to credit him with a block.

If you can afford it go for a low numbered hobby color of prizm/select/optic. Not from a parellel set but like an actual hobby color.

For arriving now, the original arriving now holo in the first hoops set is pure gold whereas in the "premium" it's got silver and that pure gold insert from the first set is probably grossly underrated.

I love me and can somewhat tolerate me some BI for like 3.7 quarters. It's that last 0.3 that completely obliterates my viewing enjoyment.

Yeah some nice ones in there.

Looks like the Court Kings level 2s have dropped nicely. Might try and add one of those also.

What are you looking for? Insert or base card? Something that looks cool or more of an “investment”?

CK and Revolution were nice cheapish base picks, for inserts I like the CK acetate and Certified graffiti if you want something less mainstream but look really cool, or the always popular Net Marvels is a good mix of aesthetics and resale. Hoops premium parallels are probably the best value right now simply because they’re still in high supply, but I don’t know how resale will be move forward since it’s a new product. I’d agree with Justin about #’d cards but you mentioning CK and Revolution made me think you weren’t going for anything too expensive

Nice. I had my eye on that one I just couldn’t pull the trigger on something that cheap and raw. Pics looked like it had a couple dinged corners, let me know how it looks when you get it

Yeah I asked him about it and said it was clean but we all know how that goes. Even if it isn’t gem, I’m still happy with the $350 price tag.

Ummm, to be honest, I would want a key Rookie of his, so maybe I do go a Prizm Silver. You know the probstein and such crowd is always gonna pump it at some stage.

Net Marvels is a great pick. Maybe the My House Optic in a colour also.

Ideally something in the $200 to $300 range but could push to $1k for something special.

Some good deals right now for the money that will do well in the long term IMO:

Revolution parallels (Cosmic and Impact)

Premium Chromium Chronicles serials (Esp. Phoenix/Crusade maybe flux)

Net Marvels

Select Silver

Random question, how do you guys think Chronicles Phoenix and Crusade silvers will fare in the long term? They are really affordable right now and don’t seem like bad bargain buys.

Definitely cop a revolution. Probably his best image out there.

Still have a soft spot for the Spectra numbered bass. Though I'm not sure the hobby hypebois as a whole ever will.

Was found 2 months after the game on a remote island with what appeared to be an anerexic Tom Hanks.
