^^^ Great stuff above.... love the Draft Night Auto - Status. Need it

PSA2Pac · 10-01-2023, 01:31 AM

Those are all dope but that Elite Platinum 1/1 is dopeeee!

Those cards are condition sensitive so the 9.5s across the board is amazing

I’m a sucker for signed rookie cards so I’d have to get it signed and reslabbed lol

Nice card, I like the picture they used!

drobfan8 · 10-05-2023, 09:16 PM

Jonesing to add a nice Luka but not too sure which direction to go.

Rookie year Auto or something else.

Finally there's a Flawless Anniversary for sale on eBay which has my interest.

Would also love a Rookie year Cosmic myself.

This might be the MVP season. He looks like he's in the best shape of his career. Moving better than ever and he's making quicker decisions instead of holding the ball forever. Lively is a perfect fit at center and opening up a lot.

this is your takeaway on a night where they struggled to put away the Spurs? Victor was in foul trouble all game as well. If he played 28 minutes that's a Dallas loss.

Asian62150 · 10-25-2023, 11:34 PM

It's one game. Let's pump the breaks a little. I hope Luka gets MVP this year, but like @daeve said, Wemby was in foul trouble and the Spurs aren't that great of a team.

Luka looked good though.

regularp · 10-25-2023, 11:43 PM

Spurs aren't gonna be pushovers. This site's usually pretty terrible with their takes though.

agreed, but the terrible takes here aren't the ones saying it's gonna take more than barely beating a lottery team whose best player was in foul trouble all game to win one's first mvp. Especially when guys like Jokic exist.

Good news for Dallas is Williams and Lively looked good - again the bad news is if Luka and 2 of his co-stars have good games and barely beat the baby Spurs, this is not going to be an 'MVP season'. It's possible the Spurs overachieve and if they get lucky in the health dept then maybe they compete for a play-in spot, but it's not a stretch to say there's at least 10 other teams in the west who will likely be better and Luka needs to show more to beat those teams.

To be honest, they aren't pushovers, and I thought they'd win.

But Dallas were not impressive. They were getting destroyed. SA probably should have won. Just young errors cost them and Luka closed the game like he should have.

Here's this for a take: the Spurs can be decent, the Mavs can be bad, and Luka can have a good game all at the same time.

I wasn't impressed with the Mavs but I was impressed with the Spurs and Luka.

If we're throwing out hypotheticals, If Lively starts the game then it isn't close regardless of how many minutes Wemby plays.

Mavs have to be top 4 in the west for Luka to have any shot at an MVP this season - that's probably the bigger hurdle than Luka's stats.

cardsin47 · 10-26-2023, 02:45 PM

Luka is sooooo good, he scores a triple-double the 1st game of the Season, and it’s barely newsworthy- because “of course he did!”

I wasn't implying anything else really. The formula looks something like -> mavs bad x luka good ≠ MVP.

He has to be better than Jokic at the least. Don't think he'll get snubbed twice in a row, if someone else beats him I do think it'll need to be earned this season.

TSonn · 10-27-2023, 07:00 PM

Recently completed the Mavs color match chrome chronicles 6 pack. Greens are #/25 and blues are #/99.

Pulled the Phoenix green and Chrome Chronicles blue myself.

He closed the game vs 2 teams they should beat.
