The thing that’s frustrating for me is they play so good against the upper echelon teams but struggle with the bottom feeder teams.

Zion is so impressive to watch!

Downright scary he is just 20 years old!

Sometimes it’s nice to be dead wrong. Pleasantly surprised tonight!

Mitchell is one of my guys as well and I love watching him and the Jazz play, but the Pelicans need wins infinitely more than Utah right now.

On a card side note: Zion may end up with the biggest offseason buying frenzy since Luka.

Thanks again for the contact info. Of course mine arrived at Panini right before the state froze over, so I was without confirmation that it was received for weeks. Finally got notification of a new one being sent out though!

Big Zion pickup. I've wanted one of these for a while, one finally showed up at a decent price.

Love it! Just got a chance to watch through the game early this morning as I started my work day and couldn't believe they snuck out of there with a win. Really looked like they were going to cough it up at the end, but nice to see Zion clutch out a couple free throws at the end to bury them.

26/10 against Gobert and the Jazz is fantastic. I try to not get too over-zealous of my fanhood to Zion, so I couldn't help but be a bit frustrated by some of his bad turnovers and quiet 4th quarter, but having a 20 year old put up that kind of game against the league's best is amazing.

Much like we discussed in last year's Zion thread, there are still times he looks very much like a rookie out there and makes some silly mistakes. But that almost makes me more excited knowing he's THIS good and still not close to a finished product.

Also, I have to give some big credit to Lonzo last night... Dude was amazing and has bounced back recently from some of his low points a few weeks ago. Last night was the version of Lonzo I wish we could get consistently, because it absolutely changes the team. That + the Zion/BI combo can absolutely cause problems for every team they face.

Been buying on the dip, his numbered stuff, no brainer. Plus he so fun to watch... he is the real deal. I cannot believe how many rookie cards panini made of him, it is nuts but I cannot say I blame them. they sold & marketed near perfectly!

Yeah, with the vast amount of his RC’s/ The numbered, gold/blue/animal themed parallels and the Courtside’s will be his most chased non autograph/patch RC in a couple of years.

I'm telling you... Prizm BASS variations are so so undervalued.

Disclaimer: I have 5-6, so I'm full. Not selling.

The variation and the Ja variation are on my want list. I'll probably move my Zion Next Day auto at some point to pick one or both up.

They're almost all gone. Makes sense with 20-21 coming up next week, I tried to scoop up what I could last month but availability has always been low. Still, I feel like when people see the prices of LaMelo & Co, it'll cause the previous years to get a bump. Revolution was one of the only 19-20 products that came out before the boom so they never really got blown up by the new crowd. Should be interesting to see how they react to it

I hesitated on that base cubic 9.5 last week and missed it. Bummed me out.

Nailed it.

I think Revolution is going to appreciate really well over the years, especially the serial numbered parallels with continuity across the sets. Cosmic is far and away my favorite for the money, but with Impacts being serial numbered now, that certainly helps.

I still think people are sleeping on Chronicles serial numbered chrome color stuff. When the well starts running dry, these are going to get a nice bump when the good stuff (Phoenix/Crusade) come up for auction.

His stuff will go absolutely atomic in the offseason so I would be snagging whatever catches your eye sooner rather than later.

Is there an order of rareness for the non-numbered parallels of Revolution? The Groove, Fractal, Chinese New Year, Astro. Or are those all similarly common?

Fractal, then Groove, then Astro. I’m not well versed on CNY other than the fact that the Emerald is /88. Those were the only ones I ever searched for out of CNY to be honest.

SCA did an analysis a while back but comparing Hobby only (not CNY). I tried looking at total subs of CNY vs Hobby for Zion / Luka / Tatum to compare years and it's inconclusive. Zion has more Astro graded than CNY, Luka has 2x more CNY graded than Astro, and Tatum barely has any Revolution graded at all.
