sweet deal. I wouldn't mind having one of those, too bad there's a limit on how many items you can watch

Yeah of course. Just have a lot of stuff on watch that ends next week already. And honestly haven’t had any Prizms on my watch list in a long time, but if the decently rare stuff is dropping that hard too, I might have to start scouting. I’m not a fan of the purple wave but wouldn’t mind buying back an orange ice at 1/2 the price I sold mine at

I have been buying everything I can afford, there is always that thought in the back of my mind that I am making a bad decision and the cards will continue to fall even into next season.

Dollar cost average til zero or hero.

The mantra for buying any player right now.

Do you guys think Zion will end up playing PG full time next year? I don’t see them bringing Lonzo back. I imagine this would be a giant swing to his cards in general if it’s the case.

BGS 9.5 Flux blue for $197.50 today seems like a good price - especially when a Phoenix red (also 9.5) went for $230. I was busy at work and forgot all about them.
Essentials blue PSA 8 for $85 the other day also seems decent.

Giannis-lite is my best guess. His handles are already better than 6th year Giannis. Very low turnover rate considering his usg. Just needs to shore up some sloppiness at times. Already saw long glimpses of it towards the latter half of the year. Averaged over 5 assists with a few 8 and 9 dime games sprinkled in.

Really going to depend on the coach. But Griffin made it perfectly clear last year: they want to exploit his unique skillset and put the ball in his hands.

those were pretty good deals, unfortunately not even on my radar. crazy how many auctions have been closing recently, I think there's just too much dumping for people to keep up with. I was bidding pretty conservatively and still ended up picking up some nice pieces. Market downturn sucks because it's hard to sell anything unless it's a $.99 auction, but being able to pick up rare cards at half what they used to be is pretty sweet

It's fine for him to be able to push the ball up in transition or whatever, but what Zion and Giannis both need is to have offenses with more off-ball movement that let's them catch the ball on the move, and not allow the defense to set up a wall blocking them from the paint. I liked the reverse PnR with JJ as the screener early last year, if I were designing plays for them I'd put a lot more split actions with Zion and a shooter setting picks for each other off the ball, Lonzo is the perfect guy to read where the defense is going and make the pass to the right guy.

Yeah, I put some good capital to work the past 10 days all in Zion cards. Will try to get some group shots up when the last of them arrive.

Hello.

I have noticed this thread is quite long. Is this Zion W a good player worth investing in?

Do people not like Panini Black? A PSA 10 /49 just went for under $400, and I looked back at past sales and they seem to be pretty cheap!

Cards aren’t that great and not sure if it is kind of gimmick.


So badly wanted to bid on a beautiful nt patch psa 10 tonight but after went past 4 I was out.

Have this one too, was able to get grade off a psa 10. They were pretty clean surprised you had damage. Glad they replaced it it’s a beautiful card

Was watching quite a few Zions ending today. Bought none. Prices of some cards still appear strong. Was keen on the Mosaic purple but it looked like it had an indent on his arm.

It’s everyone launching into “off-season buying”. We’re basically at the point where people are jumping the gun on normal cycles by a month or two. There’s still been some pretty good deals out there though. I’ll be interested to see if this one shows up again, hopefully graded:






It’s the 4th time it was listed, the last couple times it got shilled so I think everyone just let it go, and it went wayyyy under the trend for these. I just bought a graded one this week for $2500 which I thought was a good deal, so I didn’t want to go bidding on this one, especially since they were notorious for being damaged even in the Panini case and the whole 4th relist thing. Wonder if the other Zion auto collectors had the same line of thinking as me, or if it just slipped by

Got some nice Zions back from PSA and CSG recently. Cosmic is criminally misgraded - CSG must've seen the design flaw under the RC label as a surface issue despite PSA 10s having the same issue. I'll try for a PSA 10 when they open back up. The Cubic was also a tough grade, not sure what they're seeing on those 8.5 subs.

Sweet stash!

Love the Cosmic despite the tough luck on the grade. These are actually my favorite of the Revolution parallels despite others being more scarce. I got outbid on a PSA 9 a few months ago that I wished I would have ponied up more for.

I’m selling my Donovan Mitchell Cosmic raw right now because I was lucky enough to snag a PSA 9 for an upgrade on eBay and I don’t really care to own duplicates. I’ll probably be holding on to that one for a long time.

If you haven't seen it, Blez pulled the Spectra 1/1 Nebula Logoman. Sick card.
