Why Pump Booker

His one claim to fame is a 70 point game, where his team still lost by 10... How TF does that even happen?

Lastly he finally became an all-star this year because he cried about not being one and lillard gave up his spot. All while having a 26-39 record heading into Orlando. You know the third to last team in the West... PHX...

This hype is nothing more than a social media farce. #Invest in a guy that’s going to Orlando to play 8 tune-up games and then head home... Yeah sounds like a hot hot tip.

Now I have heard that booker is really good at video games, and so perhaps he will play a lot when his season is over and maybe you can stream him on twitch and perhaps that helps values? I dnk... I’m trying to make it make sense.

I mean seriously. Someone has to speak common sense. The guy can score but there are legit 12 teams ahead of his team to even be in playoffs, let alone win anything meaningful

Speak common sense? Aren't you the guy pumping Donovan Mitchell? lol that guy is already 24 and hasn't done squat. The guy has shown very little improvement over the past 3 seasons. He has very little potential. John Wall type of career.

Same user name on eBay.

He also made the list of card trimmers:

So he has no Bookers listed and none sold in the last 90 days.

Where is he dumping these? Where is GV dumping his hoard?

The pump and dump without the dump...

Unlike most of us, GV has the ability to acquire a large amount of a single card and hold for a long time. He is still accumulating I believe. He did not post about sports cards for a few months, but apparently is back to it and many of his follower are buying up whatever he talks about. Hence why there's large surges in certain card prices.

[Deadshot]

Does anyone else find it interesting that all of the Durant's in the newest GV pic start with the 463 sequence? Like this one here from Otia Sports?

https://www.ebay.com/itm/2007-TOPPS-...QAAOSwfWFexaWX

And then 463 sequence cards are also moving through Probstein123 and Bigboyd?

Or is this all just coincidence? I'm asking for the sake of asking here, not to try and prove a point.

Phoenix does have a good young team that I think if they stay together could start making 8th seed Playoff spots in near future.

Booker is on contract until 2024 with his contract extension that just started to kick in this year. I would think had he not resigned the pump might be more legitimate as if he landed on a more established franchise or big market he could have a big rise. But now the eggs are in the Suns basket unless he is ultimately traded but I dont see that happening as he is a good piece with this new young nucleus.

Either way I'm kind of rooting for him actually as I think there is still upside. I'd like to see the Suns and T-wolves start to have real playoff aspirations even if its only one and done for a while.

He wants to sell legit ones, not buy trimmed ones

Good eye. Not surprising. If you look at the purchases and offers HERE and HERE, the saddest part are so many of the offers are from people with less than 100 feedback. Likely new people coming to the hobby and getting hosed out the gate.

Keep pumping Gary.

Good eye. I sold an Anthony Davis PSA 10 to that guy a few months back before the run-up. I googled the guy before I shipped and saw he had pics of himself with Gary V, and a pic with stacks of Giannis Prizms. If anyone wants to track their buying activity I’ll bet that card gets pumped by Gary within two months.

Pumping no. Super collecting yes and he’s 23 bud, an all star, three straight winning seasons, dunk champ, 50+ wins a year, playoff series win, and back in the hunt again this year. Meanwhile booker will be playing call of duty in 8 weeks...

I think one could argue if you insert Booker in the Jazz in direct exchange for Mitchell that everything in bold would be the exact same.

They're pretty complimentary.

Tho I get you in regards to a forward outlook based on franchise performance.

But I wouldnt be shocked if by the end Booker has a better career, and alas I wouldnt be shocked if by the end the same could be said about Mitchell.

Mitchell Slam Dunk Champ - Booker 3pt Champ
Same age
Booker nod for all star this year, Mitchell a reserve
This years stats
Booker 26/4 , Mitchell 24/4



that resigning of the contract for booker tho is most telling hobby wise, cause to me that's a big lock in with the Suns so either this young nucleus becomes "for real" or Mitchell is just going to look better for the next few years unless Booker just goes Trae Young on everyone. Tho that's kinda averse to having that talent around you...Hawks and Suns have a lot in common...

Are you guys really debating who is more trash: Mitchell vs Booker? The survey says...THEY BOTH ARE! Anyone "investing" in either at these prices...needs their heads examined.

Okay but shouldn’t an AS caliber player lead to at least one winning season or playoff birth in 5 years? I mean point being booker is kind of just a loser, and the stats are fun but as the saying goes... Winning is what matters.

My nephew won a pair of his personal shoes a few years ago at a Basketball camp. Booker signed them, it was a very cool moment caught on video. I just told him to SELL NOW before he looks up in 5 years and they are in his closet collecting dust. He is getting ready to go to College and I'm sure he can use the money. He has no sentimental value at this point and ready to make a few bucks!

Please check out the listing I created on eBay. Let me know thoughts on value, if I'm missing anything in listing to avoid pitfalls, etc.
Thanks!

So what do you consider a guy (forget that he's a nut job) like Kyrie Irving?

Dude went 78-152 in Cleveland before LeBron came back. Never had a winning season or even came close to the Playoffs.

Was he an AS caliber player?

How about Anthony Davis? He played in NO for 7 years and made the Playoffs 2 times while only have a winning record 2 times.

AS caliber player?
