Oh I pack pulled about the same number. Sold some but then started holding and grading. I have my share of the usual suspects, but the 4 that I cannot wait to return are the best 4 copies of elite black box I could find.

Curious to see what grades you get. My Red PSA 9 is still pop 1 and the highest graded. My Blue PSA 9 is a pop 2 with one 10 out there. I was tempted before to send them back in because they both look perfect but now I'm just going to leave them as is.

If you are not in it for the long haul, you probably don't know what true generational talent looks like.

That's certainly a lot. But if they want to contend, going over the cap can be done. And will need to.

Cubes had one of the all time largest payrolls the year they won.

I still believe in the Zinger if he can be healthy. But a top level wing and Dallas are gonna be amazing. They have some nice role players to call upon to compliment Luka.

RogerGodahell · 04-24-2021, 06:59 PM

The salary cap is confusing. I don't really understand it completely and i look at them quite a bit. There's a soft cap, a hard cap, and a luxury tax. And then there's so many different loopholes and types of contracts. What counts and what doesn't count towards the cap. There's a bunch of exceptions.

It is a nightmare.

The key is to hold players Bird rights. Then when they're up for an extension, you can sign other players and then re-sign your main guy. Therefore going over the cap.

I think Dallas' true chance for a title won't probably be until LeBron retires. Unless AD breaks down. Which is likely..

No KP or Richardson tonight

RogerGodahell · 04-24-2021, 08:23 PM

WCS and Powell have got to slam it home on those plays where Luka gets double and passes it to them on the cut to the rim. WCS keeps kicking it out when he's right under the rim. He drives me nuts.

RogerGodahell · 04-24-2021, 08:31 PM

They're gonna keep double teaming until those guys make them pay

Onepocketj · 04-24-2021, 09:33 PM

Just need a good fourth quarter

RogerGodahell · 04-24-2021, 09:50 PM

That's what i was talking about. Now they're making them pay. WCS couldn't finish Powell can. They've made the adjustment.

Onepocketj · 04-24-2021, 10:01 PM

Oh baby! What a shot!

RogerGodahell · 04-24-2021, 10:05 PM

That double team worked in the first half. Lakers got torched in the second half on it.

Got em. 2 games back from the 5th seed. Ugly first half but great second half.

TSonn · 04-24-2021, 10:05 PM

Yes Luka. Just slicing and dicing to a 12 point lead from a 17 point deficit. Superstars learn and adjust throughout the game and Luka just too smart. Made a lot of mistakes in the first half but turned that into basically no mistakes in the second half and made LA's defense look silly.

Onepocketj · 04-24-2021, 10:06 PM

What a game. Down 17 and come back to win by 15
Luka with 18/13/7

bloodwings19 · 04-24-2021, 10:10 PM

Trade Zingis before he has 0 value.

mvp · 04-24-2021, 10:10 PM

Who had “Dwight Powell reignites Mavs season” in their 2020/21 season bingo?

Onepocketj · 04-24-2021, 10:35 PM

Definitely some good deals on lower end cards on Goldin.
Just picked up a 2018 Contenders Draft Picks auto BGS 9/10 for $1300 +BP.

Next to impossible, but yes please. Better team without him on the floor.

Took a break this week from watching live. 3-0. Not sure I want to come back. Lakers scored six points in the final 7:44. Crazy!

cityandcolour · 04-24-2021, 10:55 PM

Thoughts on Prizm Rookie Autos? They're sticker which isn't my favorite thing, but I may have an opportunity to pick one up.

He already has zero value with that contract.

BosPats1980 · 04-25-2021, 11:05 AM

This was the first Luka card I ever bought along with 3 Prizm Silver PSA 9s long ago. I think they are a must have for any long term collection
