6 low-end boxes plus jersey
- Thread starter hopalong
- Start date
Started off with 4x Free packs of Hoops 15-16
Then moved on to 14-15 Hoops. I always enjoy this. Was happy to pull 2 Road to the Finals inserts I didn't have (out of 5 in the box), one of which was Steph Curry (mild theme alert). The Kidd/Iverson artist proof was nice too. And a Jabari Parker auto. Solid start!
Next up was 15-16 Donruss, which was a first for me. Had a look at a pack some weeks ago and decided to check it out further.
I kind of like the base variants (Rebounds, Scoring etc.) that are numbered to the player averages, but it's also a bit odd as the worse a player is at a stat the harder he is to get (I pulled a O.J. Mayo Rebounds numbered to 23 or something in that pack I opened awhile back).
Decent box, though I don't know what they're normally like. Nice Westbrook die-cut to /99, and Derrick Favours patch to /25 and a Chris Mullin auto.
Then I moved on to 12-13 Past and Present. One pack to go and I was ready to call it the low-point of the break even before opening all the boxes:
Then the last pack, and this exact same thing happened earlier this year with this product, last pack and this auto!! I now have 2 of these. Seriously, this set has Kendrick Perkins and Steve Novak and I pull 2 of these:

15-16 Revolution. No auto this time (25% to get one in a box from memory). Nice KAT variant and those startburst cards are awesome (Gasol /75)
15-16 Prizm. A couple of nice Curry inserts (/350 and /99) and a Larry Nance Jr. auto. Not bad!
Finally 13-14 Crusade. This is cheap now, and it's not always pretty but it certainly has its moments. Like the on-card Hardwood Homage autos (Jamieson /199). Also another Curry insert.
Now, did that seem like there weren't any low numbered Crusade cards? Not even the die-cut to /99 which I'm sure is meant to be in every box?
Yes, there was one more...nice jersey numbered Derrick Rose.
....very very jersey numbered....
First 1 of 1 I've pulled personally. Pretty exciting! It took me a while to realize what it was because it was the top card of the pack, thankfully it seems to be in mint condition.
Jersey coming up shortly.

Jersey time. This was series 6 where the top two names are Karl Malone and Klay Thompson. I tried to open it slowly just to peek inside...it seemed dark, black even...Miami? And was that number 8? I had no idea at this point:
I even had a look at the auto but couldn't recognize it initially, jersey number 3:
Finally just pulled the trigger and had a look. If I'd been given a list of all the possible names in this and had been asked to choose....this would have come dangerously close to being my first pick, top 5 easy. I might have picked Gary Payton being a Sonics fan.
Beautiful! Very very happy with this!
