Cavs Down Under: Kyrie/Delly PC
- Thread starter Roydngr
- Start date
OMG game 3 update!
Had time to update some PC pics after I took the morning off work for the finals lol!
First up though, gotta give love to Delly - lock down D, clutch baskets & playing as hard as we know he can in his opportune Finals starting role. Here's my top 10:
Stephen Curry became officially too expensive to collect this year and I somewhat regrettably let go of my side PC of his. On the upside I have had the opportunity to pick up some big Kyrie PC cards!
New autos (Momentum Jersey #'d):
Matching serial #'s 10/10 Irving & Davis quad patch RC's:
I was finally able to complete my 12/13 Prizm RC rainbow - it's been on top of my want list for a long time and can now cross it off; especially happy to grab them at ~20-30% of the prices they were during the 2013 Prizm Gold craze!
Bonus Prizm Downtown Bound Gold paired with my IP auto that I got after playing a pickup game with Kyrie! And another low #'d Totally Certified Green RC.
Lastly here are some new pics of my Preferred booklet rainbow, highlighting 2011's top 6 lottery picks, I'm especially stoked that TT's in there too! Jan Vesely... not so much.
Now I thought I'd completed this jersey/patch/tag set, but the chance came up to take it one step further... introducing my first unofficial cross product rookie booklet master rainbow!
And with my Curry's gone...
Uncle Drew now has a second home!
Thanks for the look and enjoy the rest of this amazing finals series!

It's been a while since this thread was updated but there are some recent additions definitely worth sharing!
One more Kyrie rookie year logo booklet from Immaculate - he's earned his spot as the league's top PG (my biased opinion only, ha!)
Finally pulled the trigger on a key piece for my PC - love these prime Silhouettes and Panini nailed the 12-13 design.
Moving onto Delly... just the one notable card which is now safely in my possession after my first attempt to own it went pear shaped. It's gone through a few owners since I lost it to an eBay scammer around two years ago and I'm just glad I have it locked into the collection.
NT Platinum RPA 2/5 (to pair nicely with my 1/5)
And finally, my main motivation for updating this thread... meeting my PC guy and Australia's newest NBA champion! After braving the morning chill with a couple of thousand other Melbourne fans I was one of those fortunate enough to get a autograph and photo with the hometown hero!
Though I caught the briefest glimpse of alarm and confusion on his face as I asked him to sign my "Delly Box"; he remained the ever obliging professional and did so without alerting security. Seriously though, I don't think the smile ever left his face and his gratitude and appreciation for his fans was evident throughout. Delly even went out to those still in line who had missed the 2 hour window to sign and pose with as many fans as possible (people started camping out in freezing conditions 8 hrs before the event began). What a champ!
Whether he stays or goes with the Cavs next season I'll be happy to remain a fan and collector of the kid from Maryborough.
Now I can only hope to have another opportunity with Kyrie so he can sign his box haha!! Thanks for the look!

Top work mate! Camping out in the bitter cold shows some real dedication! Delly seems like a top bloke who hasn't forgotten his roots. As for asking him to sign your 'Delly Box' - that would have been a priceless moment! Did he see all your top flight cards too?
Appreciate the comments guys
Haha top bloke is exactly how I'd describe him. Unfortunate to hear he's leaving the Cavs but I wish him the very best as a Buck. Sadly I didn't get a chance to open the box... probably for the best as it would have weirded him out further lol!
