Nice to see a different sport popping up in a mailday!

So many cool cards. Loved the Brandon Jennings story and the end. That upside down T is so Panini unfortunately. :confused: I enjoyed the Grant Hill and Joe Dumars cards as well — great to see some under-appreciated Hall of Famers slipping in to the mail day. Hill was such a monster in his...

Love the look of the Parquet Players. I am always surprised that there are still '90s insert sets that pop up that I have never seen before. That all-white over-sized patch would fit right in my collection!

Not good? He has chronic knee problems, potentially in both knees, but definitely his left. He will have to be carefully managed the rest of his career. However, I highly doubt he retires. He is under contract for the next three seasons and has a $69 million player option for '28-29. I don't...

I'm certainly not trying to put together a set, but Artifacts is one of my favourite releases. I bought a box back in the day - so it can't have been expensive - and while I didn't hit anything great I still enjoyed it and have always liked the cards.

It's definitely not ideal! I don't think I will be dipping into the Leaf pool again anytime soon, but given the price the card was I figured I would give it a go and I will say I'm not disappointed in it.

Do you like the serial numbering better on the front or the back? If I was collecting for jersey number I feel like I would need to have it on the front.

I was thinking a bit about this, but from a career perspective in relation to LeBron James as he keeps on moving up the all-time stat lists. How does he rank all-time in each of the "big five" box score stats and how balanced is he across the board. This obviously can't take into account...

Another random mailday, from within NZ this time. No PC cards, but a HOF auto and some RCs of guys who may or may not ever become great players. 2024 Leaf Metal Sports Heroes - A Season to Remember Shimmer Platinum Blue #ASR-EH1 Elvin Hayes #/6 My first Leaf card! I think this is what...

He's at over 97% chance to make it. I would put that at slightly better than slim... Despite the craziness, when he gets to 20k points he will be a lock — if he isn't already. The only 20k scorers who are eligible for the Hall of Fame and are not in are Antawn Jamison (20042), Tom Chambers...

If you are asking if Kenyon Martin should be in (the answer is no) then Lowry and George are no brainers. Martin never made an all NBA team, only twice even receiving votes. Lowry's case is pretty mediocre too, but a lot better than Martin. George was an extremely good player Up until this...

Yes, the way to make it more relevant is to make it stupider. Seems to make sense...

Additionally, I would say that for a CGA graded NBA card there will be a large price reduction vs a PSA of the same grade, especially if selling outside Australia. For all its ills, PSA is the most globally recognised grading brand. Most NBA collectors outside of Australia have likely not heard...
