Probably the worst possible timing for this lower tier Aussie mailday, but there are still a handful of nice cards and one absolute ripper (which I'll obviously save for last).
To get things kicked off, a random green Joe Ingles. Note to Brian Goorjian, if you need playmaking and 3 point shooting to boost a stifled offense, try putting this guy in the game!
2019-20 Panini Mosaic Green Prizm
Now let's build this mailday up to a trot and let's "Giddey up"...
2021 Skybox Metal Universe Champions - love the metal finish almost as much as acetate, maybe more?!
2022 Panini Father's Day - Rookies RC - under-rated offering imo given the likely print runs.
2021-22 Panini Prizm RC (took an inordinate amount of time to find a well centred version, probably has a surface issue - lol)
Love him or hate him, there's no doubt who would have had first shot at covering the Antetokounmpos, Lebrons and Durants at the Olmpics if he were to ever suit up (and shut up). Mr Ben Simmons.
2016-17 Panini Donruss RC - so much hype, so much promise....
2021-22 Panini Prizm - Global Reach Silver Prizm - really nice looking card in the prizm parallel
2021-22 Panini Prizm - Fireworks Silver Prizm - Przim aren't known for their inserts, but I;ve always liekd the fireworks, really nice in the prizm finish.
A random assortment of 19-20 and 20-21 Illusions Acetate inserts - what you're looking at here is probably the result of some half ass*d rainbow chasing... lol I do like me some acetate finishes though!
Especting bigger things and a bigger role from the new Charlotte Hornet, Josh Green
2020-21 Panini Select Retail Blue Prizm Concourse RC - not as common as you'd have initially thought.
2020-21 Panini Select Red White Orange Shimmer Prizm Concourse RC
2020-21 Panini Select Silver Prizm Concourse RC
2020-21 Panini Select Scope Prizm Concourse RC
2020-21 Panini Select Red White Orange Shimmer Prizm Premier RC
2020-21 Panini Select Silver Prizm Premier RC
2020-21 Panini Select Courtside RC - Courtsides not reveiving the love they deserve in most instances, get onto it peeps!
2020-21 Panini Select Red White Orange Shimmer Prizm Courtside RC
2022-23 Panini Chronicles Draft Picks - Absolute Tools of the Trade - and beleive it or not one that is actually player worn / used, not ideal but a step up from the norm these days.
Speaking of courtsides, throwing it back to the days when Select was hobby elxclusive and this dude (Dante Exum) was the no 5 overall pick. I love the way he goes all out in attacking the rim.
2014-15 Panini Select Purple and White Prizm Courtside RC
Another Boomer of the future with his lock down D, actually does a really nice job defending on the ball. Just needs a handle and some offense, preferably a 3 point shot and he'll have a 12 year careers as a 3 and D guy. Dyson Daniels.
2022-23 Panini Select Silver Prizm Premier RC
2022-23 Leaf Optichrome Purple Prismatic Rookie #7/8 - A mouthful and an eyesore at the same time! Nice finish on the card though.
When is a Boomer not a Boomer? When he gets shafted by the selection committee... Probably my favourite Boomers squad member, Matisse Thybulle.
2019-20 Panini NBA Hoops Premium Stock Silver Lazer Prizm RC - low end or otherwise, I likes what I see from Hoops Premium.
2019-20 Panini Donruss Optic Blue Velocity Prizm RC - clour matchish is a nice look and finish.
2019-20 Panini Prizm Red White & Blue Prizm RC - another colour matchish proposition. Just looks 'clean'.
2019-20 Panini Chronicles Elite Black Box #/249 RC - I'm just going to say it, I like the variety in Chronicles. For a lowe tier set - it punches way above its weight.
2019-20 Panini Chronicles Majestic #/249 RC
2019-20 Panini Donruss Optic Signature Series
2019-20 Panini Mosaic RC - CSG9
2019-20 Panini Prizm Silver Prizm RC - BGS8.5 - only downgraded by the surface, looks good to me though no obvious print lines, fingerprints or indentations.
Now for something from the Delly counter - saving the best card for last.
2019-20 Panini NBA Hoops Premium Stock Red Shimmer Prizm #8 / 88 - a truly auspicious card. If this was Jeremy Lin instead it'd be worth thousands!
2015-16 Panini Preferred Silhouettes Prime #20/21 - BOOM! Finally a card worth looking at! ..and in case you were wondering, game worn it is! As it shoudl be.
Well thanks for sticking with me this long, not a lot of big time cards. BUt at least it;s on topic with what we're all interested in at the moment.
Comments and likes much appreciated, nobody is going to write and post if nobody is going to look and read! Vive le mailday section!
