Since I'm done with cards I have a new hobby (sort of). You may recall my previous thread revealing my Butler and Sefolosha game-worn jerseys. Well, I have now doubled my collection of gamers...
First up, the cheapest one that I didn't really intend to win but I don't mind having:
(had 19pts, 7reb against Dwight Howard and the Magic)
Then a nice-looking jersey of an All-Star (who is either surprisingly fat or just likes it a bit baggy...):
I watched the first two televised games (over here) of this season and in the second one I wasn't particularly supportive of this player, thinking that he should be coming off the bench, and he didn't have a great game, but this is a pretty historical jersey to me.
The debut jersey:
And then this one that I didn't think looked that nice, until I got it in person. Man, it's a beauty.
A 27-point, 5-reb, 3-ast game helping send the Lakers to their second straight loss to start the season:
Two of these jerseys touched Kobe, one touched Dwight and the other touched some Nets for a few minutes in a blowout...
So I have the Clippers debut jersey for Butler and the Bulls debut jersey for Hamilton, plus jerseys of All-Star and high-scoring players. I'm pretty happy.
Plus a massive thank you to Rob for babysitting these for me. We tried to save on shipping/taxes by having them sent to him. Didn't really work out that well, but he was very helpful and trustworthy with these.
Nothing wrong with Scola, bit soft and he does tend to flop but a productive player anyway! Joe Johnson can flat out score and always liked Rip Hamilton and his movement without the ball and his mid range game. Thornton is one of the new breed and I like his game. Awesome mailday - really need to get more into memorabilia!
So I finally get my shout out ... Thought It would be a couple paragraphs, maybe a full page or two ... but I suppose I'll live with It.
I gotta say, I like the Rockets & Bulls jerseys the best. Quite nice ! ... So no more cards for you ? Good luck bidding with the rich people G ... I had a blast till I ran outta money ...
Beautiful jerseys though ... I should of signed them all for you.
Depends what jtnbafan is willing to pay for them.... the superstars are all won by one mega-rich dude. Paid $10-15k for Lebron and Kobe etc. Dude spent over $150,000 getting all the All-Star jerseys...
So when you can get decent players despite him, it's a bit of a victory
Can you wash them or something??? Seriously tho - in terms of memorabilia you cant get any better than game worn stuff. Big fan of the Rip with the Christmas day snowflake on it!!!
I don't "have to have it" so if you want it and can afford to, you can buy it from me. Just wish I'd gotten another Bulls jersey because they are really nice...
