Haha sorry...... PC = Personal Collection. Just a short way to say the players you are collecting.
Btw...... who do you like on OKC best!? Anyone in particular? Durant I think I read above?
I really like Serge Ibaka, Reggie Jackson and of course KD
I really want to start collecting Rick I ruby... but I looked and his cards are right up there in the $$$Haha sorry...... PC = Personal Collection. Just a short way to say the players you are collecting.

Welcome to this Forum Man!
Having a PC player is fun and thats the way i would go. For me i have Gordon Hayward.
The way i look at it is....Do you like the Player? Is he good? Do you mind the Team he plays for? How expensive is he? and the most important thing for me was does he have potential
ps. In you avatar, that wouldn't happen to be a Harrison Barnes jersey, would it?

Brooooo spot on ... like you already.... I'm all about potential... I have a like for all teams ... yeah I think Reggie Jackson will be a gun just need more time ... needs to leave OKC which is a shame for me but Westbrook is just too good

welcome mate, one thing i would recommend is basing your collection and PC player when starting off around your budget. An easy way to lose intrest is to keep being outbid on your PC players cards or his harder to find cards are out of your price range. You mentioned Danny Granger i like him and hes a very underated talent, small market team will keep his prices lower as well, goodluck with whatever you choose.

As someone else suggested, go for a Reggie Jackson PC or even a Ibaka PC; both guys reasonably priced.
Thanks mate .... I really enjoy it ay... the misses isn't that keen on it she thinks its a phaseWelcome to the site Dylan
Know exactly what you mean there, when I came back to the hobby last year I had intentions of collecting D. Rose. Then saw the prices and shed a tear.
I think Serge Ibaka is the better choice since he is established. You know he will be around the league for the next 7-8 years barring injury. Reggie Jackson on the other hand may never play any meaningful minutes with Westbrook in the starting lineup and eventually be out of the league.
One way to control the player collecting addiction is to know that this is just a hobby and you don't have to have every single card. And even if you lose an auction, there will be another one coming up in the near future. Also, steer clear from the premium products and those millions of meaningless 1 of 1 printing plates and parallels (unless they are cheap of course).
