2004-05 Topps Finest - I can't say i'm much of a fan of this design because there's just far too much empty space going on for my liking. Someone might be able to help me out with what this Wally Szczerbiak is called. It's numbered 03/99.
2005-06 Upper Deck - Not a bad looking Upper Deck set here. Just another simple design as usual. The Rookie Scrapbook is inserted 1:1 and looks ok but i don't like how it doesn't say anywhere on the card where the player was taken in the draft.
2005-06 Upper Deck Reflections - Really nice looking set this one. Has a similar feel to SPx. This set appears to be heavily centered around numbered parallels (much like today), mem's and auto's. The inserts are now a thing of the past. If it wasn't bad enough hitting Damon Stoudamire for the second time tonight, i now have Salim Stoudamire as well! This is a base parallel numbered 1171/1499. The Brandon Bass is a purple parallel numbered 036/250. Once again, no mention of where these players were taken in the draft!
2006-07 Upper Deck - Another typical, simple looking base design here from Upper Deck. There seems to be only subtle changes in the designs from year to year. This is however, my favourite looking Star Rookie design so far and by a long way! Love the idea of the night sky in the background... can't believe it took them so many seasons to come up with a design like this! Also, it tells you on the back where they were taken in the draft! Yay!
Finally hit another Kobe! Haven't seen much of him at all!
2006-07 Bowman Elevation - Nice looking, premium design here. Rondo is not the worst rookie i guess. Complain and you shall receive... another Kobe!
The Rondo is numbered 877/999

2006-07 Topps Finest - Not a bad looking design here and certainly much better than the other Topps Finest design from earlier tonight in my opinion. The Mardy Collins rc is a refractor... shame it's Mardy Collins! Not sure of my chances of redeeming this Draft Pick Redemption... lol. Pick 27 probably wasn't worth redeeming anyway.
