Thoughts on Flawless

[ozballer23]

No sticker autos other than Lillard and all game-worn material. NT was around 70% sticker autos and the RPA's were all event-worn.

designs are still very similar

same..... but different! like these

True, I just don't find the product all that appealing, IMO the best cards are the large patch cards but I think even they would of been nicer with a solid auto but I guess them being without a signature will keep them relatively affordable.

Saw this and can't help thinking that perhaps this was supposed to be 51 points/?? 15 points, unless it was in 6 minutes really doesn't seem like much of a benchmark...

Quote from game on 14 June 1995
Houston got double-figure scoring from five players. Clyde Drexler had 15 points though he made only 4 of 13 shots, but he made up for it with nine rebounds and eight assists. Olajuwon had 15 rebounds and six assists to go with his 35 points

Sick bench mark. Shooting at 30%.

Not sure why it's so special, it was 15 points in 41minutes. The only thing I can think of is it was their game 4 win over Orlando for the championship but is that really a benchmark?

Yeh, its downright pedestrian when you put that against Kobe's 81 or even Durants 52... lol

Good one Panini.. haha

Poor Dexler, was probably thinking WTF?! when signing those haha

Prices are already tumbling. A lot of cards are samey-looking, though I do like the product. Some of the emerald patches (especially of Celtics) are stunning.

One minor thing really irks me though, and that is that so many of the patches are in upside down. I don't want to buy a card and look at it knowing it's upside down. Mostly with the nameplate pieces. $1250 a pack you should make sure people know what they're doing...

thats exactly what it was....but youre right, 15pts in 41 mins - weird one to choose... lol

 

[ozballer23]

How similar do these look? Even the font is almost the same! The prices will soon reflect this if not already.

Game 4 NBA Finals. Got his first NBA Championship ring with that effort (along with the rest of the finals and team effort). Almost had a T-D in an NBA Final game, not too bad.

My point is that Clyde has put up some big numbers in his time, to put his 15pts on a Flawless card dubbed 'Benchmarks' is a bl**dy stretch.. even if it was the Championship clincher..
Better effort was his 8 assists that game.
anyways..

I hate that the WHOLE product is based on variations. Is there any set that doesn't have variations?

1/1 and 5/5 cases both pulled. In Taiwan and Japan.. lucky buggers.

The /5 case wasn't that great really!!!

 

[West Oz Cards]

The /20 base stuff is commanding a better price than the most of the /10 /15 /20 'Greats' autos which appears to be the big dud in this product.

Funny, I actually like the Greats set more than most of the other auto sets...
