Let's play a game: Where did these Warriors patches end up?

This will be fun.

Exhibit A:

Seller lists this highly coveted Ike Diogu. Nigerian FIBA legend I might add. It looks more like a parachute than a Warriors patch.

Ok, so maybe this was someone trying to make a quick buck in 2005 when he still had a chance in the NBA *spends 10 seconds on Worthpoint*

Oh wait, you mean this sold with the original patch as recent as 2016? And the original patch was better? I'd watch out for this patch in a Curry...

Let's see what else this seller has for sale.

MORE PARACHUTE LOOKING PIECES. Exhibits B, C, and D. I'm not even going to look these up on Worthpoint right now. Yuck.

I know, right? Keep an eye out for the original patches. I figure they end up in Curry cards.

Insanity... Someone should hire you as a research expert.

The good news is that LL patch size doesn't quite fill up a 2009 NT RPA window (I'll add pics later).

But we still need to watch out for these in other Curry cards. Maybe they even find a way to put them in RPA anyway. The stitching is a little different though.

I used to have one of those. I believe I sold it a couple years ago. If not, I still may have it in the "museum of cardboard and plastic"...………...

It's good to have some of this stuff around, even if scrub players. I used a couple comparable cards (not in value obviously) to determine if we might see the Diogu in a Curry NT RPA. It's possible that someone could try and stretch a patch, but I doubt it. The window on the LL is not quite big enough.

The Ronald McDonald patches got relisted.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/2005-06-EXQ...ss!33813!US!-1

I showed the seller the Worthpoint link of the original Diogu but they didn't seem to care. When I asked where he/she got the Warriors cards from they said

"I buy cards on the secondary market so I don’t know where the patches come from. You should check with Upper Deck."

Based on that response I'd say that seller is 100% in on the patch job.
