First Buzz: 2023-24 NBA Hoops basketball cards

Calm down, its Hoops.

Three months from now you will all be gobbling up more stupid Marvels cards and posting these "art" cards that you scooped up from blasters at Target and Walmart.

Hoops base cards are nice, I try to pick up something numbered each year of a few players. I appreciate the heritage that Hoops has in the hobby, and really don't want to see this any more worse off than it is now.

On Net Marvels inserts the players actually look like themselves.

Fair!

But, if that is the only thing you can say about the card, then my point is made.

The point is, there is no comparison. Not sure why it was even made.

No, that wasn't my point, but thanks for the swing and miss.

They are both crappy inserts and people are expecting something massive from Hoops. It is Hoops.

Carry on with your day.

Net Marvels is a crappy insert?

Are we at the point where even fun, simple designs from low end releases are being hated on because...Panini?

I guess everyone has their opinions.

Some people enjoy football and basketball. Some people enjoy the Kardashians, soccer or wrestling.

And some people like to repeat, "He did it himself, huh?" all across the board.

Pardon my lack of knowledge; shouldn't this be the first, officially licenced, NBA card with...."the biggest thing since sliced bread" (aka. Wemby)....in it...??!? If this is indeed, the case, why in the world wouldn't Poopnini at least have a mock-up card of him in their promotional/sales material...??!?

The top 3 picks aren’t in this.

No autos, but cards I think? Panini has 'rookie photo shoot' instant cards of Wemby in his Spurs uniform.

Arguably, it is on Net Marvels that the players should never look like themselves.

Don't worry, Jokic was picked in second round.

I don’t know, I thought I heard that the top 3 picks didn’t sign with panini, they only did the draft night cards.

Could be wrong though.

If they are similar SSP I'm sure everyone laughing will eat them up lol

[glassofwater]

We know that panini will have zero autos of wemby and scoot. I can’t believe they are not using them to promote 23-24 basketball cards

They cant have autos. They are part of the NBA PA so they should be in the product. Base cards shouldnt be a problem.

[rifleman69]

Yes, they will have base cards and the like. Just no autos.

I mean this is the same company that posted a markup of a card with two incorrect spellings in their instagram promotion for NFL Black. Incompetency top to bottom over there.

Thanks for the reply. That said,...like others made mention, I was under the impression that the exclusivity clause(s) with Wemby & Scoot pertain solely to their autograph rights...? But again; I could be completely wrong in my thinking?

If anyone has any definitive answer(s), we'd surely appreciate it! TIA.

I have an explanation for the Doncic. Considering Panini's exclusive autograph agreement they asked him which image he liked best and he as a prank chose his best friend from the Euro League days. Sleuths figure this out.

You would think if Wemby had a base card to chase, that would be advertised front and center, especially the low numbered parallels.

So, no Panini Wemby autos expected at all in any of the 23/24 releases? What will be the go to product for Wemby autos? Just assuming it's going to be something unlicensed without logos.
