These by far are my favorite short print parallels from the prizm monopoly set

Yep they are beautiful! The Ausar looks amazing with color match.

Picked these up a while ago before his stuff really shot up. Always liked the look of these optic blues !

Nice, I was eyeing one of those viewpoint signatures myself

dizzy4111 · 02-14-2025, 08:15 PM

Are those Viewpoint on card?

Here are some of my case hits. I love the Star factor and High Voltage, very underrated. The box is mostly numbered stuff in one touch along with the stash I haven’t magged up pictured in the shelving. I’m always looking for non-autoed case hits, hit up if you have any.

Sweet looking cards. I really like the high voltage and net marvels. Let's see the rest of the stash!

kipgen · 03-05-2025, 03:43 PM

New stuff

The works in progress 1/1 is honestly a bit of a grail for me, one of my two favorite inserts from my favorite set so I saw it and basically had to get it

Just want to point out that, finally seeing the Rockets, it was my man Kneesmith who stepped up with the crunch time in-the-paint handles when Houston slipped ahead (and somehow defensed a full six inches-taller Jabari). Nembhard put the clamps on Amen as needed, though I admit your dude has athleticism.

The team as a whole has regressed, but is also the youngest team in the nba with over 50 percent of the players being 22 and under. Once the get rid of green and supplants him with an actual #1, they will make the next step.

Nomad · 03-05-2025, 05:23 PM

Absolutely. Not only that, but Sengun is a creative pointmaker who could have a Jokic ceiling. I don't think he is "poor man's" or whatever.

Yea their defense hasn't been as good the last few weeks. There was a stretch where they were clamping teams and looked like the best defense in the league. The offense has been tough to watch with FVV out also.

I agree with you about Green. Way too inconsistent. If the Suns decide to blow it up and they can replace Green with Booker or KD this offseason, ideally Booker, that would be huge.

mrmojorisin71 · 03-09-2025, 04:08 PM

Dude, I just got tickets to take my wife and one of my sons tomorrow in the lower bowl and Amen goes and gets hurt. Damn.

It’s shouldn’t be as bad as Alpis last year. Even then, had they made the playoffs Alpi would have played. I wanna see amen lock some fools up on the big stage.

kipgen · 03-13-2025, 11:59 AM

Been perusing the checklists for the 2024-25 products, pretty disappointed at the lack of Amen (not even mentioning Sengun, imagine an all-star not having his own kaboom, downtown, or color blast his fourth year in the league), but maybe the checklists were created pre his big January run and he'll get some stuff in later releases

My goal is to collect all three of the "blasts" from his rookie year (monopoly, obsidian, and spectra)

Obsidian is pretty common but the Spectra is rare + expensive

kipgen · 03-14-2025, 07:00 PM

Prizm Orange /49

Courtside Silver

Noir RPA /99

New stuff

Got the NT RPA back from BGS, got an 8.5 with strong subgrades and there aren't any higher at PSA or BGS right now so can't be too mad, plus the auto is good
