He’s definitely not the biggest NBA bust of all time but considering the Covid prices, he’s far and away the biggest hobby bust.

The amount of money lost speculating on this guy

10k? Maybe? Less? I can’t imagine there are many buyers at any substantial price.

Just another reminder why you never ever buy the hype on “generational” players.

The only money to be made prospecting is on guys that nobody really cares about.

Wow, it wasn’t that long ago you could get a psa 8 mj fleer rookie for $500 and not everyone had one because that was a lot of money for cardboard and now days we have people still paying that much for Zion cards, amazing.

New Orleans has probably dug themselves too deep of a hole but I would be interested to see them sneak into the play-in.

They figured it out. Zion is best used off the bench

12/22 - 25 mins/24pts/9 rebounds
12/20 - 23 mins/29pts/7 rebounds

Less than 5 games outside the play-in with over 50 to play. I think they make it.

Not too long ago their OU for the season was 23 wins. That's crazy. They have no incentive for tanking, their rookies are playing better and they are getting their starting point guard in a month. Even if (when) Zion goes down again, they should easily get to 25+ wins.

Looks like around 175, but last one at auction did only 138 it looks like.

Sold mine during the gold rush for ab 2K; never looked back.

PSA is offering 95.91 for them. Pop 1856

Could be a nice card to grab soon for all of the memories attached

He’s been putting up numbers in limited minutes coming back. Still hope he can stay healthy so can see what we all hoped he could be.

In an odd way this new system kind of works. Staggering his minutes with BaeBey then having them simultaneously finish in the 4th has been really effective.

I still don't know what to make of Murphy. He's good, but he still makes his life more difficult than it should be by taking Trae type shots from 25 feet.

And the center position is super weird. I want to like Queen but he's a turnstile on defense and Missi Elliot's just super limited in what he can do offensively.


Still pretty hilarious the bulk of the team's cap is tied up in dudes coming off the bench.

Bae & Oprah at the wings and TM starting at the 2 should have been the format all along. Even when Herb's healthy, he's a rollercoaster and far too limited offensively.

Yeah they have a massive defensive issue, but that's not what we're here for.
