I’m pretty sure Hart got his extension, which is great. Pelicans definitely needed to keep him, he was one of the best players on the team last year and that would have been a huge loss if they let him go.

Just got a PSA 10 for my fast break prizm blue rookie! Got a true blue optic rookie coming in soon and that looks like it’ll gem too. Zion rookie color is a major buy, I couldn’t find any at my card show

Seems like many groups I follow are prepping for the season by buying up Zion’s… Chunk’s cards seem to be moving pretty quickly

Can’t wait for October! Fat Boi takeover

Vegas has our alpha Snorlax pegged as tied for the odds-on favorite for MIP this upcoming season. Which blows my mind, considering he just came off a 27/7/4 performance.

Based on this info, I'm guessing they're pretty much locking him in as entering that next tier.

Proceed at full-mast, gentlemen.

the only player in league history to avg 27 and 60+fg% can get most improved?? i wouldn't take those odds personally as i cant see them giving him the award even if he avg 40 and 60%.

i could se him avg 35 and 60% fg along with 8 boards a game this coming year

Vegas typically knows stuff we don't. I'm guessing they have access to his full blood panels as well as recent Tinder intel tracking his physique and sexual prowess.

That said, SGA's neck n' neck. I think those who watched enough of both last year know that there's something special there.

I also think Vegas is banking on Zion taking the biggest leap defensively, which would vault him into that truly elite territory.





Buy the avocado dip.

He has been the best buy in the hobby for about the past 5 months.

I'm not sure I trust a site that can't even get a player's name right.

Zion & SGA, both of my guys! Crazy list, I wonder how they determine the odds since the award is determined by a media vote and they can just give it to whoever they feel like. Anyway,

Zion: 27 / 7 / 4 on 61% FG

SGA: 24 / 5 / 6 on 51% / 42% / 81% splits

Honestly I don't see how you make huge statistical jumps from either of those lines. If anything it'll be a big narrative push and somewhat of a make-up for the leaps they made this past year, especially if both teams improve their win totals. I miss the NBA, outside of FFB drafts this is like the worst time of year for me

Admittedly, as much as I love Zion, I’ve been buying mostly SGA this summer.

Zion and SGA are both great buys, but most improved? I think Vegas may be clueless on this one. Neither is coming from a place of statistical obscurity.

I think for many, the issue is WHAT to buy with Zion because the options are dizzying. I sold a bunch of Chronicles stuff and some base Prizm to try to snag some better Zions for the long haul on a limited budget.

I succeeded in grabbing a Mount Zion SP from Court Kings which is gorgeous and was on my want list for a while, but I’ve largely struck out on Revolution serials for a decent price which was my other major want item.

Truth. My budget makes it tough for certain Zion additions. Anything over 1K isn’t happening without selling off some other stuff. Wish I could afford an auto…those never saw a lull unfortunately.

I think this is key. Perhaps they foresee a leap into the Top 5-10 scoring list and playoff berths in their futures.

Ironically(?), Yannis took home MIP in year 3.


BBDub's third trimester finna hit everyone harder than the Roseanne reboot.
