Let's toss this whole thing into the BUSTED bin.

Link? Thanks!

I'm guessing the card shown is just a mock-up, but good to know they'll be on-card.

Yeah... That image proves nothing other than he is actually signing himself on some cards - which we already knew was the case on the newer stuff. It's all just silly at this point, minds are made up.

for reference, this is the enlarged pic of Luka signing (this is the best I can do with the pic resolution):

CanadianKid · 11-30-2021, 07:22 PM

But how do we know with this enhanced and zoomed in pic that AI hasn't filled in the dark pixels of his sig making it appear as though its the classic LULU?

Sorry just watched a trial this month and have to ask.

Just have to wait and see when the cards come out what the signatures look like.

why would poopnini even address this if there wasn't anything to the story?
A female signed those lulu's.

When did Panini address this?

Guessing he means by putting out this post. Isn't this the first time Panini has shown him signing?

And that card definitely looks like a mockup image, although the mockup they're using on the product sheet is the non-Lulu with the "77" at the end. Guess we'll find out today...

edit: first one from ebay...

KhalDrogo · 12-01-2021, 09:35 AM

He’s been shown signing by Panini before.

adam711 · 12-01-2021, 10:29 AM

Is this checkmate now? Or will the new conspiracy be that Luka was told to practice signing "Lulu" by Panini for new products?

Asian62150 · 12-01-2021, 10:37 AM

Obviously Luka has had 2 years to practice "Lulu." jkjk

Again, my stance was that I have a hard time believing he signed the the short and stout Lulus that are more loopy than other versions.

This should not be an all or nothing thing because not all "Lulus" look the same.

The "Lulu" Luka signed for the Drazen's museum or the Slovenian Prez looks a lot different than the "Lulus" he signed on some 2018 sticker.

beavers · 12-01-2021, 10:41 AM

This puts it to rest IMO. (Not my card)

Do you believe that all athletes likely don't sign all their autos then?

Hopefully the NYT will update its article.

Not a mock-up.

Kuch86 · 12-01-2021, 11:36 AM

Unfortunately, this still doesn't "PROVE" anything.

There has now been mainstream exposure to his autographs... with the Times even inquiring about it.
It's in his best interests to sign some more cards LuLu.

(Certainly though this does make it MORE likely that his questionable autos are legit)

All athletes? Nah. I'm sure there are some that sign all their stuff.

Do you think that all athletes sign everything they're supposed to themselves?

My point was you can scrutinize any player's autograph and a conspiracy theory can be born.

Would you question the "short & stout" Lulu autos if this whole "Lulu" controversy never happened? If there were examples pre panini of loopy lulu's along with luka 77's?

RedMike · 12-01-2021, 03:59 PM

At this point, I don't even care about LULU.

GET THIS MAN OUT OF DALLAS and onto a team who knows how to build winners.

Just having a scribbly version and a loopy Lulu version would give me pause. It's one thing to have someone's signature evolve over the years (i.e. MJ) or even flat out change (LeBron).

I think it's healthy to question things and have discussion on them. That's a big reason for these forums. I also appreciate LUCKY's analysis videos and the amount of digging he went through to find some of the Lulu variations (like the Petrovic and President signings).

As many have said at this point, speak with your wallet and buy what you think is best for you.

I have zero loopy Lulus and zero interest in ever having one long term.
