Wouldn't you find as many silver waves as boxes you purchased?

Yes, minus the ones I sent to COMC and sold this summer.

I searched my email inbox to see COMC sales notifications (I like to do this, for torture) and learned that along with the five THT silvers I’d already sold, I had also pulled (and sold) 3 more Greens in my 18 boxes.

He horrible

[n1nesports]

Lebron, why aren't you pressing coach for your boy Tucker's minutes!?

[YayNJ]

I feel real sorry for people buying this guy on hype. Oh my days.

[calculusdork]

At least LeBron continuing to talk him up will push that return window out a few more days.

[n1nesports]

It's one thing to spend a little, I think I spent like $25 on a handful of cards, but I can't imagine dropping thousands, he still has time but I don't think it'll pan out in LA.

[Mahomie]

I haven't invested any money on THT (only have a few pack-pulled bass cards), but his story hasn't been written yet. Far too early to dismiss him.

In the short term, both AC and KCP are out with health/injury issues, so he should get some run these next couple of games.

[ninjacookies]

Naysayers gonna be in the fetal when Schroder re-injures that rookie year hairline stress fracture and THT goes full Renaissance mode on them bois.

[Mahomie]

THT and his wingspan had another nice game yesterday. Patience is a virtue.

[BabaORiley]

Sure looks good to me!

Last 2 averaging: 26.5 pts & 9 boards.

He's only 20 and it wasn't just Bron hyping him up.

Or maybe he fades away when Bron comes back...

Regardless, worth a bump after tonight.

[pingbling23]

Yeah he’s looked great. Breath of fresh air for the lakers.

[gopowergoh]

My guy balling out! I believe.
Both #/10

So glad somebody bumped this thread cause i spent a lot of time in the beginning of it trying to tell people about him and go back and see how many people thought he was a nobody and would go back to the g league. lol

Dude is absolutely balling past 3 games since he came back and hes shooting almost 50% with a perfect 100% from the free throw line as well and his 3pt shot has improved greatly.

People dont even realize this is his 3rd season and he is STILL only 20 years old!!!

He already has a championship and is younger then most of the rookies drafted this year and last year.

Before the big peak in the entire card market happened last year and his prices rose as well i sold off about $15,000 worth of his cards as i had over 1000 of his rookies.

That paid for my entire amount spent and still left me with over 400 cards of his and plenty of big cards i still have and i am glad i kept them.

I really have been high on this guy for a while on here im glad he is showing fans and people that he can be an all star caliber player like i thought he could be when i watched him in the g league.



His 1st 3 games of the season have been outstanding and it has been against GOOD teams. he went off against the Bulls and the Bucks 2 of the best teams in the east.

And hes still only 20 years old in his 3rd season....

[ninjacookies]

Triple acronym Kang back to reclaim his throne. No debate.

Yep, thought he had "it" in a game against my Longhorns a couple years ago but really started paying attention when Bron, Kawhi and co. started talking him up. Those types of guys don't really ever heap that sort of collective hype on a kid trying to just make the roster (as he was after the bubble). Happy to see him enjoying a nice stretch of leading a team - that experience, his talent and his work ethic should make him a valuable piece for years to come.

[zworykin]

So I guess I should hang onto this?

Definitely possible, although I heard some encouraging words from Vogel yesterday:

“He’s gonna be a big part of what we do, we know that,” Vogel said. “We invested in him this summer for a reason: We’ve got a strong belief in that young man and what he can do on both sides of the ball. And obviously when we get whole, we’ve got a lot of good choices, but he’s going to be a big part of it.”

I've just come to expect (and accept) all of the odd takes on BO. People will actively root against a player/team, just in hopes that an internet stranger will lose money

Totally agree! As a lifetime Laker fan I too took a flyer on THT. Mind you not to the degree which you did but irrespective, I took a lot of flack from various discord members. Who’s laughing now. THT has length, athleticism, and skill. He is the real deal.

Surprisingly not a lot of people have spoken about his defence - he is an absolute nightmare on that end of the floor.

He is also learning to be a floor general which he has picked up from Lebron.

[Aribasebal]

Does he have a Prizm RC or just Optic? I can't find it anywhere

Exactly. like i said last year in this thread he is a 5 tool player.
Still only 20 years old.

No he does not have a prizm rc.

That is another thing from a card perspective that makes him more special and valuable.

He doesnt have that many rookie cards, was left out of a lot of products.

No true prizm rookie card, so i think optic is his best base rookie followed by revolution.

No patch auto RPA's.

Only about 3 true on card auto rookie cards, optic, contenders and noir i believe as well as nt so 4.

When it comes to his cards its slim pickings.

not many high end rare #ed rookies.

as far as i know he only has ONE 2nd year card that prizm fast break auto and im not aware of him even having a 3rd year card in this years product right now.

So not many cards of his.

The only prizm rc he has is the sensational signatures. I posted the gold higher up

[Shaz]

Would it be a crazy statement to say THT run the point (with lebron out) and have Russ step into the shooting guard or even small forward role (depending on the line up)?
