What shared the cube with that booklet card I posted yesterday? Let's see the first fifth!
2019 Contenders - Caris LaVert - First up - a base card eventually bound for Ann Arbor.
1992 Archives - Danny Ainge - There were a lot of these in here, with players given designs from their rookie year in the corresponding baseball design. I'll probably scan 'em all!
1991 Fleer - Rick Fox
2019 Hoops Winter - John Henson - A rather seasonal variant.
1992 UD International (Italian) - Manute Bol - There are players that it is always fun to pull a card of. Manute Bol certainly qualifies.
2001 UD Flight Team - Antoine Walker
1992 Fleer - Terry Davis
2019 Prizm - Jahlil Okafor - Another set that makes several appearances. An OK design - the team colours at the top are nice, but not the waves? in the corners of the image.
1989 Hoops - Mark West
1990 Fleer - Danny Ainge
2002 Finest - Robert Horry - The back of this card mentions a game from 2/14, so of course this totally goes in the 2/14 binder, but doesn't count towards the total. My binders. My rules.
2015 Complete - Josh Smith
2019 Hoops - Landry Shamet
1992 Archives - Kendall Gill - Much like in 1990, when the colours of the border just happened to match up with the team colours - the card was even better.
2019 Hoops Winter - Rodions Kurucs
2001 Fleer Greats - John Thompson - Coach card! And a legendary one as well!
2001 UD Flight Team - Courtney Alexander
1991 Hoops - Bill Laimbeer
2018 Chronicles - Wesley Matthews
2002 Finest - Joe Johnson
2019 Prizm - Alfonzo McKinnie
2013 Hoops - Matt Barnes
2000 Finest - Isaiah Rider
1992 Archives - Thurl Bailey - While it is another Archives appearance, don't overlook the greatness of those Bullets shorts.
1991 Fleer - John Bagley
2019 Hoops Winter - Willie Cauley-Stein - Alternate uni!
2015 Complete - Gerald Green
2001 UD Flight Team - Andre Miller
1994 Hoops - Tony Dumas - There's probably a reason that dunks aren't shown on cards from this angle very often - the player looks as ungraceful as possible.
1989 Hoops - Jeff Hornacek
2002 Finest - Jamal Mashburn
1990 Fleer - Ron Anderson
2013 Panini - Marcin Gortat
1992 Archives - Cliff Robinson - Keep the Archives coming!
2019 Hoops - Seth Curry
2001 UD Flight Team - Aaron McKie - This set made quite a few appearances early on in this - I like that even if the player is shooting a basic jumper, none of the photos have the player's feet touching the ground.
1995 Coll. Choice - Ken Norman
2015 Prizm - Richard Hamilton - Unlike with the Horry, there's no doubt about this one's 2/14 content. Surprisingly, this one is not a dupe, even though I do have a parallel or two of this.
2006 Hot Prospects - Darko Milicic
2013 Prestige - Tyler Zeller
2015 Complete - Amar'e Stoudemire
1998 Showcase - Terrell Brandon
1998 Showcase - Isaac Austin - Interestingly, two cards from the same set right beside each other, but because of the oddness of the Showcase release, there's two completely different designs. I think the Row 2 Austin is rarer.
2015 Complete - Thomas Robinson
2001 UD Flight Team - Latrell Sprewell
1993 UD International (Italian) - Rik Smits - Learn some Italian as the first batch ends.
Perfectly acceptable start, especially with several appearances of a fun set like Archives. That John Thompson was a pretty nice card as well.
Intrigued by the Italian cards.
ReplyDeleteI believe McKie was on the 76ers' Eastern Conference title team during the Iverson era.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the Ainge and John Thompson are the stand-outs here.
