I think KD is a top 25 all-time player. Especially if he gets another title. He will always be remembered as someone who jumped ship and joined a front running team to get a championship, but man, he is GOOD and so smooth to watch. Like Garnett on steroids with a better handle and better outside shot (but worse on defense). I only have 2-3 Durant cards in my collection. This one, with the multi-colored game-used patch and stunning holofoil and acetate surface, is a beauty!

A wide variety showed up today. A little bit of everything for the collection.

Well, clearly, these caps aren’t game worn, these rookie caps were player-worn in the draft day photo shoot. I love interesting and unique cards like this that tell a story. This has the Adidas brand logo. It is numbered out of three from his rookie year. I love collecting Victor Oladipo as I went to Indiana University (Go Hoosiers!). He was on the path to stardom as an NBA All-Star prior to his devastating quadricep injury. This allows me to collect really cool cards of his without breaking the bank.

Man, it’s been a tough summer as a Celtics fan. I understand why it had to be done, but that doesn’t make it less painful. The new collective bargaining agreement is brutal on teams, trying to keep their core together. Still, KP helped to deliver banner 18 to the Celtics. This is a pretty bad-ass rookie patch auto featuring the large chunk of the Knicks logo. I haven’t decided if I’m gonna keep it or move it now that he’s no longer a Celtic. But I wish him all the best luck in Atlanta, he truly is a unicorn.
