Sadly, HoopsandCards is NOT at the National, but we've still got you covered!  Gary talks about the excitement and livestreams and impact of the National Card show, where you can follow along at HoopsandCards.com.  Meanwhile, we process what to do with NBA players that stepped up their games big time in the second half of the NBA season.  Are there deals to be had with star players or emerging players like SGA, Anfernee Simons, and more?  Or would it be better to wait till next year?  And finally, what's with all the Prizm Basketball wax - it's actually available on websites and shelves this year.  Is that a good thing or no?

Hoops and Cards continues our series on 4-G investing categories of Guesses, Goods, Greats, and GOATS today with a deeper look at today's NBA "Greats" and some cards to consider adding during this summer's NBA offseason.  In fact, some of the current greats could be on the move (Donovan Mitchell, Kevin Durant, or Kyrie Irving) OR getting ready to return from injury (Kawhi Leonard, Damian Lillard, Anthony Davis)!  Gary talks a bit about his own need to add graded or numbered cards from the players that are already "GREAT" who have a chance to enter the conversation about GOATS. Thank you so much for listening to Hoops and Cards!  We would love for you to give us a 5-star review on Spotify/Apple/Google and tell your sports card friends about us!  For more exclusive content (podcasts, emails, Discord and prizes) please join us over at HOOPSPLUS for just $4.99/month - less than a Taco Bell happy meal!  Here's the link - anchor.fm/hoopsandcards/subscribe In today's episode, Gary mentioned our collab with Nooffseason.com - use the passcode "hoops" for a nice discount on their premium content at nooffseason.com!

The Indiana Pacers are offering Deandre Ayton, former #1 overall draft pick, $133 Million.  The Denver Nuggets gave Nikola Jokic, the reigning 2-time Most Valuable player, a $270 million contract extension.   If the NBA's "big men" are worth so much to their teams, why are they worth so little in the Sports Card Market?  Are any of the modern centers worth investing in over the next year?  If so, what cards would you consider?  What players are full of untapped potential profits in the card market?

Hey everyone, welcome to our world of Basketball card investors and collectors!  The Basketball Card 101 series addresses starter-level issues and questions that you or your friends might have about cards.  Today, Gary talks and gets feedback about the idea of focusing on just one sport - just like our podcast usually does.  Is this wise?  Is it year-round?  What "wins and losses" can you expect throughout the year if you focus on just one sport?

Yes, we went to a card show again this weekend.  Gary tells some updates and thoughts from his buying, trading, and selling experiences and why our stories matter.  This episode may help you think through your summer strategy as a collector or buyer of sports cards - not just basketball cards!  Warning: today's episode may (or may not) include the names of several non-Basketball player types, and you may hear words like "Lamar Jackson" or "Josh Allen."  Don't be alarmed, folks.  This is always going to be a basketball card podcast, and you'll hear about Tre Jones and Kawhi Leonard before all is said and done.
