 Hi everyone, happy Sunday. I'm Joe coming at you with 2021 22 elite basketball Panini elite basketball six box half case pick your team number nine So nine and ten are from the same case and all card shit This just dropped on Friday. We're finally starting to Dive into the brand-new draft with the latest draft class. We've been working on last year for quite a while And we did 2020 2021 flawless basketball, which generally represents the last major basketball release of that class and now we can start diving into 2122 so big thanks to this group big things to Nathan Jones Grabbing a big chunk of teams at the end Thanks, everyone else of course for grabbing their teams as well Second half is already loaded up if you missed out on the first half All right, so now you can see the elite basketball sticker Now usually these the 2021 We're the new draft class Let's put it this way. Let's go backwards really quick Usually flawless basketball ends up releasing in the fall fall winter and then we start seeing the the current draft class But I think with supply chain issues and the pandemic and all this sort of stuff Push the whole counter around a little bit made it a little goofy, but I in a way I think that's almost a good thing Because now we've already seen a lot of these rookies in action, which I think is great Which makes it easier for us to To know who we want to chase All right, so there's you can kind of see the Two four six boxes there two four six boxes on the right side over there. We're gonna select a die. Let's select that one Match the color of the boxes one two three for the left six four five six for the right six And it's four one two three four five six of these that we will do Next time probably some point tomorrow, so you can kind of see Ten marked on all those boxes so we all know they're from the same case So over here for now These are the six boxes. We'll be doing right now Good luck everybody. I think I let's Let's load up the 2021 MBA draft Just so I can have that info on hand And just in case I don't think we're gonna need it, but let's pull up the group rate checklist As well, we'll be going by that And I've dropped that checklist link into the chat for those of you who want to Check that out. All right, so thank you And good luck everybody So all-star weekend is finally over Everything's done Steph I think LeBron made the game-winning shot for his all-star team Steph Curry won the MVP Now I think we're in the We're already past the halfway point of the season, but now we're past the ceremonial halfway point of the season We'll go push onward to the end of the season and then the playoffs It'll be an interesting. I'm a Lakers fan. It'll be interesting to see How my Lakers look without any Davis for a good chunk of time See if they can squeeze into a playoff spot. I know it's a little Hard to see the name just because they're They reflect so easily, but Nice angle there And of course all card ship There's Trey Man 628 out of 999 for okc There's Luca Doncic to 80 out of 99 right here primary colors See if we can find a Trey Man's teammate Josh Giddy's been playing And we've got rookie yearbook his other teammate Jeremiah Robinson Earl 2 out of 10 Rookie autograph for okc that'll be for Nathan Jones We got Josh Christopher for the Rock it's 29 out of 999 It's Jones with Houston, let's see if we can find his teammate as well Donovan Mitchell die cut James Harden 99 still Nets edition here it did Chris I think the main video will have the link to the break credit video Sorry about that Luke Nard Impact impressions. He had a nice little Performance in the three-point contest Jones is not convinced that Giddy is in this set. Is he on the checklist at least? Yeah, he's allegedly on the checklist. He's got Pen pals autographs rookie yearbook autographs base rookies next up inserts, so Supposed to be here somewhere. All right, so Luke Nard Clippers. That's gonna go to Jones. That was the auto Xbox maybe this will be the break Or we pull some giddy So basketball fans if you're listening, who do we like in this draft class? Who's been impressing you so far? Has Kate Kate Cunningham has maybe had a slow start or is he doing better now Jalen Green? I know he's been playing well. I mean definitely Definitely has some ups has some fun plays good monster dunks Evan Mobley. I know he's been playing well Scotty Barnes has been great for the Raptors Not sure if I've heard too much about Jalen Suggs for the magic Josh giddy. I'm sure Hollywood. He will be giddy if we get giddy. Josh giddy. I know he's been playing well for okc Jonathan Kaminga has been getting minutes for the war. I think Franz Wagner has been playing well, right? Davion Mitchell solid And I think after that I've not really heard too much from the other first rounders That's about nine or nine or so picks in for Jones giddy and Mobley are the seems to be the standouts thus far and Scotty Barnes Yeah, I think we've got some Raptors fans in our that are regulars with us and Yeah, they're happy. They're happy about the Scotty Barnes as well Yeah, this I guess it is tough K. K. Cunningham being on the Christmas Jones is biased, but Bones Highland for Denver. It's fun to watch. I feel like we've got a pretty even draft Excuse me. Maybe not um Maybe not even but like sort of a well-balanced draft class, which I think is kind of nice So it's not just like one or two teams that are like super expensive and those are all the all the players that we're chasing You know, so I I like that because I think that That doesn't make one team too expensive another team too cheap so so far I kind of like the Like the balance a little bit Hollywood things Hollywood say Mobley best There's Alperin Sangoon 857 out of 999 like with last year's product it was like Charlotte and Minnesota were just so far and away the more more expensive teams. I guess you still had like You know warriors Kings, you know, there's some some other teams that were a nice some nice mid-range teams, but Like the top level rookies kind of balance each other out a little bit, which I think is good Obviously that that can change as as the months go on but at least for now That's what we're looking at 31 out of 70 Julius Randall die-cut and a Sean Kemp impact impressions autograph That's gonna go to the former Super Sonic will go to okc Jones with that one 554 out of 999 Joan Joan Joe wise camp for the Spurs That'll be for Matt Daniels and San Antonio Spellbound Yanis It's being a lot of cards to get onto to combo right There's a fox in the bit the Fox in the box the Aaron Fox 99 and there's Doug McDermott impact impressions spurs Teach me how to Dougie Matt Daniels with the Spurs All right next box Was at 16 threes for Steph Curry in the all-star game wild All right another box. Good luck everyone. Thank you Oh Just two regular orange cards in a row Spellbound John Moran you think these you think these puzzle piece together you think the oh can fit right there Is that how it works you think or no? anyway Minsoo if you want to embark on that that journey let us know Minsoo has the gris Ooh and a Lonnie Walker the fourth one of one Nice that'll be for Matt Daniels and the Spurs out of five and under get the world famous train whistle All aboard the Big Hit Express It's THT to 95 Love to see THT kind of come out firing after the all-star break We're gonna like is we're gonna need him.

This is for Arthur King and the Kings Arthur's Kings card here another rookie card Few and far between All right, there's Trey Murphy the third Pelicans Minsoo and this thing gris is also for Minsoo. That's a Santi Aldama and we got Sengun Alperin Rockets rookie yearbook autograph for for Jones one of his many last-bought mojo teams see a Chris Broussard floating this like ridiculous I mean, I don't know. I don't know why I'm giving him any kind of attention at all, but it's just so ridiculous had some crazy idea that At the Lakers would be able to trade Anthony Davis For Bama to bio and Jimmy Butler Not sure why Miami would do that. Well, no, his his his argument was don't give him the clicks but his argument was Was that Pat Riley like superstars? Something like that Silly, who's the NBA startup again? Looks like It's like they'll get You know a good chunk of time off actually They're back Thursday February 24th. So this Thursday Our first national TV game will be Boston at Brooklyn, which I think should be Pretty interesting. I feel like there's John Wall wonder if the Lakers should have made the move I feel like Boston going into the break was playing some hot basketball So hopefully they didn't lose too much steam going there Brooklyn I Think Ben Simmons should be is that his debut? I know I feel like Seth Curry has been a great addition to that To that team. I was surprised at the Sixers. Let him go. There's Joe wise camp again to 999 Another spur for Matt This Thursday the late TNT game will be Golden State at Portland, I'm sure the schedulers were expecting a little more from that when they made that Here is a LeBron James spellbound 64 out of 99 And we've got Alvin Hayes for the old Washington bullets Impact impressions were so of course go to the wizards Nathan, excuse me throat's drying out a little bit a little lozenge Apologies if it sounds like I'm talking with a marble in my mouth because I am essentially this Alperin again for the Rockets For Nathan You're Steph Curry Who is your all-star MVP? I think we've got a teammate coming up for him current team it It is a current teammate. That's Jonathan coming up. Oh It's one of those next up inserts. It's pretty cool. That's for Shawn and the Warriors This one's not numbered You know, I guess you're gonna build this set without other LeBron James. You have to find the other ones are numbered. Whoa Who's a redemption? Any guesses for bragging rights? Logan guessing Mowgli and Giddy with absolutely no skin and that guess Yeah, Logan doesn't have any skin that Mowgli guess either All right, good luck everybody we got passing the torch signatures could be anybody I feel like J A N M Jane James James Whoa James Bonite and Ray Allen James Bonite is a Hornet So then where's that? What's that Ray Allen? Ray Allen passing the torch Thunder oh, so that must be Seattle edition of Ray Allen. Let me just double-check to make sure that's right. I Don't think he has any other passing the torch autographs Yeah, actually he doesn't because he has He's only has one card in the set He has a title two card in the set tidal waves insert for the Celtics and then the passing the torch auto So that's a randomizer between Charlotte to be Brian Watford and The Thunder which will be Nathan Jones So we'll do that randomizer at the end one happy person one sad person How do I feel about LeBron leaving the Lakers when his contract is up? I mean that I mean he's a free agent That's that's what he's allowed to do There's John Morant To 88 I think what he really wants Is to play with his son? So I feel like he will He will go right wherever someone gives him like a one-year deal and then wait to see Kind of wait to see who's Who's gonna get Ronnie and Then go from there. I think that's kind of been the Kind of what I think everyone in LA kind of expected There's Cameron Thomas in 99 So I think he's just gonna position himself. However But I think I don't think brawny is gonna be able to be drafted until Two years, so that still leaves like a year After LeBron James is one year with the Lakers one more year with the Lakers This upcoming year, right? Getting like years and seasons mixed up But you know I'm talking about yeah, I think I mean that would that was why the Lakers kind of mortgage the future LeBron came Move mountains to try to get his impact get Anthony Davis Got lucky. He was healthy, you know for that one year, you know weird Pandemic year got the championship. That's it. Thank you LeBron. I appreciate it. There's Michael Ray Richardson Uh Shang with the Knicks. I know it's the typo. Yeah, Joe P Imagine if your sons won the title you'd be so happy about it. So relax Joe P Sometimes I think you hate the Lakers more than you love the Suns Which is I feel like you should reverse that I think you're so used to your sons being terrible You don't know how to love your sons the Phoenix Suns that is Joe P doesn't have a son yet Um So you should work on that Joe you hate the Lakers more than you love the Suns Think about that. It's weird, right? All right, you take it and Josh Jalen is your rookie yearbook autograph Logan to be fair What if the jazz Oh, by the way, Logan Joe P was looking for you earlier.

What's that? Who is that guy again? Joe P in the playoffs the Suns in five or Suns in Suns in whatever dude. What are they? What's he doing? Is he still like a local celebrity? Is he doing commercials for local car dealerships? Maybe was it for Suns in four? Haven't heard anything about it since did he not leverage this could have been a big branding opportunity for him He's got to have an Instagram that's blessed blowing up. Oh Sorry Jones Jones is Denver guy You and Joe P will get along. He's a Phoenix Suns guy Did he sell some shirts with barstool gotta get a little payday out of that You know like all these news outlets probably using that footage your your likeness For their game.
