Our weekend episode of Hoops and Cards is a catch all of ideas, insights, and stories for the world of Basketball Card Collectors and investors! Gary is back to talk about the "World Cup" of Basketball, some recent buys and regrets, and his approach to negotiating during Buying Season. We are still very high on Shai Gileous-Alexander, as if there was any doubt. Today's episode also covers some of the "Don'ts" of Negotiating as outlined on our HoopsandCards.com blog this week!

Life happens, even for an NBA Podcaster! In the middle of a series about "five players to watch or invest in during the offseason," our host's wife came down with colon cancer and his Dad was sent to the hospital. Gary, our podcast host, breaks free from a rough few weeks to bring us (finally) some thoughts on Basketball Buying season and two of the best young players in the NBA.

Tyrese Maxey and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander are two very familiar names to listeners of Hoops, as Gary has been personally investing in their cards for years now, and loves watching them develop as players and playoff leaders.

As always, we would love to hear from you via Instagram DM @hoopsandcards or email [email protected]!

Welcome to the first episode of our "FIVE" - Five players we are targeting during the NBA offseason in Basketball Cards, rookies, autos, and grails. Each player in this series is already playing at an All-Star level, during the first few years of his NBA career, for a team that has already made some noise in the playoffs. Gary welcomes you back with a familiar name - a point guard who should have been an Eastern Conference All-Star, whose pop counts and RPA's are fewer and harder to find. Playing in the largest market in the league, this clutch, unstoppable scorer still has a lot of upside value for collectors and investors in today's Basketball Card hobby.
