This week, we dive into the MVP-level showdown between Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Nikola Jokic—how do their games compare, and what does Jokic’s insane 30-20-20 stat line mean for the MVP race?

Giannis is adding a reliable midrange jumper to his game—he’s now shooting 47% from that range, better than some of the league’s best!

In You Can Comp This, we look at a Kobe Bryant 1996 Bowman’s Best.

We also review this year’s Prizm parallel checklist and the latest updates on the Panini vs. Fanatics lawsuit.

To wrap things up, we talk about real NBA teams—not just the Lakers and Jordan. Chuck would approve: just some good old-fashioned basketball talk!

In this episode of You Can't Comp This NBA Trading Card Podcast, hosts Adam Amy and Russell Gibson take a deep dive into the role of local card stores in the hobby. With the boom in trading card interest post-COVID, more shops have opened, but challenges like high business costs and exchange rates make survival tough—especially in Australia.

The hosts discuss what makes a great in-store experience, highlighting key factors such as customer service, product variety, and the sense of community that card shops foster. They share personal experiences from local favorites like Fastbreak Trading Cards, emphasizing how these stores serve as a gateway into the broader collecting world.

Trade days, collector interactions, and shopkeepers who truly know their customers add a personal touch that online shopping can’t replicate. The episode wraps up with exciting news: Fastbreak Trading Cards will be hosting their first-ever trade day to celebrate their one-year anniversary.

If you love the nostalgia and community of card collecting, this episode is for you! Tune in for insights, personal stories, and a celebration of what makes local card shops an integral part of the hobby.

 In episode 190 of You Can’t Comp This, Adam and Russell discuss Victor Wembanyama’s season-ending injury due to a blood clot in his shoulder. They analyze the condition’s severity, comparing it to cases like Chris Bosh and Brandon Ingram, and speculate on Wemby’s long-term recovery.

The hosts dive into the implications for the San Antonio Spurs, especially after acquiring De’Aaron Fox. They humorously explore conspiracy theories about strategic tanking for a top draft pick and discuss Coach Gregg Popovich’s departure for the season.

With Wemby out, the Defensive Player of the Year race is now wide open. Candidates like Dyson Daniels, Jaren Jackson Jr., and Nikola Jokić are considered, with Daniels' steal numbers standing out.

The discussion shifts to the impact on Wemby’s card values, which have dropped significantly. Comparing this to Zion Williamson and Ja Morant, the hosts offer insights on market trends and potential buying opportunities.
