Favorite cards by team, one team at a time in alphabetical order. Share yours as well.

You guys KILLED it with the Jazz. I feel like your cards are really well themed and flow together.

The mem cards and cut auto are crazy, Daren. Each one is a PC cornerstone of a nice Jazz collection.

ECs and Row 0 are just so clean. Front and back photos side by side are really nice to see.

Frank, you've got an incredible eye for cards with great photography. I love the Malone Archives, such an awesome photo there.

Thanks but I just collect Fleer 1986-1991 until Topps got the license back and then Topps/Chrome/Archives/Heritage from 1992-current. Just so happens to be that they had decent photos lol.

tbh I'm not a fan of either Malone or Stockton as people (for different reasons obviously), but I do HoFers, and no one can deny they were both some of the best at their positions in NBA history.

Here's what I got for Utah 1988 to 2002. I don't go out of my way to pick up Stockton or Malone (or Jazz in general), but somehow I have a decent amount.

I know I have a few raw Chrome AK47 rookies and a few raw Pistol Pete cards somewhere but no photos yet I guess.

Photography on some of these is outstanding. Great stuff.

I know of Malone’s past. Never liked the guy even before I learned of his impregnating a 13 year old. What about Stockton? Why don’t you like him? He was my sister’s favorite as a kid LOL

He's an anti-vaxxer and supportive of the J6 insurrection.

My fave Kings in the PC is heavy on Mitch Richmond because he was a PC of mine as a kid and tied for my 3rd all time fave player. I have more Tiny Archibald and Chris Webber Kings I haven't got photos of yet. Also mostly 90s for me as usual.

The 1992-93 Topps Mitch Richmond is the Starting Lineup card, as I had the toy when I was a kid.

The 1992-93 Upper Deck Team MVP Holograms was a small boxed set only release that I'm fond of because my dad and I rode on his motorcycle and visited a card shop when I was like 10 and he bought me the set. Plus I love 90s UD Holograms.

The 1996-97 Stadium Club Top Crop has Reggie Miller on the other side and I love those dual side player cards, especially when both are HoFers.
The 1998-99 Topps East/West has Juwan Howard on the other side, which is a cool Fab Five pairing.

Other than that I'd say the Season's Best cards of Richmond are my faves.

[Depitydog]

Love the Richmond's he's a player that kinda rode the timeline just right to have a ton of good cards made.

[AbraCalabro]

Don't have much Sacramento, tbh.

Best I can do.

A favorite of mine, don't see this one much.


Another favorite, super nice photo and of course, Kings colors pair well with gold.


One from the first handful of EC Gold cards that really started it all for me.


Great second year card.


Another great sophomore year card.

Sick patches. That Rondo is especially nice.

Sweet Corliss cards, I remember him rocking the Kamikazes earlier on.

Topps Gold and the Top Crop are excellent.

Those patches and the kobe title threads auto are just awesome! The MWP patch is hard to take your eyes off of. THat one is a great patch set; I wish the auto versions were on card

[FrankAZHP]

I had my Knicks ready to post but have been busy the last few days and missed them. I'll do Lakers after. Here's my Knicks in my PC in order by year:

Class Acts refractor has Mourning on the other side, and the East/West has David Robinson on the other side.

[FrankAZHP]

And my Lakers-

I'm really fond of the Flair Class of 96 set with Kobe, the Fast Track from Z-Force with the fuzzy lettering and the "Cards That Never Were" for Magic Johnson creating what Topps basketball would have been with Magic Johnson in the 80s. And of course Season's Best is always top tier.

[SacKingsCards]

Always love the variety, Frank. Across eras, designs, shines, etc. Yet the consistency is still obvious, great stuff.
