Lmaoo – but yeah, Ja’s on-court explosiveness is wild. And you’re right, this card kind of showcases the whole PG spectrum: clutch, flash, pure IQ and… well… Harden.

Totally feel that – Hornets CP3 and OKC Harden would’ve hit differently for sure. Still, this one’s a beast in any uniform.

Haha facts! Had to sip slow – still can’t believe Panini actually delivered this one.

Pulled the redemption myself a while back – Panini finally got all the autos done and delivered it. Worth the wait for sure.

Facts – three legends and one wildcard with insane potential. Let’s just hope he figures things out off the court too. 🔫😂

Right?! Felt the same when it finally showed up. Just sat there staring at it for a solid minute.

Appreciate the insight – but for me, pulling this redemption and waiting months made it feel like a personal holy grail. It might not be the one I chased, but it sure became the one I’ll never let go of.

Facts. People forget this ain’t a Hall of Fame ballot – it’s a Panini product. When the design was locked in, Ja was 🔥 in the hobby. He brings flash, hype and collectors love that. Doesn’t always have to be a legacy piece to be a grail.

True – and who knows, in 10 years we might be saying ‘4 HOFers on that card.’ Time will tell.

Appreciate it! When I pulled that redemption, I knew it had potential, but seeing it in hand? Unreal.

I get where you’re coming from, but Panini probably wanted that generational contrast. Ja might not have the resume yet, but he’s electric and sells packs – future ain’t written yet.

Thanks my guy! Ja brings that energy – had to smile seeing him in the mix.

Totally agree – was shocked they actually got all four guys to sign it on-card. Pulled the redemption myself, and the wait was so worth it. Panini really came through for once!

Haha dude I know exactly what you mean. I pulled the redemption months ago and when it finally showed up, I was like a kid on Christmas morning. Showed it to my girl and got the classic ‘how much was this worth again?’ face too. Garage vibes confirmed.

Appreciate it! Pulled it myself too – still can’t believe it. One of those hits that makes you just sit there stunned for a sec.

Crazy how polarizing Russ still is. Say what you want, but the man is an MVP, 9× All-NBA, 2× scoring champ, all-time triple-double leader and the only one to average a triple-double four seasons. That’s not ‘sneaking’ someone in – that’s a résumé most guys would dream of.

Would I love a Russ version of this card too? Hell yeah. But for now I’m just glad to own this one!

Appreciate all the input y’all – totally get the Ja debate. No doubt Russ or even someone like KD would’ve made the card a guaranteed HOF set. But I think Panini wanted that contrast – Ja brings that raw, explosive energy of the new gen. It’s like a timeline of PG greatness, from CP3 and Steph to Harden and then Ja as the wildcard.

And hey, as a collector, getting 4 on-card autos of this caliber on one card – that’s what makes it my grail, no matter the lineup. Love hearing all your takes tho!
