longest shot? was that the one where he was going outta bounds on the other end of the floor and just sorta heaved it up??

Superstar5 · February 2, 2003 8:12AM

It was the end of the 3rd QTR and they just gave up a stupid foul I believe to Glenn Robinson and put him on the line with like .8 remaining on the clock. After the free throws, Mashburn took the ball out and was looking down court, but Baron got the ball right by the Hornets bench being guarded by L. Hunter and threw a football type straight shot up for the swish.

This is my favorite card, not to mention its a card of my favorite player (and yes, a BALL card is my favorite)

Card is #'d/50. I first saw this on ebay like the summer of 2001 and I made the bidding go up in the last minute from $30 to $60 and I still couldnt beat the high bidder and I was pissed and I didnt have too much money at the time so I just let the guy have it. Well as luck would have it I went to a shop in my area like in december and lo and behold, he was selling it on consignment for some guy. So I had to pay $100 but I got the card. I got a couple of runner ups that I pulled myself, a Ron Dayne #01/25 (first printed, best Badger of all time) and a Sexson #0011/2001 (pulled a card #'d to a players jersey #, yet out of all the guys it could have been I pull my favorite player)

1962 Topps Mickey Mantle. I still remember the day I walked into the Drug Fair in Bladensburg, MD dropped a nickel in the vending machine and one of the six cards I got was that Mantle.

Tim dwight Signed Iowa Jersey

Got it at the Spring Game in 1999 when he came back to watch.

joestalin · February 2, 2003 11:57AM

My 2001 heritage autograph set. I got all 24 of the players autographs that
played back in 1952 including Mays, Duke Snider, Dom Dimaggio, Robin
Roberts, Warren Spahn.....I battled a handful of guys on ebay everytime
one of these came up for auction. I must of opened about 20
cases of 01 heritage too! Anyone know what Yankee won
ROY in 1952??? Hint: It wasn't Mantle!

What is cool about this set is that the players actually signed the card..they
held the card in their hands and signed it! No sticker band-aids here. Only
200 of each card! Thats a he ll of a set!

or my mini-helmet Auto - Kevan Barlow

it was funny....
I'm a very loyal collector of Kevan Barlow. I was at a card show a few years ago & Kevan Barlow was signing, which was the whole point of going.
I had to leave before he even got to his turn to sign... I was SOOO pissed. I came with my friend, and on our way out he spotted a box of 2001 Topps Reserve & nabbed it. I'll let you guess who's mini-helmet auto he pulled. He then gave it to me a month later for my b-day, along with 2 tickets to the SJ Sharks game... on my exact birthday

Some of you guys are cheating, he said favorite....not top 5. I actually only collect basketball now, and it pains me that so little basketball is mentioned..... of course I named baseball but when I was a kid I didn't even know there were basketball cards. Then again the years I collected; there weren't.

BUD · February 2, 2003 2:17PM

my favorite piece isnt a card its a baseball autographed in 1933 by babe ruth and I own it with a COA from psa/dna
