Hi all out there,

Please forgive me if this topic has come up before, but I am curious to see what everyone rates as the best ever design for a base/common basketball card.

I was watching a few 90’s breaks on YouTube and saw a break of 96/97 Ex 2000. I don’t know if I have seen a better base design. The card companies really went for it in the 90’s with some extraordinary great card designs (and some terrible 😝). It was a great time to collect.

Ex 2000 was a simple design with multiple technologies that made this a standout product for me. As much as I was a huge Topps Finest fan, Ex 2000 felt like the dawn of a new era in cards. It certainly didn’t feel like you were holding a mere base card in your hand!

What does everyone else think...?

Agreed. The design of the E-X cards in the 90s always looked cool.

Personally I really liked Flair Showcase.

Yup these are awesome. I also like the skybox Emotion and the EX range too.
Showing my age hahaha.
More than design...I appreciated the action shots from this era. I liked Noir 1st series as far as new base cards go. Simple but elegant
Don't like the white borders since
