What are the best cards of the 00's (anything goes)

[drobfan8]

Hi everybody. I think most of us are all well aware of the top 90's cards by now. I would like to know your opinions on the best cards to go after from the 00's. Now there is ALOT of talk about how the 90's were the golden era. I totally agree, for now. But I actually think the 00's may take over some day. You get your Lebrons, Kobes and Durants etc. Plus alot of us older guys favourite players from the 90's (Jordan, D. Rob, Pippen, Stockton, etc) and some for the real old school guys with the Birds, Magics, Kareems and Russells. Sure there is too much game worn rubbish. But there are 10 crap (common) 90's inserts for every 1 good one also.

So, I'd like to see some pics of what you think are must haves in your pc collection before the prices go all PMG on us. Obviously some of the stuff will already be pricey, but what may be a touch out of reach pricewise right now, may be totally out of reach in 5-10 years time.

Please keep it to 3 cards max you'd like to draw attention to. Can be autos, parallels, whatever you like. Something with a high player content would be preferred but not necessary.

I'll get us under way with something light.

A nice rookie year auto from 04/05 Exquisite of Josh Smith /25

Looking forward to seeing some hidden gems.

well when it comes to the 00's mate it's got to be 07

2004-05 Upper Deck flight Team Rainbow

i dont actually own one but its high on my want list. i got almost a full set of the normal flight team inserts and i can tell you they are cool enough, no doubt the Rainbow variants would be killer in hand.

and you gotta have a Rookie Patch auto from Exquisites very first release, preferably a big name like lebron wade melo, but you can find many fan favourites at a price that suits most budgets like my mo will -

Sheesh, what a start. Those Chirographys are somethin else. They look a little undervalued after just checking some completed sales.

Gotta love the 03/04 Exquisite. 07/08 Had some pretty good stuff, hence my sig.

And one of my all time favourite sets...

06/07 E-X Credentials

03-04 Ultimate Collection is on of my favorite auto sets. Nice simple and clean.

Also really like 07-08 Ultimate Collection

Oops, this one

Have to agree with Nick! Nothing better than the 03-04 LL! Here are my faves from that era!

Spx has always been always been one of my favorite sets!

A few from 03-04

Some from early 00's

I loved the UD glass set when first released in 03-04 and the Autofocus cards that stemmed from it afterwards!

Ultimate has always been one of the best sets released!

SP Game used

And as first mentioned, what I think is the best set of all time! 03-04 Limited Logos

[ozballer23]

Does a 03-04 exquisite logoman /1 exist???

I don't recall seeing one....

 

[Verse1]

Does a 03-04 exquisite logoman /1 exist???

There is a MJ/Lebron dual I believe non auto, posibly another 1 or 2 dual logoman cards of other players in the set but I can't recall

 

[ozballer23]

Does a 03-04 exquisite logoman /1 exist???

According to http://www.sportscardradio.com/inde...-04-upper-deck-exquisite-basketball-checklist-
