When it Rains, it Pours - Cade Prizms Galore for My Pistons PC! - rjcj2017 - 09-27-2023

Basketball bros,

Last year I went nuts on 2021-22 NBA products trying to pull Cade Cunningham's rookie-year stuff for my Pistons PC.

Other than base cards and some basic inserts, I massively struck out - no GU, no auto, no parallels, no numbered cards, etc.

So I was thrilled a couple of months ago to pull a silver prizm of Cade's second year base card in 2022-23 Select.

Since then, however, in the rare instances when I can beat the DBN to new basketball cards, all I pull are Cade prizms these days!

Here are two I've pulled in the last two blasters ... (definitely not complaining)

I really like the symmetry of these two cards, LOL

That's my kind of rain. Congrats on the nice Cade cards. Love the old school jersey. Keep it going RJ!

The Mosaic blaster was busted yesterday ... also had:

- Max Strus auto
- Jabari Smith green mosaic parallel RC
- Bennedict Mathurin base RC
- Donovan Mitchell green mosaic parallel

Overall not a bad blaster, but I'm also not in a hurry to buy any more at the low low price of $30.

Was hoping to be one and done with RCs of Paolo, Keegan Murray or Jaden Ivey, but no dice.

Did a mega of this yesterday and pulled a very nice "color match" reactive prizm RC of Jaden Ivey!

Definitely done with this product!

I really didn't even mean to start, but that's how it always goes.

You're right, the Ivey is a good stopping point, because unlike Cade last year, I finally pulled a colored parallel of the rookie I wanted this year.

It's pretty sharp with the "color match" and the old school uniform.

I'mn not a grader, either, but this is definitely one I'd send in if I were.

I also pulled another auto - Mo Bamba of the Lakers.

I saw the back of the card and the Lakers logo and got excited at first - sooooooooo many other options for great Lakers autos ...

But got Mo Bamba.

Semi-related to this post ... as mentioned I must have bought a dozen blasters and a few jumbo packs of 2021-22 Prizm a couple of years ago trying to pull a Cade Cunningham rookie for my Pistons PC.

Didn't pull a single one.

The other day I bought a marked down hanger pack from Walgreens, 20 cards for 11.99 ... and finally pulled a Cade - nothing big, just his "Emergent" insert (which I gave up on long ago and just bought each of the rookie and insert singles from the set).

Still, I at least broke the streak.

I also pulled a very nice orange cracked ice insert of LeBron, so I was very happy with the pack.

I tend to do pretty good with the Walgreens stuff for some reason.

Sounds like some nice cards. Congrats on finally pulling a Cade from Prizm and a nice Lebron.
