Basketball One RC That Every Player Collection Should Have Besides Exquisite?

[GotGibson?]

What do you think is the one RC that every player collection should have and why? It is VERY easy to say Exquisite, so NO Exquisite!

There are a lot of choices, but I have to go with Topps Chrome.

I think every year Topps Chrome is very nice looking. Besides not being able to scan worth a crap, this to me was an easy choice. Just the basic rookie card. No auto, jersey, or serial numbering.

I would say Topps Chrome as well.

so we're pickin a non-auto, non-jersey set only?

b/c I'm all about SP Authentic RC Autos. It's always a nicely done set, and on-card. That's my choice hand-down (plus you got the patches too)

If I have to choose a non-auto, non-jersey set I'd probably go with Topps Chrome as well. I especially liked the 96-97 variations in 06-07 Chrome.

Finest RC Redemptions are a decent choice. Especially if the later picks pan out. There may not be that many in circulation of the #26, etc.

Finest redemptions are always tough to hunt down!
Love em...

I also like their 1/1 variations.

I think a player collector should always try and get a 1/1 RC

It can have an auto and/or jersey. Just no Exquisite.

SPA is always a nice one to have. But my vote goes to Finest Redemptions. They don't make updated sets anymore, so thats as close as you'll get to an XRC

 

[Steve_O_21]

I will agree with the Finest Redemptions as well, and the SPA's since we can pick an auto/jersey.

 

[ewilkens]

Then I'm definitely goin with SP Authentic.
the problem with Finest redemptions is that not every player has one. (alot of people collect 2nd round picks) At least if the RC was a Topps Exclusive they'll still have an SPA RC that's limited and contains the usually clean SPA design.

 

[Ground Support]

Topps Chrome Gold Refractor.

Hands down.

I'm a highend fan so I would go with the Ultimate Auto Patch RC /25 or Topps Photo Shoot..

Good call. Topps Chrome usually has just about every RC.

SP Authentic...

 

[Collector187]

my top 3

3. SP Authentic-(nice design all the years right now...)

2. Topps Photo Shoot Autographs... -Really liked the idea of this set

1.5 Ultimate Collection RC Autographs (but only 03/04)

1. Topps Chrome....Nothing will beat them fro 96 till now and the next 10 years

Since we're not just going with base RC's, I have to say that Topps Rookie Photoshoot is the nicest. My personal favorites for sure.
