My 09/10 NBA IP Thread

Graphed the Sixers yesterday. Got shut out at the hotel because the hotel security guy pushed us back. I guess a couple signed after I left for the game, but no one I really needed. After that waste of time I went to the game and got 6 there, and got to watch the pacers lose another. I will say that Jets fans are the most annoying, obnoxious group of fans I've ever seen... and that's without the alcohol.
Here's what I got, scans will be up at some point
Lou Williams 1/2
Thaddeus Young 3/3
Marreese Speights 1/1
Andre Igoudala 1/1 - 08/09 topps that he initialed with a brand new black sharpie (so it looked like it was signed in extra fine). Looks like crap.

that sucks about what happened. what happened with AI did he sign?

Hit up the western leg of the Reds caravan today. We got a little less than a hour and half early and were the first ones in line. Went very smoothly, and they were actually a couple minutes early. The three that i got were doing multiples, didnt get the other three that were there though. the worst part of the night was that i lost a dear friend in the process - my blue sharpie. had Bruce use it on the stuff signed in blue (obviously) as they didnt have blue there for some reason, and i ended up with just a sharpie cap .

for a 50/50:

nice job with bruce. they look really nice.

thanks a lot. yeah, i was kinda worried about how big he would sign, and sure enough he signed HUGE on mine and pretty big on the other

[pistonsfan9826]

how do you store your 16x20s? ive been looking to start getting them and 11x14 photos signed but i dont have enough wall space.

im an idiot and hang all of my photos. once i run out of wall space (which will be shortly), im not sure what i will do. until i hang stuff up though, i just put them in photo toploaders. im gonna go pick up a frame for the Bruce though tomorrow

[pistonsfan9826]

i bought a huge floder type thing and im putting them in there with cardboard but im trying to figure out what to do

[Sports Collector]

Yeah I frame everything to...and I shelf all the baseballs that I get...

[pistonsfan9826]

Yeah I frame everything to...and I shelf all the baseballs that I get...

i have a ton of baseballs. its impossible to have them all on my shelf. i have 40 gu/autod baseballs. i wish there was a good way to store them.

[Sports Collector]

yeah id say i have a solid 30 gu/autos

I have just about all of them in a cube and I can fit about 6 to a shelf and then a I have a "tic tac toe" shelf if you will that holds about 10

one of these days I'll post my/my dads memorabilia collection...It's pretty nice imo

Graphed the Raptors when they were in town a couple nights ago. Had it not been for needing jarrett jack this team would have been a complete waste of time. Derozan didnt travel, didnt see antoine wright or sonny weems, and rasho only signed a few. Calderon was really cool like last year. JJ was awesome just like he was when he played here last year... i think everyone there including the hotel security guard told him we'd rather him be the Pacers' point guard than tj ford lol. Great to finish off the 11x14 as well. here are scans


8x10


11x14 with tj already on it

[neverfinished94]

Graphed the Bulls at their hotel and the Pacers at the game last night. it was really cold and snowing hard at the hotel, so its a wonder none of my stuff was ruined by the snow. the bulls are a pretty bad team about signing it seemed like. i managed to get 2 roses today, 1 when he came out of the hotel and 1 when he came back from the mall. i had tyrus thomas 1-on-1 and he shot me down, but i wasnt really surprised. Pargo said no because it was too cold.
At the game the usuals were out shooting-around: rush, solo jones, luther head, tj ford (he must think he's still a part of the team... poor guy), and danny granger. I was surprised to see AJ Price and PyschoT out there as well. I spotted T on the bench, yelled his name, and he looked over at me and made eye contact so i figured he'd sign for me on his way to the locker room. nope, he completely ignored me (i was the only one that even called his name) and went into the tunnel only to sign for 3 in there. i hate to say, but what a tool.
Bulls totals:
Kirk Hinrich 1/1 - 8x10 blank, didnt want my card to get screwed up by the snow
Taj Gibson 1/3 - is he usually one per?
Derrick Rose 1/1, 1/1
Brad Miller 2/2 - signed my hinrich card, said "Oh, ****, sorry man." and signed the brad miller card. so, im now the proud owner of a brad miller-signed kirk hinrich card

Pacers Totals
Brandon Rush 1/1 - does anyone need anything signed by him? i'm running out of cards
Solo Jones 1/1 - see BRush
AJ Price 1/1
Quinn Buckner 1/1 - 8x10
