The Hobby Boards

With Russ surpassing 25K points last week, thought I'd show off my Russ PC here. Flaws and all, Russ is my 2nd favorite player off all time next to Penny. Here's the better part of my Russ collection. I have a binder full of Russ base, inserts and lower end parallels but that's probably to boring to show off lol. Here is my better stuff









I'm just missing two to have the full run of Black Velocities, which is my favorite Optic parallel. The 2019/20 and the 2022/23 ones. The Optic Greens are both numbered to 5




Numbered to 10


Graded Cards, includes my only Russ #1/1. Absolutely love the Prizm Golds plus the UD Black On Card Auto/Jersey Rookie is one of my favorites



And the holy grail of my collection. A Meigray certified Game Used Jersey from the 2011-12 season. Unlike more recent gamers, this was used the entire game, not just 1 half. Russ wore this January 14th 2012 vs the Knicks. He had 21 points, 8 assists and 8 rebounds

Lemme just say I love your collecting style. I knew we had similar likes, but this is like my dream Russ collection: beautiful patches, optic green and velocities (I personally lean pink over black though), and my biggest regret of the Russian stuff I've sold which is the ud black rookie. Just so awesome. My faves are the optoc greens and the patches. Something is still off to me when i see russ in jerseys other than OKC.

And thats not to even mention the gamer. I love game used jerseys. Anyway, enough about me. Amazing collection.

Incredible Russ collection Chris! Love that booklet & that gamer is pretty awesome!

Thank you!

Love it man! I never did get the hate for Westbrook, he's just a good all around player who plays hard.

I really like the black velocity run, that booklet is crazy cool, and I love the UD black, those are just such clean looking cards. Gamer ain't to shabby either.

Thanks for the share Chris!

Really love the selection despite not dipping into much Panini. I think my favorites are the Select gold diecut and I’ll definitely echo the UD black sentiments. Regret not picking up the Flux gold scope Penny right when that set come out, now I either see sky high listings or none at all.

Thanks for the compliments, guys!

Love the collection! That game used jersey is incredible. Admittedly I didn't enjoy Westbrook's game because of his decision making at times, you can't question how much heart he has and his commitment to the game. It's admirable and I wish more players would take after him. Hope to see some more additions this year!

Thanks! I'll be definitely on the lookout for more Russ!

Happy to add a couple Russ Galactics to the Russ PC

Got another Russ Galactic in today from 2020-21 Revolution. This is my 3rd Russ Galactic I've gotten the past two weeks

Great collection! He is truly under appreciated. Can't name too many guys in the league that play as hard as he does. Not much more you can ask of someone.
