🚨 Michael Jordan returns to NBC? The GOAT is stepping back into the spotlight — but not on the court. We unpack what this broadcasting bombshell means.

• The Celtics win without him — how does that affect his card market?
• Jalen Brunson’s 1/1 heats up the hobby
• Card Ladder insights and what’s trending

📈 NBA Playoffs:

• Pacers’ incredible run — and Andrew Nembhard’s historic 3-point percentage
• Nuggets vs OKC Game 7
• Jokic’s dominance and stat line greatness

🎙️ Side stories:

• Jordan Patch Auto from Chronology resurfaces

• Players showing clear awareness of gambling lines
• Could the offseason bring unexpected trades?

In this week’s Timeless Moments episode, Russell and Adam dive deep into the evolution of Mosaic basketball cards — from its humble beginnings as a Prism parallel to the fully-fledged product we know today.

We look at the original 2014–15 Mosaic parallels and how they morphed over the years, touching on sticker autos, rookie cards with missing logos, and the design consistency (or lack thereof) from 2016 through 2019.

Russell breaks down the rise and fall of value in certain Mosaic products, shares his personal collecting experiences (including a numbered Luka rookie snag), and gives insight into inserts like Jam Masters and Bang! — some iconic, some hilarious, and some seriously underrated.

From comic book vibes to oversized heads and flaming basketballs, this episode covers it all with a mix of nostalgia, hobby perspective, and a touch of self-deprecating humour.

🎧 Listen now to hear:

• Why Mosaic holds a unique spot in the collecting timeline
• How WNBA Mosaic compares to NBA
• Inserts that hit (and some that miss)
• What Russell thought was the next Net Marvels…
