Whoa, Whoa. This is Panini we're talking about. This unique design alone would be enough

guys, we are all dreaming out of our minds here. crown royale was awful this past year, and honestly doesnt look that great for football either. the NFL version is CONSIDERABLY better than NBA, that's 1,000% sure, but Panini simply cant/wont apply it to the NBA. with National Treasures being an exception, Panini's basketball offerings are AWFUL (but i collect panini, for the same reason you do.. exclusive licensing). compare the latest 2010 Absolute football vs the Absolute basketball 09/10. 2010 FB has ZERO hits are single jerseys. there are some triples, some jersey autos, but whole subsets of patches and jumbos. Meanwhile, in the 09/10 BKB, if you could dodge a Absolute Heroes single white jersey, then you probably couldnt avoid the Stargazing single white jersey. Sure, the 2010 FB is LOADED, but the BKB version isnt even up to the Absolute standards of 2008 FB, let alone 2009 or 2010.
i'd love to see vast improvement (such as more current stars/legends signings like Durant which is realistic, whereas on-card autos are not realistic, I mean we let Topps get away with it for forever) but i dont wanna be overly optimistic, only to be disappointed... I bought Crown Royale the day of release, ran to the LCS, opened it and found jersey pieces the size of my pinky; the odds of pulling a patch card was 1 out of every 52 or so packs, in a product that was billed to be $25 per pack; my entire box returned $10-15, i had paid $80 here's to hoping for some significant upgrades
