NBA All-Star Jerseys

Re: NBA All-Star Jerseys

Barry, I was wondering if you knew what was happening to the jerseys worn in the second half? Just curious as I noticed LeBron had his jersey untucked while Wade was receiving his MVP, and the MGG tag was visible.

And was Jason Kidd's jersey tagged prior to the event? I saw some photos of him during warm-up, and there's no MGG tag on his jersey.

Re: NBA All-Star Jerseys

Hi everybody,

I am happy to answer all the questions, as I am still in Dallas awaiting my flight back to New Jersey.

NBA & MGG Authenticators, including myself, secured the 24 jerseys worn in the first half of last night's 59th annual All-Star Game.

All were tagged and authenticated prior to the event, and authenticated after the event in Cowboys Stadlum (wow, what a place!!).

I have them with me returning to NJ, and will be happy to answer any questions on sizes, etc. The reason the sizes were not listed in the auction that began at tip off last night is that players got to choose from several sizes of a new style cut of jersey produced by adidas.

Yes, auctions will continue into March for warmups, shooting shirts, skills competition and other All-Star Weekend events, etc. So stay tuned for those announcements.

Unfortunately, we cannot control who bids, who wins, etc. Good luck to all of you, and feel free to pose any questions you have here. Or you can e-mail me at bmeisel@meigray.com

Thanks, Barry

Re: NBA All-Star Jerseys

he won a couple of the superstar players Celtics Christmas jerseys, so it's safe to say he's ready for this as well.

Yup, I'd say if you don't have about $50k just "laying" around to spend, forget about it! All the superstar players will be gone by our "friend" in no time.

Re: NBA All-Star Jerseys

Just noticed these went up for auction.

Does anybody know if that one guy still goes after every one of them, or is it safe to bid again?

Re: NBA All-Star Jerseys

is Kobe's game issued going to be auctioned?

it's going to be fun watching that one bidder take all the jerseys again.

Re: NBA All-Star Jerseys

Last year, it seemed that the one main collector (using two different screen names) picked up a majority of the items.

The do auction off the warm up,rookie game, and special event jerseys as well. Some of those might be available outside of the big money bidders.

Another option if the game issued jerseys, if you accept those, as they seem to be passed over by the big guys.

Good luck.

Also anyone know if other items (Warm-ups, rookie unis, dunk unis, etc) from the all-star weekend will be up for auction?
