Year: 1998-99
Set: Fleer Brilliants (Rate)
Card: #3 Steve Nash
“ My all time least favorite NBA set, and (one of) my least favorite player. Blah. This set is terrible, in that it's both sticky and greasy at the same time- it was greasy when new, and got sticky soon after. The cards are actually plastic and I suspect Fleer cheaped out on the plastic and it's already biodegrading. I suspect if you tried to open a pack now they would all be stuck together. Oh, and if you try to remove any of the dust that invariably sticks to it, the coating on the front of the card chips off and makes it even worse. ” -Billy Kingsley
“ Another great player. Photo is a good shot, background is depressing. Back is alright. ” -Doc Floyd
“ Great player! Why does the front image look like a photo studio? ” -dilemma19
“ Nash with the Mavericks, what a flashback. ” -carthage44
“ "Short", Canadian and an N.B.A. star go figure. ” -uncaian
“ Since basketball is played indoors, and you don't see many cards with grass in the background, I guess Fleer figured a glop of battleship gray would suffice. ” -NJDevils
“ Yuck. What is that background? The "Time Tunnel"? Eye of a tornado? A whirlpool? And that is not an "N" that's an uppercase Pi from the Greek alphabet. Pronounced with a "p" sound...it's Steve Pash! ” -C2Cigars
“ So strange...so many feelings...cool but odd...ugly but legendary...too many feelings to describe. ” -DarkSide830
“ A 1990s card OF COURSE. Dark and dingy color for front. Hard to read foil name, but easier than sometimes. If name and team were easier to read I'd like it. The back usual suspects only one line of stats player picture too large. ” -captkirk42
“ Steve Nash, seen here exiting the time tunnel.... ” -DaClyde
