I know that there is a constantly debated topic in the world of MLB cards as to what is considered a rookie card. I was wondering if the same general rule applies to NBA cards?
Would most still consider an insert or parallel card from a player's rookie year a "rookie card"? I ask this because I have noticed that this website does not include a "RC" tag on anything other than a base card.
For instance, I have quite a few rookies from 96-97 stadium club (Kobe, Nash, Iverson, Allen etc) that are part of the insert set titled "rookies". Would this still be normally considered rookie cards in the market?
