  • Okay, So we welcome back, Roz.

  • And do I dare call you the queen of any royalty?

  • You are the queen.

  • How did you get started in all of this?

  • I am no queen of NBA top.

  • I am, but I am active in the space.

  • You know, I I got it in January.

  • Um, and in top shot time.

  • I've been here about a month.

  • That's that's a long time.

  • But there are people even before there, Um, I didn't even know what it was at the time.

  • So my first entry into it was curiosity.

  • And I like basketball.

  • And so it was really joyful for me at first.

  • Just picking out my favorite players.

  • That's what I kind of got into.

  • Then Later, I got into strategy beyond just the players, like, um, focus on Series one.

  • Um, okay.

  • I'm gonna look for the rarity or the tear of the card.

  • Is it rare?

  • Is it legendary?

  • And then I focused on higher serial numbers.

  • You know what else I found while doing this?

  • I fell into a rabbit hole of a wonderful community.

  • Guys, I slid in d m s.

  • I met people on clubhouse and I've like, I've literally made friends using top shot.

  • It is such a helpful and welcoming community.

  • I'm so happy with it.

  • And are any of you on top shot?

  • Not yet yet.

  • I'm in D m s, but that's a different conversation.

  • Okay, well, you slide it in something else, but guys, look, it's not even too late for you.

  • Like, you know, just recently, they dropped a series to LeBron James moment.

  • Remember the play where he shot the three and then turned away really quick, turned away from the three and looked at the bench and then celebrated running down the court with the bench like that was an amazing play.

  • And it became an amazing moment and it was just released.

  • And there's gonna be more of these great plays that come out game after game, season after season and that anybody can pick up over the course of time.

  • Okay, so it sounds like your collection is established and I've got two questions for you.

  • What is your favorite thus far?

  • And what is the one that you're trying to get you in the worst way?

  • Your grail, if you will.

  • All right.

  • So So My favorite moment in my collection is a Draymond green legendary block series one.

  • And it was Warriors Nuggets at Chase Center.

  • Guys, I was actually at this game, and that's what's cool for me.

  • That's part of the joy.

  • Like I remember the play and as a collector to I kind of saw that the moment was undervalued at the time that I caught it.

  • I was like, How are you guys not picking this moment up?

  • I was like, Draymond is going to be a Hall of Famer And also I was the Warriors sideline reporter.

  • I mean, he's near and dear to my heart.

  • That's my guy.

  • Also, this is a block.

  • This is the play is essential to.

  • This is what he's about all about defense.

  • So it's a huge pickup today.

  • Oh, most of the Holy Grail.

  • Anything, LeBron man.

  • And if you get your hands on LeBron Zion or Luca, But LeBron is, his moments are the most valuable period.

  • So, Roz, you're a well educated woman from Stanford University.

  • My question is just very simple.

  • What's the endgame for you?

  • Retirement home?

  • What?

  • Do you know what I think?

  • At first it was about getting in and getting, you know, having fun and creating this community.

  • But there absolutely is an investor aspect to this, um and so you try to pick smart, maybe build a portfolio that's worth something, But I think for me it's just like the most valuable thing I've gotten out of this is the community and the fun I'm having.

  • And because I know basketball so well.

  • And this is something that I've been doing playing since I was for a game I've been covering for years.

  • I feel that I have an advantage, and I think that I could crush the marketplace and do my best to try and catch these drops.

  • That is probably my hardest part, trying to catch the drops for the packs.

  • So it sounds like world domination.

  • It sounds like it, but she's also crushing the art game with what's behind her right now.

  • I'm just curious.

  • You know what really is that I love that.

  • Thank you guys.

  • You know, I I collect a bunch of things, not just top shot moments, but also art.

  • Um, but you know, one thing that I really want to make sure to get out there to that I want to collect are the legend, like the legends moments that are coming out soon.

  • It was actually just announced that they're going to be bringing out another run at backpack.

  • So shock Tracy McGrady, Allen Iverson.

  • There are going to drop soon, right?

  • Hey, I step over Tyler, perhaps.

  • Like who knows?

  • That was the play.

  • I mean, that would be vowed, so valuable.

  • But that's what I'm looking the most forward to.

  • To that is why you are the queen.

  • I love it.
