2005-06
Andrew Bogut rounds out the six-card /99 top tier and helps explain why the 2005 rookie page should be read as a full class rather than as a Chris Paul singleton. In archive terms, he is part of the structural proof that the year's rookie lane still had shape and hierarchy.

The flagship card of 2005-06 Exquisite. Cardboard Connection's product framing treats Chris Paul as the one rookie who gives the release enduring classic appeal, and the checklist backs that up by placing him squarely in the six-card /99 patch-autograph summit. For seasoned collectors, this is the card that keeps 2005 in the serious part of the Exquisite conversation.

Deron Williams sits in the same six-card /99 rookie patch-autograph summit as Chris Paul, which is important context when reading the 2005 set historically. He does not carry Paul's long-term hobby gravity, but his presence helps show the year had a real top tier rather than a single-card spike.

Andrew Bynum's rookie patch autograph sits outside the /99 summit at /225, which is a useful reminder of how the 2005 rookie ladder is actually structured. It separates the headline tier from the broader rookie run without flattening the entire class into one serial format.
