Michael Jordan / LeBron James Numbers #ED-JJ

Jordan-LeBron Numbers is exactly the kind of cross-era prestige card that keeps the final NBA Exquisite release from feeling merely transitional. It extends the long-running Numbers idea into one of the year's most collector-friendly pairings.

Jordan and LeBron in a one-of-one dual-logo card is exactly the kind of closing-statement grail that keeps 2009 relevant to seasoned Exquisite collectors. The rookie structure may have changed, but the top-end ambition clearly did not.
