    07-08: UD or Topps?

    Hi,
    Looking to crack a box, maybe both even. Either:

    07/08 Topps Hobby Box
    or:
    07/08 Upper Deck Hobby Box


    No guarenteed Hits (i believe) for Topps, but UD gives 1 Auto & 2 GU.

    $30 for UD, $32 for Topps
    Any suggestions? Last time i broke my UD box i got pretty nice hits:

    Kobe Jsy
    Magic Johnson Jsy
    Joey Graham Auto

    PLMK!
    thanks

    Topps all day. You had a 1 out of a 100 UD box. Mine wielded a JJ Redick GU, Andre Miller GU, and Cedric Simmons auto...

    If the topps is topps jumbo- then go with it. If it is topps regular- avoid it! Upper deck all the way!

    yea it seemed too good to be true when i ripped a Magic Yellow Swatch from a UD reg. pack box... then Kobe, lol. Lakers Day for a Celtics guy.
    Topps Jumbo could bring me Glen Davis' Rookie Photo Shoot Auto, or anyone else for that matter, but at 1 per case.

    UD, however, whether i choose another Eastern box, i get MJ inserts, Western, i get Durant inserts.
    I did find the UD box fun w/ Rookies Galore, but who knows, maybe there's a UD Game Materials 2-Clr Patch somewhere in there.

    yea, out of a however many players in the set, however many hits set per case, lol
    i know you pulled yours, if anyone i could pull a Belinelli lol or someone like that...

    I like Topps better, personally - plus, there are plenty of insert sets as well...and for a Celtics fan, you could pull a Bill Russell auto!
