To Spreadsheet or Not To Spreadsheet + An Intro to Jokic (Chris HOJ-Cast #15)
This HOJ-Cast, likely the last for the next 3 weeks or so, has four segments. First is a deep dive into my Pre-National Bounty List. Second is a review of Nikola Jokic's basketball career to date. Third is a review of two competing collecting philosophies, specifically whether one should spreadsheet or not. And fourth is a reveal of a Jokic pickup from earlier this year, which illustrates a way of unifying the two collecting philosophies.
