2019-20 Panini Hoops

• G-001 Channel/SKU attribution unresolved for six base parallels: Silver #/199, Green #/99, Teal #/49, Orange #/25, Purple (unnumbered) and Red Backs (unnumbered). cardboardconnection, checklistcenter and tcdb all list them with print runs but none states the pack, box or retailer they come from, and no Panini odds sheet for 2019-20 Hoops could be located. Recorded as channel=UNKNOWN.

• G-002 Base Red print run conflict. cardboardconnection, checklistcenter, tcdb and live eBay listings all show Red serial-numbered #/75; DA Card World's blaster box copy prints "Base Red (#'d/49)". Recorded as 75 (4 sources to 1). If DA Card World is right there may be a separate blaster-only Red at /49.
• G-003 beckett.com/news/2019-20-panini-nba-hoops-basketball-cards/ returns HTTP 403 and could not be used as a cross-check for base size, parallels or set counts. gogts.net publishes the 2019-20 Hoops checklist only as downloadable PDF/XLS (no on-page data), cardsmithsbreaks.com has no 2019-20 Hoops checklist page (Invalid Checklist), and no checklistinsider.com page for this release could be found.
• G-004 Artist Proof channel partly unresolved. DA Card World's hobby box copy and breakninja both describe Base Artist Proof Gold #/10 as hobby-exclusive, but neither source (nor any other) states the channel for Artist Proof #/25 or Artist Proof Black 1/1. Those two recorded as channel=UNKNOWN even though they are most likely hobby as well.

• G-005 Premium Box Set #/199 is listed as a base parallel by cardboardconnection, checklistcenter and tcdb, but it is found only in the separately sold NBA Hoops Premium factory box set (which also carries Base Hoops Tribute Premium Box Set Autographs #/10), not in 2019-20 Hoops packs. Recorded here as channel=retail; it may belong to a separate release record.

• G-006 Set-name spelling disagreements: 'Back Stage Pass' (checklistcenter, tcdb) vs 'Backstage Pass' (cardboardconnection); 'Get Out the Way' (tcdb, DA Card World) vs 'Get Out of the Way' (cardboardconnection); 'Rookie Remembrance' (tcdb, DA Card World) vs 'Rookie Remembrance Relics' (checklistcenter); 'Red Backs' (cardboardconnection, checklistcenter, tcdb) vs 'Red Back' (COMC). Majority spelling recorded in each case.
• G-007 Hot Signatures structure disagreement. cardboardconnection counts Hot Signatures as one 100-card set (60 base + 40 rookies) and Red Hot Signatures as one 100-card #/25 set; checklistcenter and tcdb split each into a base section and a Rookies section. Recorded as four separate auto rows (60/40/60/40); total card count is the same either way.
• G-008 Release date disagreement. cardboardconnection, DA Card World (both blaster SKUs and the jumbo value box), Steel City Collectibles and GTS Distribution all state November 6, 2019. Panini America's own preview blog post states October 23, 2019 (likely the preview/announce date) and ToyWiz lists 'October 2019'. Recorded as 2019-11-06 (5 sources to 2).
• G-009 No mega box or hanger box SKU could be found for 2019-20 Panini NBA Hoops at DA Card World, Steel City Collectibles, Walmart or Target; the only 2019-20 Hoops mega/hanger SKUs found belong to the separate 2019-20 NBA Hoops Premium Stock release (Purple Disco, Cracked Ice, Laser, Mojo etc.). No mega- or hanger-exclusive base parallel is therefore recorded for this product; if such a SKU existed its parallels are missing here.
• G-010 Winter and Purple Winter card counts not separately published. DA Card World's Holiday Blaster copy states the box contains '280 Base Winter cards and 20 Base Hoops Tribute Winter cards' (=300, mirroring the base set), but no source publishes a Winter checklist, and no source states whether the Holiday/Winter blaster was a Walmart or Target exclusive (Walmart, Amazon, DA Card World and Blowout all listed it).
• G-011 Base card #181 source conflict: checklistcenter.com lists '181 Marc Gasol - Toronto Raptors', duplicating its own #178, while cardboardconnection lists '181 Kyle Lowry - Toronto Raptors'. Recorded as Kyle Lowry (cardboardconnection is internally consistent and Lowry is otherwise absent from the set). All other base cards come from checklistcenter with #171-200 verified against cardboardconnection.
• G-012 rookie_flag is taken from checklistcenter's RC designations (RC on #201-259 and on the Hoops Tribute rookies #295-300). cardboardconnection's checklist prints no RC markers at all, so the RC set is single-source; the #295-300 Tribute RC status in particular was only confirmed by checklistcenter.
• G-013 Insert card counts (Action Shots 30, Arriving Now 20, Back Stage Pass 10, Class of 2019 15, Courtside 15, Frequent Flyers 15, Get Out the Way 20, High Voltage 25, Highlights 5, Legends of the Ball 15, Lights Camera Action 30, NBA City 30, Road to the Finals 98, Rookie Special 2, Spark Plugs 15, Tip-Off 10, We Got Next 25, Zero Gravity 20) agree between cardboardconnection and checklistcenter, but tcdb publishes no counts, so every count rests on two closely related sources rather than three independent ones.
• G-014 Road to the Finals is recorded as 98 cards per cardboardconnection and checklistcenter, but that figure appears to fold in the tiered subsets (First Round #/2019, Second Round #/999, Conference Finals #/499, NBA Championship #/199, Championship Moments #/99, Finals MVP) and the Champions SSP Toronto Raptors team card. Whether the 98 includes Champions is unverified.
• G-015 Explosion family channel is sourced from retailer copy only. ToyWiz names Teal Explosion and Orange Explosion (#d/25) as fat-pack exclusives and DA Card World names Blue Explosion (#d/49) and Red Explosion (#d/15) as retail-exclusive in the same UPC (613297944768) 12-pack x 30-card Jumbo Value/Cello box; no checklist site states the channel. All four recorded as channel=retail.

• G-016 Rookie Sweaters Dual is PARTIAL: sets.csv card_count is 18; tcdb catalogues only 16 and states 'Total Cards in Set: 16' on its own gallery (https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/218354/2019-20-Hoops-Winter-Rookie-Sweaters-Dual, https://www.tcdb.com/Gallery.cfm/sid/218354/2019-20-Hoops-Winter-Rookie-Sweaters-Dual?PageIndex=2). The 16 written are SD-CC, SD-DC, SD-DT, SD-JB, SD-JC, SD-JI, SD-JJ, SD-JN, SD-PT, SD-RC, SD-RI, SD-SB, SD-TK (Keldon Johnson/Tyler Herro), SD-TK (Kyle Guy/Ty Jerome), SD-ZJ, SD-ZR. Two cards are unaccounted for; no source consulted (tcdb, cardboardconnection) names them, so no players are withheld here - the shortfall is that the two missing cards are unknown to every source, not that their numbers were suppressed. sets.csv's 18 comes from cardboardconnection + checklistcenter (see G-013).
• G-017 Premium Box Set Autographs: FABRICATION CHECK #1 (copy check) FIRED and is written anyway with an explanation. All 20 rows are byte-identical in number and player to base_cards.csv #281-300 (the Hoops Tribute subset). This is the spec's documented base-mirrored scheme and is what sets.csv itself describes (autographed Hoops Tribute cards sold only in the separate NBA Hoops Premium factory box set). The renumbering failure mode is ruled out structurally - a renumbering aggregator emits 1..20, not 281-300. RESIDUAL UNCERTAINTY: no free-text seller listing title for the AUTOGRAPHED version could be located (the set is #/10 and online-exclusive). Corroboration is indirect: https://www.comc.com/Cards/Basketball/2019-20/Panini_NBA_Hoops_-_Base_-_Premium_Box_Set/282/Hoops_Tribute_-_Kobe_Bryant/14884608 shows the UNSIGNED Premium Box Set card carrying base number 282. Source of the rows is https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/218337/2019-20-Hoops-Premium-Box-Set-Autographs.
• G-018 SOURCE CALIBRATION RESULT for this release (recorded so later passes do not repeat the test): cardboardconnection.com FAILS as a card_number source on 2019-20 Panini NBA Hoops. Calibrated on the coded set Hoops Ink: cardboardconnection prints '1 Alex English / 2 Damian Lillard / 3 Dana Barros / 4 Kobe Bryant ...' where the card actually prints HI- codes (tcdb https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/217899/2019-20-Hoops-Hoops-Ink, confirmed on the marketplace by https://www.fanaticscollect.com/weekly/edd62110-5f41-11ef-b5e1-0a58a9feac02/2019-hoops-ink-red-kobe-bryant-auto-25-hi-kbr-bgs-95-gem-mint reading '#HI-KBR'). It renumbers Rookie Ink and Great SIGnificance the same way, and its Great SIGnificance run has HOLES (4 then 6, 34 then 37) which look like a genuine printed run and are not - a live instance of the spec's warning that a hole proves nothing. cardboardconnection was therefore used ROSTER-ONLY throughout this release; its Great SIGnificance roster matched tcdb's 97 exactly with no extras either way, which is strong roster corroboration. checklistcenter, breakninja, sportscardspro and checklistinsider were not used for any card_number. PASSED as number sources on this release: tcdb Checklist.cfm/Gallery.cfm, plus ebay/comc/goldin/fanaticscollect/steelcitycollectibles/myballcards seller listing titles.
• G-019 PREFIX COLLISION inside this release: the RS- prefix is printed on TWO different sets - Rise N Shine Memorabilia (39 cards) and Rookie Sweaters (41 cards). Both are independently confirmed on the marketplace: https://www.ebay.com/itm/265906750595 ('2019-20 Panini NBA Hoops Rise N Shine #RS-JMT Ja Morant Rookie Jersey Card') and https://www.comc.com/Cards/Basketball/2019-20/Panini_NBA_Hoops_-_Rookie_Sweaters/RS-ZWL/Zion_Williamson/14890319 ('Rookie Sweaters #RS-ZWL'). The two rosters overlap heavily (both are 2019 rookie memorabilia sets) so many RS- codes appear in both sets, sometimes for the same player. (set_name, card_number) is the only safe key for this release; a resolver keyed on the RS- prefix alone will mis-hit. Note also that the two sets disagree on codes for shared players (Rise N Shine RS-CRD vs Rookie Sweaters RS-CAM for Cam Reddish; RS-TMW vs RS-TWT for Tremont Waters); both were re-fetched verbatim and both pages print what is recorded.
• G-020 DUPLICATE PRINTED CODES written verbatim and flagged rather than dropped, per spec (chase_cards is unique on set+number+player, not set+number). Great SIGnificance: GS-DWD is both Dwyane Wade and Dewayne Dedmon; GS-JHR is both Jared Harper and Jaylen Hoard. All four players appear independently on the cardboardconnection roster, so these are genuine initials collisions, not source errors. Rookie Sweaters Dual: SD-TK is printed on two different dual cards (Keldon Johnson/Tyler Herro and Kyle Guy/Ty Jerome). Sources: https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/218326/2019-20-Hoops-Great-SIGnificance and https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/218354/2019-20-Hoops-Winter-Rookie-Sweaters-Dual.
• G-021 Hot Signatures / Red Hot Signatures, Keyon Dooling: the ONLY row in this release where the written card_number departs from what tcdb renders. tcdb prints 'HS-KD;' with a trailing semicolon on both https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/218328/2019-20-Hoops-Hot-Signatures and https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/218338/2019-20-Hoops-Red-Hot-Signatures. Written as HS-KD on the strength of a free-text seller title, https://www.ebay.com/itm/114162543422 'KEYON DOOLING 2019-20 PANINI HOOPS HOT SIGNATURES AUTO CARD #HS-KD', which the spec makes the tiebreaker. HS-KD is a two-letter suffix where every other code in the set has three, so the possibility that the real code is HS-KDL (or similar) and BOTH sources are truncating it is not fully excluded. Worth one more listing check if another surfaces.
• G-022 Bears on G-014, which asks whether Road to the Finals' count of 98 includes the Champions SSP. It does: tcdb catalogues Road to the Finals as a single continuous 1-98 run in which card #98 IS the Toronto Raptors Champions team card (https://www.tcdb.com/Gallery.cfm/sid/218344/2019-20-Hoops-Road-to-the-Finals?PageIndex=10, '98 - Toronto Raptors'). The playoff-round tiers named in sets.csv (First Round #/2019, Second Round #/999, Conference Finals #/499, NBA Championship #/199, Championship Moments #/99, Finals MVP) are serial-number scarcity tiers over that one 1-98 run, not separate numbering blocks - all 98 cards carry a plain ordinal. Recorded here rather than by editing G-014 or sets.csv, neither of which this pass may write.
• G-023 Naming discrepancy, recorded not acted on. tcdb titles four of this release's pages under a 'Hoops Winter' product prefix: '2019-20 Hoops Winter - Rookie Sweaters' (sid 218353) and '2019-20 Hoops Winter - Rookie Sweaters Dual' (sid 218354), which sets.csv carries as plain 'Rookie Sweaters' and 'Rookie Sweaters Dual'. Both sids sit inside this release's own subset block and both sets are Winter/Holiday-blaster exclusives of this release (release.csv documents that SKU), so they were filled into our existing rows rather than treated as another product. Distinct from the true Winter PARALLELS at sids 218304/218313/218332/218342/218351 ('2019-20 Hoops Winter - Arriving Now', '- Class of 2019', '- Lights Camera Action', '- Rise N Shine Memorabilia', '- Rookie Remembrance'), which are the Winter parallel family already in parallels.csv and were correctly NOT written as sets.
