2021-22 Panini Hoops

• G-001 The spec's preferred primary source cardboardconnection.com could not be reached for this release: every URL form (www, /amp, r.jina.ai proxy, allorigins proxy, direct curl) was refused - WebFetch returned ROBOTS_DISALLOWED and the session egress proxy returned 403 CONNECT policy denials for www.cardboardconnection.com and api.allorigins.win. beckett.com/news returned HTTP 403 as expected per the spec. checklistinsider.com returned no indexable page for this release. All data therefore comes from tcdb.com, checklistcenter.com, cardsmithsbreaks.com, cardlines.com, gogts.net, breakninja.com, sportscardchecklist.com, blog.paniniamerica.net and retailer product pages (dacardworld, midwestcards, steelcitycollectibles, blowoutcards, StockX).
• G-002 Base set size disagreement: 270 vs 250. Used 270, supported by tcdb (Total Cards 270, range 1-270), cardlines ('a giant checklist of 270') and Panini America's own announcement ('a complete 270 card set which includes Base, Base Rookie, and Base Hoops Tribute'). cardsmithsbreaks lists only Base 200 + Base Rookies 50 = 250, and one reading of checklistcenter gives base 1-200 plus rookies 201-250. The 250 figure appears to exclude the Hoops Tribute segment (251-270), which most base PARALLEL checklists also stop short of (tcdb Anniversary Edition = 250 cards, NBA 75th Anniversary = 250 cards).
• G-003 Channel unverified for these base parallels - listed by checklist sites (checklistcenter, cardlines, tcdb, sportscardchecklist) with no product-configuration attribution, and not named in any retailer box description found: Blue, Neon Green, Yellow, Red Backs, and base Red #/75. cardlines explicitly states it 'does not specify which parallels come from specific pack types' and 'does not mention exclusive parallels for Target, Walmart, or other retailers'. 5 of 25 parallels carry channel=UNKNOWN for this reason (a 6th, Premium Box Set, is UNKNOWN for enum reasons - see G-008).

• G-004 NBA 75th Anniversary #/75 is named inside the hobby-box parallel list by dacardworld, midwestcards and steelcitycollectibles, but unlike Silver/Green/Artist Proof no source calls it hobby EXCLUSIVE.

• G-005 The retail-box channel attribution for the base Purple parallel is single-source: only midwestcards' 2021-22 Hoops Retail Box page lists 'Base Purple/Anniversary Edition' and 'Base Rookies Purple/Anniversary Edition' as retail exclusives. dacardworld's retail-box copy names only Blue Explosion and Red Explosion.

• G-006 The Hyper family (Hyper Blue, Hyper Red #/99, Hyper Green #/25, Hyper Gold #/10) is documented by dacardworld as exclusive to the Hoops Asia / Tmall Box ('8 Base and Base Rookies Hoops Asia exclusive parallels in each box'), but the spec's channel enum has no Asia/international/Tmall value. Recorded as channel=retail with the Asia exclusivity captured in visual_notes. Asia-box attribution is single-source (dacardworld).

• G-007 Winter and Purple Winter: tcdb catalogs these under a SEPARATE set id (sid 296172, '2021-22 Hoops Winter', 250 cards) rather than as parallels of the main set (sid 290813), while checklistcenter, cardlines and sportscardchecklist list them inside the 2021-22 Panini Hoops base parallel family. Retained here as base parallels. Channel recorded as blaster on the basis of the '2021-22 Panini NBA Hoops Basketball Winter Holiday Blaster Box' SKU (blowoutcards, Amazon, StockX), but no source explicitly states that the Winter parallels are exclusive to that box, and no source states whether the Winter SKU was a Target or Walmart exclusive.

• G-008 Premium Box Set #/199 comes from the separately-sold 2021-22 Panini Hoops NBA Premium Box Set, distributed by Panini Direct via Dutch auction rather than through hobby or retail packs. The spec's channel enum has no direct-to-consumer/box-set value, so channel=UNKNOWN. It is also the only documented base parallel spanning all 270 cards; every other parallel checklist checked runs 1-250.

• G-009 Insert set 'Parade' appears in the set lists at tcdb, breakninja and sportscardchecklist but no source publishes a card count; recorded as UNKNOWN. Same situation for Road to the Finals Second Round and Road to the Finals NBA Championship.
• G-010 Road to the Finals is reported inconsistently: checklistcenter aggregates the whole family as one 100-card set, while tcdb and sportscardchecklist split it into four sets (First Round, Second Round, Conference Finals, NBA Championship) and cardsmithsbreaks gives counts for only two of them (First Round 43, Conference Finals 12). Recorded as four rows following tcdb; two counts remain UNKNOWN and the four counts have not been reconciled against checklistcenter's 100.
• G-011 Rookie Sweaters count disagreement: checklistcenter says 34, cardsmithsbreaks says 33 plus a 1-card 'Rookie Sweaters Header Checklist'. Used 34 on the assumption the header checklist card is included in checklistcenter's total; unconfirmed.
• G-012 Autograph count disagreements between checklistcenter and cardsmithsbreaks, all of which appear to be aggregation differences rather than real conflicts, but none confirmed by a third source: Great SIGnificance 97 vs 96+1 Gold; Hoops Art Signatures 10 vs 5+5 Horizontal; Hoops Ink 44 vs 41+3 Hyper Gold. Used the checklistcenter totals (97 / 10 / 44).
• G-013 Base cards 78-100 and 183-200 are single-source (checklistcenter only) - tcdb's paginated checklist truncated on both fetch attempts for those ranges. Cards 61-77 were fetched from both tcdb and checklistcenter and matched exactly, which is the basis for trusting checklistcenter on the unverified stretches. All other ranges (1-77, 101-182, 201-270) come from tcdb.
• G-014 No source found documents Target- or Walmart-specific SKU exclusives for 2021-22 Panini NBA Hoops, and no hanger-box SKU was located for this release (blaster, 24-pack retail, mega, jumbo value fat pack/cello, Asia Tmall and Winter Holiday blaster were all confirmed). Channel coverage for the retail side is therefore incomplete; cardlines confirms it 'does not mention exclusive parallels for Target, Walmart, or other retailers'.

• G-015 Insert card counts for Champions (1), Championship Moments (12), Finals MVP (1), Highlights (5), Legends of the Ball (15), Now Playing (23), Rookie Special (2), We Got Next (25) and Zero Gravity (20) are single-source (tcdb for Champions; cardsmithsbreaks for Championship Moments and Finals MVP; checklistcenter for the rest).
• G-016 Hoops Ink card count disagreement: tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/296221 and tcdb.com/Gallery.cfm/sid/296221 both state 42 cards and render exactly 42 coded rows (HI-ABG .. HI-WZZ); sets.csv card_count is 44 (checklistcenter 44; cardsmithsbreaks 41 + 3-card Hyper Gold). 42 rows written to insert_cards.csv. The 2 unaccounted cards are not published by any source that prints real codes.
• G-017 Great SIGnificance card count disagreement: tcdb.com/Gallery.cfm/sid/296200 states 96 of 96 across 10 pages and renders 96 coded rows (GS-ABG .. GS-ZW); sets.csv card_count is 97 (checklistcenter 97; cardsmithsbreaks 96 + 1-card Great SIGnificance Gold). tcdb agrees with cardsmithsbreaks at 96. 96 rows written to insert_cards.csv.
• G-019 tcdb metadata artefact: the Finals MVP set page (sid 296194) reports Total Cards 12 in its header field, but both Checklist.cfm and Gallery.cfm render exactly one card, #98 Giannis Antetokounmpo, and 98 is the only free number between Championship Moments (86-97) and Champions (99) in the continuous 1-100 playoff insert run. sets.csv card_count 1 is correct; the tcdb 12 is stale. 1 row written.
• G-020 Uncatalogued tcdb subset family found by probing the numeric gaps in tcdb.com/Inserts.cfm/sid/290813: an entire 2021-22 Hoops Winter parallel family occupies the skipped sids, e.g. 296176 = 2021-22 Hoops Winter - Arriving Now (25), 296229 = 2021-22 Hoops Winter - Hot Signatures Rookies Green (48), 296262 = 2021-22 Hoops Winter - Rookie Ink Green (48). These are colour/Winter parallel tiers, not new sets, and are recorded here rather than added to sets.csv. Same pattern the 2020-21 Hoops pass found.
• G-021 Rookie Sweaters is OMITTED from tcdb.com/Inserts.cfm/sid/290813 for 2021-22 Hoops and was recovered only by probing the sid gap at 296270, where tcdb files it under the Hoops Winter parent as 2021-22 Hoops Winter - Rookie Sweaters (34 cards). The 34 reconcile as 33 RSW- coded memorabilia cards plus a Header Checklist card printed #1 (confirmed by eBay free-text titles ebay.com/itm/255428977399 and ebay.com/itm/235801450723), resolving G-011. All 34 rows written to insert_cards.csv under the sets.csv name Rookie Sweaters.
• G-022 Prefix collision inside this release: RS- is used by BOTH Rise N Shine Memorabilia (RS-AD, RS-AS, ... letter suffixes) and Rookie Special (RS-1, RS-2, ordinal suffixes). No identical codes result, but (set_name, card_number) is the only safe key. Note also that RS- was Rise N Shine in 2019-20, RNS- in 2020-21, and is Rise N Shine again in 2021-22 - the prefix was reassigned twice across three seasons of this line.
• G-023 Road to the Finals family numbering resolved, closing G-009 and G-010: tcdb shows one continuous 1-100 playoff insert run split across eight sets.csv sets - Road to the Finals First Round 1-43, Second Round 44-67 (24 cards), Conference Finals 68-79 (12), NBA Championship 80-85 (6), Championship Moments 86-97 (12), Finals MVP 98 (1), Champions 99 (1), Parade 100 (1). This explains checklistcenter aggregating the family as 100 cards. sets.csv card_count UNKNOWN for Road to the Finals Second Round (=24), Road to the Finals NBA Championship (=6) and Parade (=1) can now be filled (not edited by this pass).
