NBA player commercials

[Hodges]

So I was watching the Rox/Lakers game, and during an ad break they showed this ad:

[YOUTUBE]<object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/6znkbMJJTyQ&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/6znkbMJJTyQ&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>[/YOUTUBE]

Pretty damn funny. Its the second one of its type, first one is just as funny.

[YOUTUBE]<object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/EsPndm2ff4Q&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/EsPndm2ff4Q&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>[/YOUTUBE]

I think they are done by the same people who do Crank Yankers.

Anyways, over the years there have been some great NBA ads. Feel free to post more.

That Maccas ad is still my favourite basketball ad.

I know they've been done to death, but last years playoffs ads were amazing

In the States all you see is Dwyane Wade and Charles Barkley doing their 'Fave Five' ads CONSTANTLY.

they're funny most times, especially the one featuring magic and dr j - old school.

it just feels weird sometimes seeing wade without his scowl

Cleveland Cavs did a ad the other month where the team walk into the locker room and each player has new sneakers in their locker and they all scream like girls for about 30 secs. Pretty funny

That one was a take-off of a classic Heiniken ad

that was a pissa. i remember creating a thread just for that ad!

Those Nike puppet ads are hilarious.

There is a third one out now, where LeBrons game tape turns into a Kobe unstoppable video. Not as funny as the other two, but still funny.

"LeBron. Can you explain your Crab-Walk dribble dribble?' - That's what we all want to know

 

[Hodges]

That last one is pretty funny, especially the "crab-walk dribble dribble". The jumping into a car one is pretty lame.

They were on Sportscenter the other night, doing the intro theme. Nike must be spewing LBJ didnt make it...

 

[sheller891]

by far the funniest ones

are "lebron, have you seen my championship rings... I SEEM...TO HAVE MISPLACED...MY...CHAMPIONSHIP RINGS"

i lol at that every time

oh and the chalk one is great, mocking lebron "oh yeah playofffs kobe, playoff time, oh yeh , CHOSEN ONE, oh yeh"

and one of my favourite nba ads of all time is very very short and sweet

lebrons having trouble with photocopier and guy walks past, stops, shakes his head and says "chosen one...eh"

hahahahahaha comedy gold

A better version of the ad with the assist of dubbing.

 

[sblack]

[youtube]<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/8_g4OPlPvwU&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/8_g4OPlPvwU&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>[/youtube]
