There is a new series of NBA commercials out promoting the NBA Playoffs which start this coming weekend. They continue to play on the NBA’s theme for the 2007-08 season: Where Amazing Happens.
I think the commercials are pretty unique, hence the reason I’m posting it here. They consist of a split screen with two different athletes saying the same phrase. The kicker is, from what Kobe Bryant said on Monday, is that they didn’t tell the players who they’d be paired up with.
Kobe’s partner? Shaquille O’Neal. That’s great stuff.
The one I’m posting below has Steve Nash with Jason Kidd, and the final line is ironic. Two people are saying the same words, but there can be only one.
These probably were a bit complicated to get right, because the players had to say the words at the exact same pace as the other guy, but filmed entirely separate.
Good spot. Would be interesting to see a Kobe/Shaq combo.
Steve Nash is the shizznit!
Go Stevie!!!
