Anyone else miss this until just now? http://www.nba.com/features/only_be_one_080410.html I'd love that as a Finals matchup!
They have videos for other teams too. I dont know if there's a video for that tmac one. <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/wWXdTpAti7o&hl=en"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/wWXdTpAti7o&hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object> <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/JVl09aKmsW8&hl=en"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/JVl09aKmsW8&hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object> Kobe looks weird in that video.
Really great and inspiring ads, imo. I do think the NBA has the best commercials of any sports league. They're just inspiring. Can't say I've ever felt that way about any commercials that the MLB or NFL have ever done, save for that Shawn Merriman/Steven Jackson Nike spot.
I don't really mean NBA specifically, but just ads based on the NBA in general just seem to be better than those based on other sports. I liked the ones that had the quotes that followed a play, or the one where Melo is walking down the street, or Amare's "Tell me I can't.", or the "Look me in the eyes" one.
tmac's vid is still yet to be released. There are 3 so far(cp3/dwight, lebron/KG, shaq/kobe), it will goes on till the playoff, where 15 different vids with players from all 30 teams will be out.

I believed the NBA just stole the originate idea from ClutchFans.

Can I just say that I'm finally starting to get pissed off at these eye jokes. Only because I have the same condition. I had it in one eye and then got it in the other which caused double vision and the need for surgery. One eye is no big deal. Having strabimus in both eyes totally sucks and to me it is not a laughing matter.
