    The way they have that puppet acting, seems as if that's a different kind of white powder than talc. Very strange...

    I replayed that part about a billion times and i swear it says "Beat them Rockets". But I can understand the beef and broccoli reference because he did mention Chinese food. But why mention Chinese food? Is that a Yao reference? If so, then it might be "Beat them Rockets".

    I agree with one of the previous posters....Rigged. Kobe vs LeBron. BS

    Nike probably wasted millions to put out a commercial...and its not even gonna happen.

    ROFL, this has to be the most naive response I've heard in a while. I guess you never took any economics courses in college or any business management, accounting, or finance courses either. Perhaps you're not even in college yet. If you fail to see the naivete in your statement, then I don't know what to say.

    It's not the stone age anymore bud, there are open lines of communication via the phone, emails, fax...the simple fact that NIKE can use Lebron and Kobe's imagery in their commercials shows that NIKE and the NBA are always in active communication. That's the definition of business.

    Personally, I have Lebron creams Kobe and the Fakers. I am rooting for the thuggish Nuggets and King James the rest of the way.

    Don't underestimate the power of NBA being a business and how much money is involved.. the refs can easily tip this series for the Lakers-Cavs.

    They can, but they aren't tipping it to Lakers-Cavs. They are tipping it to Lakers-Magic.

    I think these commercials are hilarious, even if it's lame that the league is pretty blatent about playing favorites.

    I hate these commercials although the LeBron puppet looks a lot like him (the Kobe one does not look anything like Kobe).

    Personally, I don't think LeBron has a chance of getting a triple-double against Kobe in a one-on-one game. Just my opinion.

    It's not an NBA commercial -- it's Nike.

    Why does LeBron get credit for the talcum powder throw when KG was doing that for years before him?

    I wish people would get this through their heads. People don't seem to know the difference between the NBA and Gatorade, Vitamin Water, Nike, etc.
