    I saw it during the game! Good eye!

    Yeah, I agree, much ado about nothing! Yao is in it for like 2 seconds. I would have liked to see him at the end with the other players on the street.

    so basically USA Today doesn't realize that the commercial aired last night?

    another thing I want to rant about, TNT advertise "The Playoffs and Law & Order, Only on TNT"....



    no its not! the playoffs are on two other networks, ESPN and ABC and Law & Order is on Bravo and NBC!



    false advertising:mad:

    Yeah I thought I saw that commercial last night when the game was on. I'm not going to give away what happens though.

    I completely agree. They should have featured Yao more, or maybe some other Rocket. But No, Yao was just a flash, nothing more than a blurr. A big BIG letdown just like the playoffs.

    That's a really old commercial. That's not new it has been around for a long time. he is the part of the rap where he goes

    Old School - Picture of Jordan
    New School - Yao

    But that can't be the new ad cause that has been out for a long time.

    As I understand it, the commercial has Jimmy playing ball with Yao and several other stars and ending with the mothers of the players calling them home for dinner.

    That sounds to me like an excellent commercial, hope it's going to be on friends tonight.

    i've actually seen it and i've been underwhelmed... so that last remark was a sarcastic one...

    your description is right on... except yao is in it for less than 2 seconds.

    If its the same one i saw yesterday, nothing to get up about. They showed Vinsanity ask if Jimmy can play, gets Jimmy, Jimmy says bye to Yao who is putting up the goal again from the last commercial, in which Yao has a confused face wondering why he is being shafted. Carter and Jimmy ride their bikes to end of the street where the play ball along with Kidd and Lisa Leslie. They parents call them to eat for dinner. At the end, Jimmy is sleeping and Peyton is throwing a football towards Jimmy's window in which he asked if he was awake and wanted to play. Jimmy's mom hears them and they run away, thats it. Yao was barley in it for like 2-3 seconds.
