There are a few things that come to mind when I watch this video. First is that they actually used to have a shoe commercial where the league's two best players were matched up head to head. Could you imagine Nike having a commercial with say LeBron matched up one on one against Kobe Bryant? It's something that everyone would want to see, but in this day in age, will never happen.

The other thing that comes to mind is that it's a shoe commercial that actually focuses on...wait for it...the shoe! No shoe commercial these days does that. Now a days shoe commercials are all about creating some fake brand image for the player and the shoe. Anyhow if anyone has full footage of this commercial, shoot me an email. I'll be sure to return the favor with endless amounts of punch and pie.
