Did anyone notice LaMarcus Aldridge or Brandon Roy in the new Nike LeBron ad?

Plus, the Blazers are wearing their home whites and the Portland crowd is cheering for LeBron as he dunks and throws up chalk? (Enter conspiracy theory or wacky trade scenario here) Was that Reggie's barber shop in the vid? You be the judge.

I think I saw that commercial 100 timies before I noticed that. I know, I'm a bit slow.

Couple things I noticed

- Around the 00:27-28 mark, you can see that it says ‘Cavaliers’ on the court. I guess it’s anyones guess to why they chose to have the Blazers in home whites.
- At 00:18 there is someone in a #7 Blazers jersey, though it doesn’t actually look like Roy. It’d be a little odd for them to go through the trouble of getting someone of Roy’s stature to appear in the commercial, and then relegate him to a blurry 2 second shot in the background, so I’m guessing it’s not him.
- It does appear to the real Oden who beats Sideshow Bob for the tip at 00:38.
- Elsewhere in the video, you see other random dudes in Blazers jerseys with no numbers. Maybe Oden, Roy and LMA are the only Blazers with endorsement contracts from Nike?
- I was really hoping for a Shawn Kemp cameo.

Makes sense..

Nike is in Portland (Beaverton) and it would be convenient for them to do everything locally while Lebron is in town. :) That is of coarse if they don’t contract out to some other ad agency outside of our state.

Did anyone else notice

The girl in the vid, who is playing against the boys is Oregon’s very own Jaime Nared. She’s the chick who was kicked off the boys team at The Hoop because she was schooling everybody.

My wife just picked up on it this evening…….

At the 0:38 - 0:42 second mark

She’s the girl in the locker room (shillouette) who let’s the chalk fall onto her face (closeup), then they have a shot of her crossing a boy over (action shot).
