cool ad
I like hearing him tell a story. His voice always sounded weird to me when he is yelling on the court. In this ad he seems really personable, more charismatic than I’ve seen him. B-ROY! Glad he is our Franchise Guy.

Good ad
I have mostly been worried about the day that Nike starts pressuring BRoy or LA to do one of those super egotistical “I am the greatest ever” type commercials. Like that Dwyane Wade commercial Converse had last season, where he is shouting his own name over the P.A.. Every time I saw that one, I always thought to myself that there are actually some upsides to having a losing team.

Good post
First time I have seen this, awesome.
I’m glad he had to shoot with gloves on. Maybe that prepared him to shoot with his new “pinkie splint”!
I now go by RMC Brannon. That's right Rudy Man Crush!

Great little story...
…Reminds me a bit of Pete Maravich. The great ones just have to get out there and play, play, play. They can’t help themselves. What a great mom too.

I don't get the snow part
Did he stack snow 12 feet high behind a 10 foot basket?

Roy stole this story from Labour party leader Neal Pinnock
Pinnock told a strikingly similar story about playing basketball in the snow during a commercial he shot for LA Gear in the mid-80s.

Great stuff.
I remember shooting in gloves too. It is near imposible.
My favorite teams are the Blazers and any team that is playing the Lakers.

Tell me about it.
Wait, we’re both talking about heroin right?
