Why Do We Live Together?

Genius. Nike does it again.

“Lebron, have you seen my 3 championship rings? Cause I seem to have misplaced my 3 championship rings. And they represent the 3 championships that I myself have won. Now somewhere in this area, I seem to have misplaced my 3 championship rings. Have you seen em? I did say there were 3 of them didn’t I? You probably don’t even know what they look like. See, for each one of these delicious chocolate chip cookies there is an equally delicious NBA championship ring, that you don’t have. One for each chocolatey cookie, and you got to be hungry Lebron…” -Puppet Kobe

Beef & Broccoli!

Watching this makes me all giddy inside, like how Nike commercials use to make me feel. This takes me back to the days of “Bo Knows…”, Mars Blackmon and Lil’ Penny. Nike ads always have an extremely high level of quality to them and this is just another example that proves that fact(Thank you Mr. Wieden, thank you Mr. Kennedy) . They captured Kobe and Lebron’s personality to perfection! Kobe’s isn’t too hard to personify as he’s the cool, calm, collected character, obviously the “straight man” in this comedic duo. But Lebron’s puppet persona? Wow, flat out nailed it!

You know, if looked at in a different light one could misconstrue overly, hyperactive Lebron following around Kobe high off of his mind on cocaine. Sure if you’re a basketball fan, you know that what Lebron is throwing around is rosin/chalk, but I wouldn’t think everybody seeing this commercial is aware of that. Eh, just an observation.

Absolutely love it when puppet Lebron yells “$20 dollar Chinese food!” and “Beef and Broccoli!”
