Nike presents to you the MVPs (Most Valuable Puppets). The roommate puppet versions of LeBron James and Kobe Bryant get competitive in this campaign for the NBA Playoffs.
I'M JUST GETTIN' STARTED, BABY!!!! Quite possibly the funniest NBA commercial ever! I've watched this at least a dozen times and it keeps getting funnier!
Funny that it took 6 years for this to look real. Kobe's like, "I've already won some titles and an MVP and I'm injured." Lebron is back in Cleveland and in the Finals.
It's a take on "The Odd Couple", notice the nostalgic music. Kobe is very clean cut and mature and LeBron is wily and young. It speaks to the set of fans who grew up with Kobe and the ones now growing up with LeBron. Also, Kobe's demeanor is quiet confidence, "been here before, got the rings to prove i know what i'm doing." LeBron's first time is demonstrated in his excitement about every little thing from the $20 chinese takeout of being on the road and overdoing it with the chalk.
"I need a basketball in mah hands!!!" (silence) Are we done yet? I'm just gettin startin baby!!! YEEUUAHHH!!!WHOO!!! CMON CMON! MVP MVP!!! OOO YEAH 23 2-3! YEAH!
i agree the stomach growling is hilarious, but i've using this commercial to taunt my kobe fan friends since it came out....so i guess i got one for each side
It's March 8th, 2023 and this commercial is still one of the funniest I've ever seen in my life. As a lifelong Clevelander and Cavs fan, there's some background to LeBron's, uh, excitement here that Nike took full advantage of. This was made in 2009, as the Lakers and Cavs seemed to be a full speed collision course towards each other into the NBA Finals. The Lakers held up their end. The Cavs, going 66-16 and sweeping through the first two rounds of the playoffs, seemed to be holding up their end as well...... until they hit the Magic and Hedo Turkelou. He killed us and the Cavs bowed out in 6 games in the ECFs, denying the world of what should have been one of the greatest NBA Finals - no, one of the greatest championship meetings of any sport - ever! Kobe vs LeBron in their prime!!! Like Magic vs Bird.
best two conference final match ups in YEARS. Although as a Celtics fan I am a little disappointed, but without KG and Powe and with Allen playing like I do (I've played some of my worst basketball ever in the past few weeks!) for the guts of the post season, they would have been aggravating to watch against the Cavs.
I’m watching this in 2019 and, if this became a sitcom, I’d watch it every night.
i can second this in 2024, congratz on 69 likes. nice.
RIP Kobe. This ad will forever live on as one of the funniest sports ads of all time.
RIP Mamba.
Loved these commercials

These were some of the first videos I remember watching on CZcams discovering it.
Simpler time for the young website back in 2009.
"I NEED A BASKETBALL IN MY HANDS ..WOO" LMFAO

7 years. Cleveland wins NBA Finals, Lebron is Finals MVP, and Kobe retires.
Ten years , and Kobe is dead :(
8 years later, Bron joins the Lakers
