Kobe and Lebron Nike Puppet Commercialsvoice

The folks at Nike are at it again!!!    This time they reinvent Kobe Bryant and Lebron James as Muppet-Like puppets. Kobe comes off like an old man while Lebron comes off like a 10 year old kid.  The commercials are very funny, but i can’t see how Kobe or Lebron could approve of the way they are portrayed in these commercials.  TheNBA league office must have had to sign off of these ads.  Here are all the ads in one spot.

Updated Information:

Many folks have been asking who created the Kobe/Lebron Most Valuable Puppet Ads for Nike.

The PuppetVision Blog had some information available.

It appears that the puppets in the ads were created by Legacy Effects and the voice of Kobe Bryant was done by former “In Living Color” actor David Allen Grier.  Lebron James’ voice was performed by SNL’s Keenan Thompson. It has been reported that the voice of Little Desmond (Lil’ Dez) is performed by Role Models  actor Bobb’e J. Thompson

I am still trying to find more information on the ad agency that created the ads.

Kobe/Shaq NBA Fear Commercial – Playoffs 2008

It looks like the playoff hype is in full effect. The NBA released a commercial that features Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’neil delivering the same monologue. The NBA playoffs being on April 19th.
Is the NBA predicting a Lakers vs. Suns playoff. I think that David Stern’s dream may come true this year if the Suns’ Shaq and Nash can make a push towards the end of the season.

Watch Streaming Online Shows On Your HDTV

Have you ever had a rough day at work and then went home and fell asleep minutes before the episode of “Lost” that was going to explain the entire series? What is a guy to do when he forgets to Tivo or DVR his favorite show? Do you run over to the neighbors house and beg him to transfer it to a VHS tape? No way!!!! You can always go to ABC.com and watch it on your computer screen. You’ve most likely already spent eight hours in front of a computer monitor at work, but what other options do you have?

You can always hook up your computer to your HDTV and watch it on your full sized television screen. Now that sounds like a much better plan of action. It only takes a few minutes and two cables to get the setup working.

Here is a short video that I shot that may(or may not) help you.

*Note: The video was put together in only a few minutes, so the first segment that shows the PC and Audio inputs is on the rear of the television. This was not explained very well in the video.

“What is happening”?

Other than the certainty that Elizabeth Mitchell as Juliet Burke looks hot (for someone who has been running around in a grimy island all this time) there are more question coming. What will happen if the helicopter doesn’t stay on course. Daniel Faraday hints at some “side affects”. Well if you saw Gia (with Elizabeth Mitchell and Angelina Jolie) can we expect the same? Probably not, but a dude can hope.
