Why no Iceman as your sponsor???

If you’re going to run a commercial 6,000 times during TNT NBA telecasts using an old black man to basically sit in a chair selling soft drinks that happen to be named “Ice”, why not use the coolest Iceman on the planet?

Because most people have no idea who George Gervin is. Even most NBA fans today wouldn't know who he was and Mountain Dew never heard of the Spurs.

What the poster above me said and I have tried the soda and it tastes like a 7up or Sprite. Not a Dew nut either but I don't get what the big deal is with this soda. Would have liked the commercial better if Freeman had a sip and said "get busy living or get busy dying, that's damn right".

You people have not paid attention to George’s commercials over the years. But, it’s not surprising considering your knowledge of the game is lower than the Mountain Dew marketing department. Somehow the fans of the Spurs have become dumber than Laker fans...at least on this site.

I can’t even argue with this. I was perusing a list of the top all time 32 players, and he wasn’t even on it. WTF?

Morgan Freeman could play Iceman in a movie about his life when he’s old. Doesn’t look much like him and definitely doesn’t sound like him but whatever

Agreed.

I'd get Kevin Hart to play young Gervin and then Freeman for the older years.

I saw previews for a movie where they made Matt Damon about an inch tall. So I'm pretty sure they could figure it out.

I was thinking more like the stuff they can now do with NBA video games. But whatever works.
Point being that there is absolutely no reason that Kevin Hart couldn't play young Gervin.

:lol I just mean in general. However, I don’t know maybe iceman is shown giving him advice or something before a game. Hollywood makes that stuff up all the time!

well...then I don't know who the hell plays George Gervin.
Trust me...it's a movie about the Ice Man. You need a star to take on the main role.
For Avery...if he has to be in the movie...Forest Whitaker.
