Some Spurs players featured in there.

Agreed - I fell in love with this commercial the first time I saw it.

[itzsoweezee]

[Amuseddaysleeper]

iirc... didn't it premiere during a super bowl? i thought it was bad ass at the time as well.

I always like The Gnome is Out of Bounds, but not surprised it's not on the list.

[whottt]

"Can you say, 'Contract renegotiation' ? Mr. Robinson can :D"


Best Spurs related commercial evah.

[Leetonidas]

The commercial I really love that ain't there is the new Jordan one where it's in slow-mo and the guy dunks the ball while the other team and the fans are crying and shit. That is awesome.

Found it... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mnq-pV7XgiI

:lol You think he was really able to get that can of shaving cream to spin on his finger?

They need Tim's American Express commercial. That one was great!

[degenerate_gambler]

I always got a kick out of Ice's Nike barbershop commercials back in the early to mid 90's.


Anyone more well versed in you tube than me, can you find some of those?

Holy cow! I don't know if it is my lousy work computer or not, but I clicked on the link in the first post and about a million windows popped up.

I felt like I launched the pink slip virus. :lol

Don't worry, they'll trace it back to you! :lol

all the Jordan commercials are great, but the XX1 was the best.

all of the Mars ones were cool to see again.

[KEDA]

also to see Tim in the early years when he was with Nike was pretty sweet!

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

I wish they'd included Tim and Grant Hill mowing lawns during the lock out. That was some good stuff. Hell you could probably make a top 50 list just out of the local spots that the Spurs have done.

[Bandit2981]

My favorite Spurs ones are:
1. Sean Elliott with Taco Cabana
2. The 90's Spurs singing that song about Midnite Basketball ("The Spurs are here, and they're going to say that the gang thing just ain't the right way!") :lol :lol

[baseline bum]

I wish someone had those Memo To: Commercials from 1999, especially the one they played on the commercial break after the Spurs clinched in game 5.

[Bandit2981]

Hell yeah, those original Memo: commercials kicked ass!!

[mFFL03]

what about the antromorphic Nike commercials where we relate an animal to a team or player?

i.e. spurs were like the piranhas of the league

i think the other ones featured lebron (i never saw it though), dirk (eagle), march madness (ants), rasheed wallace ( fire), steve nash (tornado), earl boykins? (a toad?)

I've tried looking for them before, but couldn't find them anywhere.

[PM5K]

all the Jordan commercials are great, but the XX1 was the best.

I don't know.

The young Michael old Michael one was pretty sweet.

And the Bird/Jordan ones were funny.

The Like Mike commercials and the Bird/Jordan ones were so well known.

I really like that newer one someone mentioned, I especially like the part where the guy steals the ball, when he comes out of the darkness...

Tim's Amex commecial

I love the Garnett and Marbury commercial, "All nude, but tastefully done"
