Lebron James, hero or villian? Nike uses the debate to make you buy sneakers

Oct 26th

Posted by Miss Info over at MissInfo.tv

Lebron James asks “What should I do?”….but we know that’s purely hypothetical. He doesn’t want our answer. But it’s the way the “question” is posed that is fantastic. The ad has Wieden-Kennedy written all over it, and is far more kid-gloved than that unfortunate Tiger Woods x Earl Woods blunt instrument of a commercial. This one [...]

LeBron James addresses all his detractors in his new commercial, part of a multimedia campaign via Nike called “Rise.” Yes, it’s a display of brash ego.
