The Unending Juxtaposition Continues: The King and His Airness
In Lebron James, In Michael Jordan, In Nike, In TeachNovember 27, 2010
This mash up of LeBron and Jordan's latest Nike commercials is absolute brilliance and serves as a strange warning to both LeBron and basketball fans. LeBron: work harder. Fans and critics: never judge the present while still occupying it. Questions: what's to be made of the fact that Nike's commercials for LeBron can even be boiled down to recycled bits of His Airness' ad reel? Is LeBron a parody of Michael? Or full blown satire?
Right now, unfortunately, it's starting to feel a lot like farce.

Ha this clip been on TV? I really like it!
