a pretty cool ad for NBA TV.   i really like the use of old footage and highlights mixed in with newer clips.

Whenever I’m watching a game with friends and this ad comes on, everyone stops and watches.  Sports fans love retro highlights, dramatic music, and a wide variety of players.  This ad holds a fans attention very well, making me curious what they’re advertising for.

Spalding does this well too.

multiple players, old and new, quick transitions, and an unknown company behind it all.  I like the ad and it holds my attention as well.  I also really like getting to see a bit of each player’s personality when they’re at the line.

Lastly, here’s a cool MJ ad i stumbled onto. (it takes a few seconds to get started).
