Frankly, it’s come to be one of our most anticipated moments at the outset of each new NBA playoff series (/keys covered with the drippings of sarcasm). So, now, as the Celtics prepare for game six in Detroit and a chance to punch their ticket for the NBA Finals, we sit on pins and needles. Because we know it’s coming. Soon. We can almost taste it…
That’s right. The debut of the next NBA “split-face” ad. You know, those strangely alluring (and now totally played out) television commercials that only manage to creep you out with their meticulously synced facial motions and voices. Well, pretty soon we get a brand, spanking new one.
With the Celts the proverbial favorite to eventually take the East, the smart money is probably on that Bryant guy and KG or Pierce as the next incredibly edited faces of the NBA. Regardless, we’re hoping against hope for the combo above.
The idea of the current NBA creative with Sam “The Alien” Cassell and Pau “Bushman” Gasol is at once thrilling, harrowing and rather amusing. But, alas, there can be only one…
Note: Yes, I am fully aware of my completely lacking Photoshop skills. You get the idea, though.
