Nike Basketball’s marketing geniuses have done it again, bringing us another installment of their never ending puppet show, and personally i seem to enjoy this one. Here you see the self proclaimed #1 reindeer in the world Blitzen, starting a rap battle against Lebron, Kobe, and Santa Clause of all people. Twitter

Well I am sure every Kobe or sports fan out there knows the Lakers won the 2009 NBA championship. This is the fifteenth championship in Lakers’ history and Kobe’s forth championship ring. We all know the story of Shaquille O’neal saying Kobe could not win a championship without him with Kobe proving him wrong.

The bigger story lately was Lebron James who was was spotted rocking a RUN DMC style inspired t-shirt, you know the one with the red bars above and below the group name, but instead Lebron James chose to market himself with the shirt saying LBJ MVP.

I personally don’t see anything wrong with the t-shirt and i think its a dope concept but i can understand why some people take it wrongly because even though Lebron James was MVP, he could not lead his team to the NBA championship ring.

We can flip the script now because Kobe did win the championship  and has his own shirt. I know you have either seen or heard of the puppet commercials featuring Kobe and Lebron as roommates. Well Kobe’s t-shirt is inspired by that. The shirt has Kobe’s puppet hand with four rings on all puppet fingers representing his four NBA championships.

This is the commercial. Follow Me
