LeBron James broke the NBA scoring record last night. Here is the Nike commercial that aired on TNT immediately following LeBron’s breaking of the record:
The soundtrack of this ad is obviously a Black church. Did anyone else have a problem with the way the ad equates LeBron with God? it seems pretty blasphemous. Did this thought even cross anyone’s mind at Nike?
Yeah. Saw that. I don’t tend to get too hot and bothered by what our society does. I mostly expect it. But I have to admit that this was quite shocking for me.
