Nike Is Also LeBrons Bitch

[OregonDucks]

I thought this was a prelude to a 30 for 30.

I thought it was a smart ad... especially for the targeted area of Cleveland.

The whole point is that things don't usually go easy, or right the first time.

The championship isn't just going to be handed to Cleveland because they have LeBron and really want it. Gotta keep plugging away until you earn it.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Obsessed much. Looks like you're his bitch too. Add another one to the list

 

[Black Adam]

I was all set to give you props because I thought it was pretty funny.

Now that I know it's real, I can't decide if it's funny or sad.

MY vote's sad. just sayin'...

remind me to never buy another set of Nike's...

Thank God it only targeted the Cleveland area.
And IMO,the rest is just rhetoric and bullshit so they can make James/the area feel better about the ending, when there really is NO NEED to.
We all saw what happened.

Nike didn't feel the need to run that nonsense down here after we lost to the Mavs.
That Heat team didn't have injury issues but it certainly was a unique season where the Heat were forced to try to overcome difficult situations.

Your heartbreak that LeBron left Miami is some of the funniest stuff here on SportsHoopla. You are w/o a doubt obsessed w/ him.

Lebrons' bitch list:

Number 1 unanimously is Dan Gilbert








Number 2 unanimously Turnup





Number 3 Nike


Number 4 but very close is Mario Chalmers still

 

[Shanemansj13]

Just to point out, at one point Chalmers was at #1 and Turnup was a close second.

umm, considering how quick you are to defend him YOU should be on the list somewhere too...

And where in this thread did I say or imply anything negative about LeBron?
I'll wait........

And as far as butt hurt about him leaving, not sure how anyone who can read and comprehend(which apparently isnt you) would say that because I said I wanted him to leave BEFORE he said he was if he wanted his annual opt out bullshit.

All advertisement is rhetoric

Disagree.
Most are to promote or sell.

This one did neither.

They can be designed to promote or sell and still be rhetoric:

Rhetoric is

language designed to have a persuasive or impressive effect on its audience, but often regarded as lacking in sincerity or meaningful content.

Rhetoric is

SEMANTICS.

You said "all". I agree that some are rhetoric, but certainly not all.

What did this add accomplish?
If it was so powerful (and they thought people would care), why just run it locally?

I don't know the answer, but has Nike ever ran an add to just a local market?

Seems to me like it's just a case of being up LeBron's Ass.
