This commercial is the GOAT for so many reasons. It perfectly sums up the era. The competitive, tenacity, respect, ridiculous amount of all-time legends playing simultaneously and last but not least the wisdom of the late, great Kobe Bryant. Also reminds me why his peers respected him so much and how much Kobe loved what he did. Mamba Forever
The collections of players: Young and Old. Titles and non-titles. First Ballot Hall of Fame and short burst superheroes. Mixture of positions. Above and beyond. This mixture is crazy.
I love playing basketball. I love everything about this game. The love for the game never goes away. It's just a part of me. I thing if you took my heart out, it would be a basketball. The squeaking of the sneakers against the hardwood, the ball bouncing against the hardwood, the sound of the net, the smell of the leather, I just love everything about it. When I'm in between those lines I feel at peace, I feel free, I'm in paradise. That ball and that basket it just makes me complete...
So many great players in this video, miss that, and the emotion in garnett face at the end, its priceless. Nate robinson was a player because of whom i believed i could jump and dunk one day, so at those times like 2008 - 2010 (11) i was spending almost every afternoon 1 - 2 hours at streetcourt and trying to do lay-ups and shots, as a kid. Maaaaan, too many emotions now in my mind, too many memories, when i was trying to be better baller. Last summer i came to court after cca 4 years and found out that its like riding a bike, you won´t forget the technique :D
love being in the zone in any sport. no matter what nobody can stop you makes winning a game even more epic.....better when u enter the zone when your losing and win at the end
I love watching this commercial. It reminds me how I feel when I play, and it reminds me to always play for these reasons, because thats why I first started playing. Basketball, ILY.
I just love this game, it's a out of the world felling when you're in that basketball zone and loving the game for all it has to offer. Im just so passionate about it, skilled or not skilled. and if im not good enough that passion is gonna drive me to be better, a lot better.
just today i watched this video over 200 times! yes and i would say that... I'm between these lines..I cried! The Love, The Passion, The Ambition, & The Dream...Never Goes Away!!.... I LOVE YOU My life and my Heart will stay belongs to the Basketball
Man, there's just something about this game that brings out such passion. I try to explain this to people, but unless you experience it yourself, it's hard to "get it." The sound of sneakers on the wood, hearing the ball swish through the net, feeling "in the zone," if your shot is falling. It gives me chills every time. Oh, and GO SPURS GO!
It was composed specifically for this promo, so just search "Love for the game" by Mark Willott. He has created music for several of TNT's great NBA promos.
i get shivers everytime! especially at 1:01.... and everytime i'm competing...whether it be against another team in a game...or against myself in a drill that is kickin my ass in practice...i think of lebron's quote "You gain respect by not backin down...and it gets me through it everytime...
Favorite PF Kevin Garnett I loved how bad Garnett wanted to win at 1:00....... You guy's don't realized how bad he wanted to win that championship. That's a perfect example of making something you want happen
The NBA will not be the same once players like Kobe Bryant and Kevin Garnett retire. They are so passionate about the game. They truly respect the game
JUdging by the date I'd say this is from the 2009-2010 season but it was still great. Nate said "If you take my heart out it'll probably be a basketball" epic. And then Kobe's part right after that. Classic the best parts.
I LOVE basketball maybe just as much as these guys do. I play it every day for as long a I can, Its all I watch on TV and I work my hardest to become as good as these guys. The only thing is that I probably never will be.
Glad to see Roy's making a comeback this year, I really hope he does well with Minnesota, if he can play well with Love and Rubio they for sure have a shot to make the playoffs again and make some noise.
Its all so true. When you're in the zone, you don't hear anything, see anything, you can only see the hoop. then u turn around, and realize that someone was right in ur face, or theres no time left. You lose your senses.
When I see this video I start to get chills and shaking because basketball moves my heart and I simply love this game. I wanted to be a very good player but I can't. I'm not good at basketball and I try hard. I am not good enough and I'll give everything just to be a basketball player. Damn! I love this game.
Goosebumps @ 1:00 - 1:10 Garnett is all passion .. Chris Paul is right .. you can see it in his eyes .. Awesome!! Can't stop watching it again & again .. :)
I can not stop watching this video I love the NBA (L) I'd spend my life watching NBA games, only the NBA is able to bring me tears of happiness I have right now in my eyes:)
Once again TnT make another amazing commercial..every year this game, the playoff's get better! The only sad thing about this commercial is AI, and remembering how good he was in his prime.
GREATEST COMMERCIAL EVER. Every thing said in this commercial is 100% true. All of these things are incredible to feel when your doing it. Great F***ing Movie

Kobe is an basketball legend
