Video: LeBron James’ New Nike Ad ‘Rise’ (UPDATE)

Nike and their ad agency Wieden+Kennedy deliver the goods (as always) on the eve of the regular season kick-off. You’ll have to view it on YouTube for the time being. Enjoy.

UPDATE: We’ve got the video now. Color us thoroughly impressed.

    @BBaller he’s only trying to mock Charles Barkley, but he shouldn’t stand on “I’m Am Not A Role Model” because Sir Charles personifies that statement 3 times more than Lebron can dream of.

    @Seed. You sir, are ignorant.

    Classic sh*t. You got this one right LeBron (thanks to Nike). Just to bite back and have the guts to do this. You regained some more respect.

    I wonder if The Chosen 1 will ever even have the chance to see Michael Jordan in the Hall of Fame. Six rings and the legacy of changing the game is a stretch when you have done nothing more than proclaim yourself great, piss off many of the basketball loyalists, and…oh yes…choke in consecutive playoff trips when the team needed your “greatness”. Even a decent performance performance would have gotten him a ring or two…

    Do that commerical after 6 rings and then poke fun at MJ

    Lebron has no legacy and never will. Contrived commercial for a coward. Leave Cleveland, no problem. I hate Cleveland. The way he did it is what ruined his image forever. His name doesn’t even deserve to be muttered in a sentence with Jordan, Johnson or the likes. No commercial is ever going to fix his tarnished image.
