The disclaimer at the end is the best part of the commercial: "Mr. Jordan's opinions do not necessarily reflect those of Nike, Inc."

[QBziZ]

I never saw mj play great without his shoes. so, the shoes are a pretty good bet.

[dacbiet]

[EliasJordan3]

thumbs up if you're here cause of playboy

[Evergreen6991]

At 0:18 it looks like Spike Lee really had to bend over as corporate stuck it in there.

[uskingofthesouthful]

man man michael jordan

[findlj]

Moneys gotta be the shoes!!

[BlackStarTV1]

I love the throwback commercials.

[Hudini32]

What kinda hat is spike rocking?

[NickelodeonRewind2]

@Hudini32 its a brooklyn cycling cap

[lolyao]

7 people walking out public without shoes!!!

[redilliop]

I do find it funny how people's perception is (especially for those born in the 1980's) swayed. They would consider Jordan's shorts today to be "short-shorts", but listen to Lee's question of the "extra long shorts". Back in the late 80's, early 90's, those were considered extra long, because shorts came VERY high on the thigh for guys!

[dablackkidd23]

[jattdetatta12365]

@xKingHoldsclawx your the idiot, you said who is he, and he isn't the black brother faggot and plus itz a commerical lol cunt.fk u queer

[xKingHoldsclawx]

[925FreshKid]

I want spike lees hat

[dhylec]

I'm looking for the best moment to screen capture this ad for an "It's gotta be the shoes" caption pic. The best I found was right at 0:11, when Mars still has his mouth wide open and the shoe up close.

Anyone have a good idea? :)

[RonaldKnecht1]

It's gotta be the shoes!!! Best MJ commercial ever! ;-)

[ADULTabuse]

G.O.A.T.

[handheldgamer144]

[videogme]

YO YO YO Spike Lee shilling for the man, son.

[QuietGiantProduction]

can't wait for spike lee's documentary on michael jordan.

[gikib0i]

*The extra long shorts*, the shits don't touch his knees

[chiakinakaike]

LOL compared to the shorty-shorts NBA players used in the 70's, those actually are "extra long". :p

[getyoasshome]

in those days those were extra long not those pajama pants these clowns wear today.

[DaBearsManiac]

@gikib0i compared to the style in NBA leading up to the nineties, those were considered exrta long shorts

[spidavenom4]

@gikib0i Jordan was the first to ever wear his shorts down that low. Before they weren't cut off half way through the thighs smart one.

[xKingHoldsclawx]

@gikib0i I hate rockin shorts below the knees. feel like i got more flow with a lil above the knees.

[redilliop]

@gikib0i for the 1980's, yeah those were EXTRA LONG! Look at NBA games before 1990, and his shorts looked "funny" back then like those worn back then would be considered today!!

[prlad85]

Oh My God! I remember these! Great Job!

A++++++++

Have a great weekend and a great day! Puerto Rican Love from New York City!

[Bombersfan86]

WEEPPAAAA BORICUA!!!

[prlad85]

Para siempre! Bien semana hermano!

[Shoof120]

I'm a huge fan of MJ, but someone brought up a huge point the other day....I'm from NYC but not from BK, MJ allegedly has done "nothing" for the city he is from? All I have personally seen as far as contributions to the city is that restaurant thats in Gran Central....I must admit, his shoes caused alot of havoc & dead kids but for some reason I still like him? Is that wrong??....

[Bombersfan86]

Yo i know what you mean, im a HUGE Knicks fan but also a HUUUUGE Jordan fan (NOT the bulls) and especially his shoes..I know that he has neva done anything for the Borough that i am also from but..i tell my self..as long as he dont deny it..then im good ha ha..

[BananaCo12321]

dead kids?

[Shoof120]

Yeah, Dead Kids. Not sure where you were during the early 90's but kids were getting "KILLED" over a pair of Jordan sneakers. When you hear this "Yo son, what size are those???" in the early 90's you needed to start figuring out what your next move is gonna be!

[BananaCo12321]

I was born in '93 so yeah my memory of the early 90's isn't so clear lol, do wish i was in that generation over this one though

[jbissainthe]

@BananaCo12321, you were born in 93? Damn! I am exactly 20 years older than you. I was born in 73. Anyway, the 90's, particularly the early 90's were something else in the NBA. Well, I would have to say the late 80's through the early 90's. Man, I use to really get excited about watching games back then. You would have loved it!!!

[getyoasshome]

MJ was only born in new york he never lived there. the only reason he was born there is because his mom was in new york on business and went in to labor his fam never lived there.

[Shoof120]

Yeah, thats great & may very well be acurate, but he still acknowledges Brooklyn. Thats means something right?

[getyoasshome]

i guess but maybe spike is acknowledging brooklyn i wouldnt say mike. but hey if bk claims mike i dont see nothing wrong with it.

[Shoof120]

Well, whatever the case, my point was to provoke thought on the subject of his kicks & how they affected the community. What can you say?? I'm not really expecting a response from him per say, but just to know different opinions on his blind eye towards it. (or not)

[getyoasshome]

well actually the culture of the shoes is another story alot that comes from portland oregon.tinker hatfield lives here and when the shoes come out we get em early sometimes so it acutally begins here with popularity. some jordans are not released everywhere. the inner city always loves the shoes well.....because hes mike lol hes the best player ever.

[aznskate]

gotta be the shoes !

[keithy68]

This is the commercial some are saying Michael J popularized the baggy shorts, I disagree, as these didn't come to the knee. The credit still belongs to the Fab Five of Michigan for getting men out of "Daisy Dukes".

[MrNoodlemantra]

Fuck outta here. No one remembers those monkeys. And before this commercial, shorts were SHORTER than these so in fact they WERE baggy shorts. Owned.

[keithy68]

You may have selective memory, but these shorts the MJ wore didn't catch until the Fab Five of M wore LONGER, and BAGGIER short when they when the NCAA championship back to back. Everybody before that was still wereing short shorts!

[thirdshift47]

Classic.

Mars Blackmon rockin' the gazelle specs.

[chinkiie6]
