I believe it was at the 1983 NBA All-Star Game.

Marvin Gaye FTW! Most epic Star Spangled Banner Theme I've ever heard anyone sing, I believed he sang this song back in the 83 NBA All Star Game, so yeah.

Excellent commercial too, went perfectly with the NBA Redemp Team.

I will never forget it...I was in 8th grade and I was on my way outside when I heard the music playing...I'd never heard anyone sing this song like this...he was like a siren...I was so drawn and captivated by his voice and the music that I froze where I stood! Nike, kudos to the marketing dept! Unreal..brought back a powerful childhood memory!

I know. I was just curious because the ad is so highly rated.

Needless to say, it is clear everyone is very wrong.
