Ever since LeBron James entered the NBA fans have wanted to see him compete in the slam dunk competition. He has been reluctant to participate in his NBA career.

Nike however created an ad showing various scenes. A woman running, cops running from explosions, bull riders, people hurdling rhinos. If that wasn’t enough to indicate that this is a work of fiction LeBron James participating in a dunk competition certainly was.

The ad features a narrator telling people to pick fights with people their own size and to challenge their superiors.

From the about section on the YouTube page:

"We’re all capable of a little more — a little faster, a little higher, a little stronger, a little more. And when we look at all of the little things we’ve done, we’ll see the big things we’re doing."

It ends with a kid who is going to take on LeBron James, but the announcer tells him to “hold on, we’ve been waiting for this.”

Bleacher Report

You have to wait till the end of the commercial to see the “dunk-off” as it is titled in the ad. BR has made a gif of if here.
