Check out the BBC blog for our latest entry: Kobe and LeBron’s Latest Nike Ad Contains Gun Reference.

Is the NBA being sensitive or are they overacting when it comes to gun references?

Guns are a fun and useful sport when used in the right ways (such as hunting) by the right people, but the only "shots" that I wanna hear about in the NBA are the ones going thru the basket by the Cavaliers and other athletic NBA stars.

Good write up. NBA over reacted. Like the article said, people know difference between brining a gun to locker room and using a gun-related term.

Nice write up. I understand where the NBA is coming from but they over reacted. Also, if a NBA player shot someone with a gun NIKE would have still ran the same exact add. They don't care.
