but is that Powerade commercial with LeBron James making those full-court shots for real?

Your'e not the only one who questioned this!  A few of the shots look real but if you notice he shoots a few and you never see the "full" flight of the ball--it disapears through the top of the screen then you see it re-enter as it rips through the net.  If the shots are real then I wonder how many "takes" they had to do.  If they are real then it seems that he didn't have to use a whole lot of effort (he merely made them look like jump shots).  I'm guessing 80-90 feet out.

C'mon guys...he's shooting jumpers from the opposite foul line…effortlessly.  Think about that for a minute.  Nobody cant shoot jumpers that far from the basket with a flick of the wrist.

Well LBJ is indeed 6-8 240 and was the youngest player to ever score 50+ points in an NBA game (56).  Previous record was 30-something.

I had the same question.  It HAS to be fake in my opinion.  Star or not, you don't swish those shots in with ease.

You are so right....but they did one heck of a job staging that commercial.
