The NBA recently launched a new ad campaign, "Where Amazing Happens," which kills the heck out of that creepy David Blaine campaign they were doing last season. Print ads are starting to come out, and you can view three of the commercials here: Immovable, Anticipation, and Heart. There will be team-specific iterations down the road as well.
We at the NBA FanHouse quite like the classiness of the ads and the emphasis on the game's emotional connection with fans. But if you were to survey the kind of stuff that gets written around here, you might come up with a slightly different set of "Where [Blank] Happens" images that resonate with us.
The following parody commercial is inspired by posts right here at FanHouse. Hey NBA, if you're looking for a new ad mastermind, holler at your girl!

7. Gooden shaved it i believe, but really good work on the parody. The actual NBA ad uses the same music as the big Halo 3 ad
