You know that Spalding basketball commercial where Paul Pierce is playing streetball inside a completely enclosed, and apparently inescapable, out-door court? You know the one where he blocks a shot and the ball bounces about eighty feet over a spike fence and gets lost in an bottomless alley? They're all stuck, because there are ten players and only one of them thought of bringing a basketball. To a basketball court. To play basketball.
Someone says, "Little man got a ball!" and Pierce gets that poor kid to give him his Infusion basketball by letting the air out and pushing it through a bend in the fence, instead of just taking his Mercedes to Sports Authority to buy another one. "Little Man" smiles while he's doing it, too.
Little Man, a multi-millionaire just stole your basketball. Poor kid.
