GetYourBasketBallOn.com <--what is the point of this site?

10 replies
Hello All,

Last night at the bar I saw a commercial for this website. The commercial was like the cleverest thing ever...however I dont understand what they are trying to accomplish with it. They direct you to their website www.getyourbasketballon.com

There is nothing on that site that they are selling, so how are they planning to make their money back on the ad?

Is this simply a site for self-promotion?

Any thoughts?

    He seems to have a lot of DVD's on sale on that website.

    That's a really good website, though. Even his introduction was entertaining.

    Hi DBBrock1:

    Hope you are well. The site is not ready yet but if I read correctly it will be for LeRoy Smith. He is a motivator and may have had Michael Jordan the former National Basketball Association legend as a client.

    He is starting to market himself for the site via TV, internet buzz, and YouTube.

    Hope this helps!

    Is it just me or does this guy look like Charlie Murphy (Eddie Murphy's brother) from The Chappell Show with Dave Chappell?

    Yeah, this is certainly Charlie Murphy now that I watch the videos...lol

    This is all a spoof and a funny one at that.

    Definitely a spoof. There was never any Leroy Smith who motivated MJ. He never needed it ;-)

    It's awesome though!

    To me it looks like Eddie Murphy with make up. Anyway when you look at the vid you can tell it's just a joke.

    Could be viral marketing for an upcoming movie/sitcom/something.

    It's a Nike campaign, and that's Charlie Murphy, Eddie's brother.
