The NBA Messes with Zohan

You may have seen the continuous split screen commercials running to promote the 2008 NBA Playoffs. They feature 1 NBA star from each team in a playoff series, but on a split screen, saying the same lines together about fear and how it means they're ready for the playoffs. Recent versions include Paul Pierce vs. Mike Bibby and Chris Paul vs. Tim Duncan. Some of the faces sorta matchup too.

A funny spoof ad ran on Sunday during the ABC games to promote the new Adam Sandler movie, "You Don't Mess with the Zohan". It showed Zohan (Sandler) with his wild hairstyle on one side of the screen with Baron Davis of the Warriors on the other side. They tried to say the lines together, but it just didn't work out and Zohan must instruct Baron.
