Sprite NBA Dunk Contest Commerical Audition Poem

Sprite NBA Dunk Contest Commerical Audition Poem
11-10-09

Have you ever seen the top of the world?
Where the Shutter speeds of the Stars work to freeze elegance.
Frozen Moments in the solitude of silence with lights shining bright,
These Kings soar through the heavens.
We sip, they glide, and open our eyes with laughter and...
"Did you see that?!"

Did you see Dominique's cradles that curl brow lines, and Jordan's takeoffs from the foul line?
From birthday wish bandits to Carter's elbow in baskets.
Nate leap-frogs Goliath, cheer levels rise higher!
Some nights are made for the unbelievable, the magic of moments made possible by the greatness of Two...

A new decade now arises to witness great feats,
Of cunning and daring, of power and grace.
When the backyards and the playgrounds collide,
Where the Legends reside,
And the game of Five becomes one.

This is the NBA Dunk contest, this is the dream...
This is Sprite; Liquid magic, the tonic of Kings
