‘Imagine’ how good the Cleveland Cavaliers can be, once all the major parts are healthy, and ready to go?
In his first year back with the Cleveland Cavaliers, LeBron James led them to the NBA Finals where the Golden State Warriors defeated them in six games. James said he hoped that he “was an inspiration” for Cleveland and the entire state of Ohio.
Nike believes his Finals run was inspiring, and in a new ad campaign, commend the Cavs for their season and James for his leadership.
The text for the ad reads:
“Imagine if Lebron came home to Cleveland.
Imagine if the team struggled early but finished the regular season strong.
Imagine if their big man went down, but they still found a way to power through the Eastern Conference.
Imagine if they faced the top seed in the Finals.
Imagine if they pushed Game 1 to overtime but lost another start to injury.
Imagine if everyone counted them out.
Imagine if they shocked the world and took the next two games.
Imagine if fatigue caught up with them, and they lost Games 4 and 5.
Imagine if they defied odds, logic and the basketball gods to come back and win the series in 7.
Except this isn’t Hollywood. It’s Cleveland.
Nothing is given. Everything is earned.”
