Kobe Make-A-Wish P.S.A.

Did anyone catch this commercial? I was watching NBA TV and it came on during a break. I turned to do something else and didn't pay much attention until I heard the voice of who was narrating the commercial...none other than Mr. Bryant himself. He doesn't appear in the spot, but he speaks through out the whole commercial with the theme of "what can a wish do?" He contemplates the answers to that question as clips of children in different situations are shown. At the end, he says, "a wish can do anything, all you have to do is believe." (you hear that laker fans? all we have to do is believe)

It was nice to hear him in the commercial because it's for a good cause. It gave a different light to him. It was almost like the opposite of his nike commercial, which was raw and gritty. This commercial was clean and polished, and was for something bigger than him or basketball. Kudos to Kobe for doing that.

Pretty sure there's already a thread on this from about a week ago.

I haven't seen it yet, but most posters from that thread said it was him.

Believe that Kobe will bring us a championship soon.

I hope we see more of these types of efforts. Use the celebrity for real change. (not a 1 commercial revamps the world)

I've never seen that commercial? Do they still televise from time to time?
