The theme of the week at Starting5 has been 'inspiration'. From Corey Williams blog about inspiring we found inspiration to hopefully inspire you with some inspirational basketball commercials. Wow, try saying that really fast. Anyway, Corey's blog got us thinking. Inspiration can come from anywhere at just about anytime. One particular thing may inspire one person to achieve more than what they thought possible while on others it may have no affect at all. Since we are a basketball website we got to talking about basketball commercials that have moved us over the years, a lot have been humorous, some introspective, some have been nostalgic and many have been all of the above.
