Comedic Baller Highlight Reels

To Celebrate the NBA YouTube Channel Reaching 1 Billion Views

— December 14, 2012 — Pop Culture
It’s official, the NBA YouTube channel has officially arrived! With over 1 million subscribers, the NBA YouTube channel just reached 1 billion total views. To mark this crowning achievement, they released a mash up video featuring a ton of hilarious and extraordinary videos featured on their channel.

Included in the mash up is a whole lot of Lebron James, which makes sense since he is arguably the league’s biggest star. The video opens with Lebron facing off against Shaq in a dance off. Next, he’s seen walking into the locker room dressed up as a character from the 1978 movie 'Grease.'

The video continues by showing us amazing shots and dunks from actual on-court action. Blake Griffin, Kobe Bryant, Dwight Howard and Derek Rose are all featured making big plays. The video also includes some funny rookie pranks.
