ESPN’s promo for Clippers vs. Mavs is DeAndre Jordan and Mark Cuban yelling set to Phil Collins
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
It’s hard to believe this ESPN promo for Clippers vs. Mavericks is real, and not some fan-made machination -- but it totally is. You know, it might be the best promo they’ve ever done.
Obviously the angle here is DeAndre Jordan vs. the Mavs after their free agency follies this summer, but setting all that to Phil Collins singing “Against All Odds” is a masterstroke. This is obviously THE story when the two teams meet, so why not have some fun with it?
Oh gosh ... Mark Cuban is going to be SO MAD, isn’t he?
