Yo, let’s rewind to the electric era of ‘90s and early 2000s sneaker commercials that had us glued to our boxy TVs, buzzing with hype! These weren’t just ads—they were cultural moments, dripping with swagger, star power, and straight-up creativity.
These commercials weren’t just marketing—they were cultural bangers that defined an era, made sneakerheads lose their minds, and turned kicks into legends.
Which one’s got you hyped? Leave us a comment below!

Balling through thick and thin, a mysterious connection formed between two hoopers from different basketball upbringings.

This is a space where Hoop ‘n’ Harm will cover everything from hoops, music, lifestyle, and culture, while rediscovering forgotten gems.

EP1 - NBA NEW DYNASTY - 90S/2K AND MORE | MC O’LATE & MC AIN’T NO WAY | THE PLAYFUL PODCAST | HOOP ‘n’ HARM

HELLO WORLD!

In our first-ever episode, we tipped off The Playful Podcast by throwing it back to the ’90s, discussing how the game evolved from close-range, high-percentage shots to today’s over extended three pointers.

We also talked about the legend who forced a defensive rule change in the NBA in the early 2000s—can you guess who this icon is? Plus, we explored the origins of Golden State’s small-ball style, a.k.a. “Run & Gun” a.k.a. “7-Second Offense,” and the brilliant minds behind it.

What makes Steph Curry the greatest shooter of all time? How does he make it look so effortless, and is he changing the game for better or worse?

Last but not least, we’re breaking down this year’s NBA Playoffs Final Four, from East to West. Join us on Hoop ‘n’ Harm: The Playful Podcast!
