The latest Google Pixel 7 advertisement featured Milwaukee Bucks’ Giannis Antetokounmpo and other superstars. The ad shows a new photo editing feature that can apparently fix pictures by erasing certain parts of the image. It can erase a person, text, or object from the image. Additionally, the feature can remove background blur and noise. Hilariously, Giannis used the tool to erase himself from a picture in which Jaylen Brown was dunking on him.
During the post-game press conference, a reporter asks the star, “Giannis, what about that dunk in the third quarter?” In the ad, the two-time MVP quickly edits a picture of Brown dunking on him. He uses the tool and erases himself, and says, “what dunk?”
The Google Pixel commercial also features comedian Amy Schumer and singer/rapper Doja Cat, who are all shown in the commercial fixing pictures. Schumer erases the picture of her ex, and Doja Cat restores a blurred image.
Giannis Antetokounmpo is well renowned for his sense of humor. This commercial demonstrated the Greek Freak’s tremendous wit yet again.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is envious of the freedom Giannis Antetokounmpo gets to play with
Since joining the Bucks in 2013, Giannis Antetokounmpo has gone on to become one of the most dominant forces in the league. Since his rookie season, he has honed his skills and completely changed his playing style. At the beginning of his career, the Greek Freak hardly had any handles outside the paint. Watching his game now, he has progressively improved his overall playing approach. He can shoot from mid-range and beyond the arc, and he has improved as a playmaker.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar recently stated in an interview after LeBron James broke his scoring record that he is envious of Giannis because he can rebound and bring the ball forward. According to the NBA legend, it was almost a gospel in his time that the rebounder, especially a big man, couldn’t bring the ball over. Replying to the six-time NBA champion, Gainnis said, “If Kareem could have handled the ball all over the court and created his own baskets, he would have scored 52,000 points“.
