Dwyane Wade misunderstood with T-Mobile

Leaders from Glossier, Shopify, Mastercard and more will take the stage at Brandweek to share what strategies set them apart and how they incorporate the most valued emerging trends. Register to join us this September 23–26 in Phoenix, Arizona.

T-Mobile features some cautionary tales for basketball celebs in its new spots, created by Publicis Seattle, directed by Spike Lee and featuring a Nike-esque cavalcade of cameos. In one of the 60-second spots, Dwyane Wade learns the perils of posting video Facebook updates from the bathroom. In another, posted after the jump, Charles Barkley becomes an unwitting YouTube sensation when his game commentary is autotuned into a dance hit. I'm not quite sure which part I find more unbelievable: bathroom doors that lock from the outside, or Barkley being able to spell a seven-letter word.
