For Real??

Has anyone seen that commercial for Powerade featuing Le Bron James? It shows what seems to be game-day footage of James practising his shooting and draining about 4 or 5 of them in a row from 80 feet while a reporter says to his cameraman, "Do we have that? We have that, right?".

I've seen it a couple times, and I'm still not convinced its real. I don't think anyone can shoot from 80 feet out straight on with barely any kind of jump. Most guys have to do a run-up of sorts to get it that far. But even if its digital effects, its a pretty darn cool commercial, that's for sure...
