BTW, they used (and highly edited) the recording of
Henson's original tune throughout - up to Kermit's voiced outro -

...in which THAT is Steve Whitmire

Haha...Aww, what a cute little appearance! Although, I'd love to see Kermit actually playing basket ball...

Thanks for posting that. Haven't seen that spot since it last aired on TV in the mid-90's.

Yeah, I have to say that I was watching this slip recently, and I noticed a difference in Kermit's voice when he said "I love this game!" Fun stuff! :smile:

Yes, the spot aired after Jim's death in the mid-90's,
and that voice doing the outro ON Kermit is Steve Whitmire

The Sesame Street Muppets were also in an NBA commercial around 2002-2003.
