They just did it -- Nike has finally decided to give back the tapes they confiscated showing LeBron James getting dunked on by a college kid.
Nike henchmen took the tapes from two accredited journalists moments after Xavier's Jordan Crawford threw it down on King James at his Nike sponsored summer skills camp earlier this month.
The decision to take the tapes ignited a huge controversy and speculation that the Swoosh didn't want LeBron, a huge Nike spokesperson, to be seen in a bad light.
Nike claims it only snatched the tapes based on a policy that no pickup games be filmed.
But now -- 2 days after TMZ released the first copy of the dunk -- Nike is finally doing the right thing. However, it's unclear when they will hand the tapes back to the journalists.

Obviously LeBitch and Nike did since they stole kids tapes to cover it up? What a moron
What's the big deal about getting dunked on? You should ask LeBron and Nike that. This would have blown over a LONG time ago if they hadn't tried to hush hush it.
Philip Knight is a jerk. Nike trying to confiscate these tapes proves it. Stop buying Nikes or any of their products and send Philip Knight the sweatshop mogul to the poor house.
TMZ already showed the tapes. Nike giving tapes back is PR fluff.
baby want a bottle?
1. boo hoo
The term is imitation of the sound of someone crying or sobbing. It is often seen written, like in cartoon speech balloons. Less often, a person may say it aloud in an affected way to convey sadness or disappointment. Can be used sarcastically.
Hey BAWHAHAHAHAHAHHAA!!!.......Relax there man...I know Obama is to blame for everthing wrong in this world, I can't believe that he hasn't figured out the solution to world hunger in the 7 months he's been in power. I bet if Obama could walk on water you'd be the one saying.... LOOK HE CAN'T EVEN SWIM!!!
Jesus people, not eveyrthing is a cover up. There's nothing notable about the footage anyway
