Anyone else digging the AT&T commercials with Christian Laettner et al?

Laettner is hilarious with his deadpan delivery. It is pure genius, in my opinion, as it plays into the perception of him being cocky, etc. I think he is seriously good (and looks a lot older than 45). I wonder if he's being groomed for something more, what with the commercials and the I Hate Christian Laettner show on ESPN's 30 For 30 this month.
 
I like them, and...

I am really critical of most ads.

In the one where Shaq crashes the glass table, Laettner, as the camera blurs the close up, can be seen dipping his chip into the bowl on the floor which has fallen due to Shaq's dunk. Wonder if Laettner added this clever touch on his own. or if it was part of the script.
