Cobalt/corvette commercial.... basketball or kickball?

Would you say the ball in the corvette/cobalt commercial is a kickball/dodgeball or would you say its a basketball. I say its a kickball, my boss thinks its a basketball. The video here on cobaltss.net with only the cobalts is to difficult to see.

I think it's a kickball. Kickballs are red and bounce more than a basketball

I totally agree, that red ball looks absolutely nothing like a basketball. I associated it with kickball right away. I didn't really think about dodgeball though, but that makes sense too.

Personally, I thought it was more like a stickball game on the streets...
I suppose its closer to kickball though..definately not basketball..wheres the hoop?

Indeed it is the same song and GM was pi$$ed at the marketing company that double sold it to them both. I would be too, it totally ruined the ad campaign, the Cobalt was supposed to get more advertising than it has.
