NBA Fun Police

Does anyone remember the NBA Fun Police? The NBA ran an ad campaign in the very late 90's with NBA players as the Fun Police (Gary Payton, Tim Hardaway, and Kevin Garnett were among the players on the Fun police). That about all I remember. Does anyone else know what I'm talking about?

I remember. Also, there was J-Kidd and Keith Van Horn. I remember the commercial with GP and Kidd. They barge into a house, there's a kid holding a ball, they read his stats from a game(like 20 points, 0 assists) and then they're like "Pass the ball man, just pass the ball." Then the kids mom goes, "Honey, just pass the good man the ball." But he can't because he's such a ballhog.
