[hotsauce2007]

nba 2k9- dwight howard- one of the best big men in the league many people cant say that he doesnt deserve it.

nba live 2009- lebron james- probz the best player in the league why doesnt he desrve it? hes a team player the announcers and commentators are always saying that the game is returning to a team 5 sport thanks to lebron (the king)

nba 09- deron williams- one of the most entertainnig players this year deserves to be on a game cover through playing and personality doesnt make amountain out of a mole hill plays the game how it should be played.

[benJAMin]

I agree with Howard and Deron. I'd throw Rudy and Roy and maybe Caron out there as well. Wouldnt be surprised to see Oden or Durant too.

LeBron would be perfect obviously. What's up with him not being on a cover yet?

[New Jazzy Nets]

d12 is on ballerz or ballaz or ballas whatever it may be. so he wont be on 2k9. I could see Dirk, Deron, Nash, CP3(again), Pierce. Possibly even Manu or yao.

EA wanted him on Live 2008, but he wanted too much money for the appearance, so they got Gilbo on it instead.

[notorious ai3]

i think baron davis is due for one. but he probably won't get one this year cuz the warriors didn't make the playoffs.

[ukballer]

NBA 2K9 - Deron Williams/Brandon Roy
NBA 09 - I was thinking Amare, but I remembered he'd already done NBA 06
NBA Live 2009 - Kevin Durant (Was involved in the commercials for 2008, maybe they were grooming him for the next game cover)

I wonder how hard it would be to get LeBron on a cover, considering all his other endorsements?

[B-Mac]

My own list:

NBA 2k8 - LeBron/CP3(again)

NBA live 2008 - KG ???

NBA 08 - Deron

[ukballer]

I got a feeling if they are going get LeBron on a cover, they might wait a few more years. I mean he's still young! They don't want to use him too early perhaps? Or maybe EA and 2K Sports have been fighting for his signature all these years and getting nowhere! :oldlol:

[Zak]

Would cp3 be too happy about D-Wil stealing his game cover?

[bballog]

My own list:

NBA 2k8 - LeBron/CP3(again)

NBA live 2008 - KG ???

NBA 08 - Deron
KG was already on NBA Live 01

[B-Mac]

KG was already on NBA Live 01

Or maybe 'The Big Three'(KG, Ray & Pierce)

[bballog]

Or maybe 'The Big Three'(KG, Ray & Pierce)
actually thats an excellent idea and im not saying that because imma celtics fan

[Aldridge Fan]

NBA 2K9 - Deron Williams/Brandon Roy

BR. That would be cool.

I think Chris Paul might get the cover this year though. The guy is playing remarkable in the playoffs with insane numbers.

He's on 2k8. But he might be for another year ?

[NY Comeback]

2k8- Dwight Howard
NBA 09- Why not go with Amare one more time? :oldlol:
NBA Live '09- I wouldn't be too surprised if Kobe got this. Considering the Lakers are somewhat relevant again.

[KNOW1EDGE]

NBA 2k9 - Deron Williams

NBA Live 2009 - Brandon Roy

NBA 09 - Kevin Durant

Goin with the young guys

Co-signed. Though because of the work he did with EA last year in the commercials with Gil, I think EA might have been prepping KD as their coverboy for this next game. So it could be Durant on Live 09, Roy/Willams on NBA 09. But you never know.

[jbot]

i'd bring back chris paul. the kid deserves it.:bowdown:

[lbkingjames_fan]

for nba 2k9 : Lebron James

for nba live 2009 : Brandon Roy

for nba 09: Kevin Garnett

Is this photoshop or not ?

[Copperhead]

It's possible since 2K have used the same player for back to back years before (Shaq, Iverson).

[Get_RiGhT]

i think
nba live 09 - kobe or Garnett.
If Lakers acquisition O'brian Cup , then NBA LIVE 09 cover is kobe.
If Boston acquisition O'brian Cup , then NBA LIVE 09 cover is Garnett.
:banana:

nba 2k9 - Dwight Howard or Chirs Bosh
nba 09 - i don't know Turkoglu?

Fixed

[Kebab Stall]

I think Dwight might get the cover of NBA 2k9. He became pretty popular because of the Dunk Contest and I'm pretty sure plenty of casual fans will recognise him instantly. He's popular, a great player, plays for a popular team and will look good on the cover.

[brdman1980]

GameCinema HD just put out a trailer for NBA Live 09. While the announcement won't come out till tomorrow, Tony Parker has been announced as the cover athlete for NBA Live 2009. Finals MVP last year...led the Spurs this year..he deserves it.

[v-unit]

NBA 2k9 cover is already said to be Kevin Garnett. You can see pictures and the trailer on the website, graphics look unbelievable.

2K Sports today announced that 11-time NBA All-Star and 2008 Defensive Player of the Year Kevin Garnett of the Boston Celtics will be featured as the cover athlete and spokesman for this year’s most highly anticipated basketball video game, NBA 2K9. After leading the Boston Celtics to the greatest single-season turnaround in NBA franchise history, Garnett will lend his unmatched passion and on-court intensity to provide dedicated fans with the most fun and riveting basketball simulation experience available.

[Raj Da Dodge]

So I've always wondered how they choose who's gonna be on the cover for the video games, like NBA Live and Madden and NBA 2ks and all that?

[v-unit]

Whoever gives the best head.

Like I was saying earlier..that's not the cover..that's a Photoshop fake. The cover's Tony Parker...GameCinema HD revealed a preview today..it'll be announced tomorrow.

It's done by marketability, talent, and the guy who they believe has the best chance to really step their game up that particular year.

Well NBA 2k9 and NBA Live 2009 are official, but I guessed on NBA 09, I don't know who's gonna be on the cover for NBA 09. And I didn't want Parker on Live 2009 either, but oh well.

[B-Mac]

Why TP????

Lol, just another reason not to get Live....j/k Live fans

[Darius07]

Why does Parker look so angry in the traailer? Looks like Hulk without all the green. Kinds scares me to bye the game...
