You ever think he didn't want to?

Unfortunately, this is about the only place you'll see Derrick Rose this year. Get well DR, love you man!

WAAAAAY too many people despise LeBron. There would be people that wouldn't buy the game just because he is on the cover.

As for the rest of the cover, strange that they selected Rose, he will miss most of next season... Blake is overrated, and Durant was a good choice. Not an amazing cover, but 2K usually has more to offer in their games than just a new box (...looking at you EA). Can't wait to hear what all they add to this year. I loved 2k11, and was very impressed with 2k12's improvements to it. Not disappointed in either purchase. Here's hoping for a my player mode where you can speed the game up to 5 min quarters... sad but last year's played a little too real. I don't have time to invest well over an hour into every single game of the season.

I like the idea of going from the three legends last year to featuring three superstars of the new generation. I would've thought they would give each his own individual cover and put a small image of Michael Jordan in the corner or something to show he's in the game (if he is/the legends are). Should resonate with the younger fans with no lockout to worry about. But hoping the legends are still in the game

Come on now 2K Sports. Eddy Curry is now an NBA Champion! Give the man some props and take these non-champions off the cover.

I like that idea! Hope they keep the legends. Also, I'd like to see the World competitions added in an olympic year. Would be a fun addition to the offseason of your franchise to see your young superstar rep the USA. Could even add old "Dream Teams" in the classic mode.
