Yeah, I know, but there are certain players that seem to me more LIVE-ish, I don't know how to explain it...LOL.

I'd be okay with a Mikki Moore cover. It would be nice to see a cover one of these years featuring a popular role player. I think a Chris "Birdman" Andersen cover would create a cult following.

Does the cover athlete do the motion capture?

# 24 videobastard @ 06/03/09 11:59 AM

I hope its Howard and a sign that they are shifting to a more defense oriented game.

Rose since he's a rising star. Couldn't care less though. They need freaking Artest. I'd love to honestly see Tyrus or some other type of garbage man seeing they're in shortness in the league.

You just did the same exact thing you say you hate when others do: come into a post that you don't care about, then post asking if others actually give a damn on the topic.

As for the topic, it won't be anyone still playing in the Eastern Conference.

Looks like it's gonna be announced before Game 1 tomorrow.

Come back and quote me when I'm wrong.

Pared is correct.. Just found out myself who it will be.

How do you know? tell me who it is!!

# 34 SimBaller @ 06/03/09 03:44 PM

Ooh, I know who it is! Someone in this thread either got it right or wrong!

Yeah, I'm lame.

# 35 Pared @ 06/03/09 03:45 PM

But I wanted Marcin Gortat.

# 36 Fabric @ 06/03/09 04:33 PM

I don't really care who's on the cover. For all I care it could be Jerome James. The only thing that matters is that they've improved the game over 2k9

I just wanted to post the link for the 2k10 homepage where you can read the information about the reveal - I figured there probably were some who, like me, didn't want to rummage through all the garbage on twitter and the 2k boards

I wonder if we will get to see some in-game action or if it will just be a rendered teaser like the KG one last year?

# 37 youvalss @ 06/03/09 05:30 PM

Just give us the 2K10 logo and other logos as PSD file - and we'll make some WONDERFUL covers.

I don't really care, but its just for fun.

# 39 youvalss @ 06/03/09 05:42 PM

Will the cover athlete be attending at the announcement? If so, it can't be anyone from LAL or Orlando...
