Regardless, it would give 2k WAY too much controversy, and with Live/Elite/whatever coming back, they can't afford it, at this point.

Are you being serious here?

Please - what type of "controversy" would arise from putting this player on the cover?

Must admit I laughed at that statement

Ain't no controversy going to be stirred

I doubt Lebron will ever be on a cover, From what i've read he has a clause in his contract with Nike in which he can't, idk but i have always wondered how guys like Melo and Ben Wallace were cover athletes before lebron, and i don't even like the guy.

I seriously doubt Nike is preventing him that'd be a bizarre thing for them to do. And him not being on any covers yet may be a money/image thing top guys like Tom Brady or Peyton Manning or even Jordan till 2k11 have skipped being on covers.

I'm talking about all the Lebron haters boycotting the game, because of who's on the cover. Maybe controversy wasn't the right word, but I don't really appreciate being insulted, thanks. But with Live/Elite coming back, they can't have people boycotting the game.

It's Durant and Lebron

2K must've saved up some cash to be able to buy out Durant from EA.

With all due respect, that wouldn't happen; be serious. "All the Lebron haters" wouldn't think of not buying a game just because James is on the cover. I'm a HUGE UNC fan and I bought College Hoops 2K7 despite you-know-who being on the cover and I loved the game.

I don't get why people get wrapped up in not liking a cover, or thinking others won't like it. YOU DON'T PUT THE COVER IN THE SYSTEM--YOU PUT THE GAME DISC IN.

Do you really think all LeBron haters will pass on it if he's on the cover? Kobe has as many or more haters (including moi), and I doubt that all these haters passed on the game. I'm sure MJ has many many haters, yet the game sold very well since he's been on the cover. Boycotting a game because of a cover is a thing for online forums. At the end of the day, even haters still put the disc in their console. At least that's what I think. No disrespect to your opinion, though.

I think that some might do it. There are some really irrational people out there. And in a year that's VERY important for 2k, as this is their last sports franchise alive, they can't afford to go with someone who's loved by maybe 25% of fans and hated by the rest. Just my opinion, man.

I'm sure there was a decent amount of people who did skip on it, but not enough to make a difference. However, this year, 2k needs people buying their game, for the reasons I listed earlier in this post. I'd never boycott the game because of its cover, but there are people that I think would (I have a few friends who definitely would), and it's a lot safer to get guys that are, for the most part, liked, like Griffin, Rose, and Durant. Just my opinion.

If 2k13 is a success, though, I wouldn't be surprised to see Lebron on 2k14, or 15.

Lebron was on 1 of the Sony's NBA cover along with 5 other stars, Kobe being among them.

Peace
