NBA 2K13 Cover Athletes Are Kevin Durant, Blake Griffin and Derrick Rose

[BSchwartz07]

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

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.

Even though I figured this after all you sleuths decoded the message with out Orphan Annie's secret decoder ring (Drink More Ovaltine) I still think its a smack in the face to Lebron. I guess those dudes move units but KD just lost to Lebron in the Finals, Blake is overrated in my eyes, and D.Rose probably won't even play next season.

I'm really surprised they did not put MJ on the cover again. Having that guy on the cover is a huge selling point! Glad to see D Rose on there, hope he heals fast and effectively!

LOL at Rose's face

Good choices but bad cover

[Kentucky_Wildcat23]

I feel like Dirk, Durant, and LeBron should be on the cover. Last years Finals MVP, 3 time Scoring Champ, and 3 time MVP, this years Finals MVP and Champ!

The visual effects and the stylistics are the same as the NBA 2k12 were, they probably got this one from the same author with a discount

Good choices but bland

cover sucks. Give Durant his own cover, and stop changing stuff. Covers are meant for ONE athlete IMO, and he deserves it after 2011s gaming debacle. I wouldnt say Bron is a lock for NBAL. They have had some surprising cover athletes so you never know with them.

NBA 2K’s ‘New Dynasty’ huh.....could that mean were getting a revamped dynasty bka association mode? Could that be one of the big announcements? hmmmmm

Personally, I hate multiple cover boys on sports games. I love Blake, KD, and Rose though. Rose, by himself would've been an awesome pick.

I'm pretty sure 2K chose their cover athletes before the NBA Finals started. If they would have picked LeBron and the Heat lost, 2K would have been in a terrible situation.

Not really, his season performance by itself was warrant enough for the cover.

I wish D.Rose was the cover guy. He has done a lot of work with 2k over the years and I thought they were grooming him to be the cover athlete for years to come.

Kevin Durant is a great choice although he was on NBA Lives cover the year they didn't release. So KD you lucked up buddy boy.

Blake.....well atleast we will get an updated model with his correct afro and beard.

Interesting that two of these guys have been on the cover of EA basketball games before (Griffin and Durant).
