chris bosh

[jumbag]

is it chris bosh for live 09?

its on wikipedia.. bosh or (king james, deron, and pierce)

but i want to see deron on 09. =))

It's not Bosh. He said it himself on his forums.

[MVP24]

I think Lebron James.

I'd suggest whomever added that information to the Wikipedia article was simply basing it on popular speculation. I would also suggest there are more candidates than that to make the cover (or were, if a decision has already been made and is forthcoming).

[BIG GREEN]

I think Lebron James.

It will be a long time if ever that we'll see lebron on the cover of any video game. I'm sure partly due to his financial demands.

[Andrew]

How lucrative do deals like that have the potential to be though? Any player who's approached to appear on the cover probably realises the deal is going to be pretty modest next to their NBA contract or shoe deal.

[BIG GREEN]

Perhaps...or maybe he could be holding out for a title game named after himself that would definitly be lucrative considering the current video gaming market. I remember kobe bryant having pretty much his own basketball game back in the late 90's for the N64



...other examples would be magic vs. bird by EA, barkley's shut up and jam and ofcourse..shaq fu (which i enjoyed btw).

[Andrew]

True, that would probably be more lucrative for him.

I picked LeBron when the topic came up in NBA Live General a while back but I still think the suggestion of Kevin Durant being the cover player is a good one too. He's had a past association with EA having appeared on the March Madness cover and in the NBA Live 08 commercials with Arenas. Like Carmelo Anthony, he might "graduate" to the Live cover this year.

Bosh or Lebron would be good candidates for Live 2010's cover

I think if Bosh was on the cover it would of looked like this....
