Official announcement soon, but Gil will be cover boy on NBAlive 08. Rather he'd been on 2K sports game because it's so much better, but NBA Live is more prestigious. Congats Agent Zero!!!
Finally EA picks a good cover boy, Arenas deserves it. Now Bosh can be on the cover of 2K :D......
Well deserved. I probably won't be buying Live though because i've fallen in love with the 2k series.

deserved and glad to see one of my favorite players on there... but 2K is far superior in my mind to live... so i could see this not being that big of a deal

Please that's a joke, your LeBron is the most overrated trash to ever come across the league. He was handed the keys and half of his points are off of bs calls from the refs, the NBA informs the refs to give him calls so he can succeed. Poor baby cries and the refs are quick to help him. He is an awful shooter and defender. Just look at this bs play of course the announcers don't want to talk about it cause it's the sweetheart LeBron but what the hell. First off there is no way in hell it's a foul. But the worse part is Lebron makes the shot. No call made Wizards already inbounding the ball but because LeBron is crying like a beeyatch they blow the whistle so much later and call a foul on Etan Thomas. Wish I could find a clip with sound but it's horrible. When the ref raises his arm that's when he blows the whistle and makes the call, you tell me what you think of it, if it weren't LeBron well all know it wouldn't have happened.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yva-vkIzoro. Look at the video watch the refs eyes, no call made until he looks at LeBron on the ground crying, he never saw the play, and it wasn't even a foul to begin with, glad to see the league caught with its pants down.

How do you figure?
I was a fan of Arenas before this year, but this season really turned me away from him. Not only do I not like him, but I'm starting to hate him.

I see they must be focused on defense this year.
Ghettosermon riddle me this.
Who shot a lower FG% than Gilbert Arenas out of the top 40 scorers in the league?
Who plays less defense than Gilber Arenas?

Steve Nash? Snuff dont talk NBA, stick to Michigan football. That one was just thrown in to make fun of his terrible defense.. I don't even know if Steve Nash plays defense our not... But I am still pretty sure Nash does more on offense... So yeah, great argument.

ya were ahead 2-0 wizards suck
Heres an idea. How about when Caron and Arenas are healthy we take the Cavs two best players away and see how they fair against a healthy wizards team in a 7 game series. Its injuries (and yourself) that sucks not the Wizards.

yeah. 2 and a half steals per game is terrible defense.

Eh, steals really dont have much to do with being a great defender at all.

I prefer 2K to Live and hopefully they'll get someone more current than Shaq to be on the cover this year.

Maybe Gilbert will stop whining about how he's direspected now. It's getting really annoying.
The Bulls direspected me, Coach K disrespected me, D'Antoni disrespected me, the entire NBA disrespects me....Just shut up already.

to be honest, thats why i like gilbert so much. he rose up against the odds. but he is so weird. online poker at half time, taking showers in his jersies, and the whole air pressure deal in his house. they all make me lol.

I agree with this post. Agent zero is the best 08 cover choice.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_oDM_1Ad6I&mode=user&search=:This is why I love Gilbert, other guys will do video game covers just for the advertising and money, but Gilbert is like a little kid in a candy store, he actually takes something like this as an honor, he is a good character for the NBA, keeps it lighthearted and in control.
