GUILDFORD, UK – Wednesday, June 25, 2008 – Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: ERTS) announced today that Chicago Bulls forward, Luol Deng, will be the cover athlete and spokesman for NBA LIVE 09 in the UK. Deng, raised in the UK from 1993, has played in the NBA for three years and is a vital part of the Great Britain national team. This is the first time the UK has worked with a local athlete and highlights the continued growth of the NBA in Europe.
“I’m proud to be the first British athlete chosen to appear on the NBA Live cover in the UK” said Luol Deng. “It’s an honour to be recognized by EA SPORTS as a UK ambassador for NBA Live 09 and I’m looking forward to playing for the Great Britain National team.”
Deng is joined by some of the NBA’s biggest international stars on packaging around the world, including Los Angeles Lakers Pau Gasol (Spain) and Toronto Raptors Andrea Bargnani (Italy).
Additionally San Antonio Spurs point guard Tony Parker will be the cover athlete and spokesman for NBA LIVE 09 globally. In his seven NBA seasons, the 26 year old is a two-time NBA All-Star, has three NBA championships and was named the 2007 NBA Finals MVP. Parker will be the first European born (France) global cover athlete of NBA LIVE. Off the court, Parker is an avid gamer and won an NBA LIVE 08 tournament against fellow NBA stars at the EA SPORTS All-Star Challenge last February in New Orleans.

OMG DREAMCAST!!!
that thing was the t
I don't think Captain Late ever won a Finals MVP.
ehhh...no. Unless you believe that Greg Oden is already a top fifteen player (ahead of Parker) without playing a single minute in the league.
Where's Joe Johnson on that list? I would take him way before Rip Hamilton (especially if it was a "draft" where youth matters).
I don't think TP deserved it.
2 times (2006,2007)
It's just a cover of a video game.
Still I don't think he deserved it,So really quit ing.

not that special since he's been on the cover of Live in France the last 4 years
Interesting. Looks like theyre going away from the real photos and replacing with images from the game.
no, you should of took some of your own advice.Still I don't think he deserved it,So really quit ing.
The game looks decent, but any EA Sports game looks decent in short vids and pics. I wonder what their gimmick is this year? Famous wives in the crowd?
Yesterday I saw Pierce doing a commercial for this game
That was Live 08.
God his eyes make him look like a crazed crackhead. I feel like last year would have been a more appropriate time to put him on the cover.
2k8 >>>> Live
Live didn't even look very impressive in that promo.
Parker doing his thing for the game:
