You people need to unplug from the Matrix. There is a real world out here.
First Live 08 was the first time ever the default home team was the LOSER of the finals, now the same thing in NBA 08. Only NBA 2k8 even acknowledges the Spurs are champs
pathetic, time for the Spurs to repeat and keep the mass media mad

wtf....
it's not that serious, your comment contributes nothing
Boy, if that wasn't the best shoot-myself-in-the-foot statement at SpursTalk, it's sure close.
I'm with you, bro. In protest, I will not be buying Live 08 or NBA 08.
Again.
NBA 2k8 actually rates TD accurately also, 98
I won't buy that either, just to be safe.
oh im for sure buying 2k8!
last night i was taking everyone on at 2k7 at my buddies house. man i havent played that game in months and i aint rusty at all. i kicked one of my buddies ass's by 32pts and another by 15pts. god i need to get my 360 fixed asap or atleast before 2k8 comes out.
ps: no screen shots of the spurs but hey this one of lj looks nice. i guess they are throwing in the slam dunk contest like live did.
You got 10 days.
don't you mean before Halo comes out? 3 days till we finish the fight!oh im for sure buying 2k8!

i dont own or play any other games besides bball 2k7 and guitar hero(gh is so-so). im not much of a gamer but i do love bball games, well only the 2k sports series. i bought my 360 mainly for 2k7 and that's it.
halo can kiss my... sorry but id rather spend my money on a game i know i will play a lot.
Ahhh, and this thread is riddled with Halo 3 commentary already. Kind of sad. You all realize that no matter how good it is, it's still not going to be close to the best FPS available, right?
*waits anxiously for Crysis*
*Doubts that either game will come close to Counterstrike*
*notes that no one who really considers themselves a gamer or even a sports fan should buy anything from EA, aside from perhaps their hockey games*
yah i seen that when i downloaded the demo. thats really ed up.the game looks badass though
can't wait till NBA2k8 drops in a little over a week
but Halo 3 first =)

No Oberto or Elson at all in the top 25 centers? I know they wouldn't be high but at least around the 20 mark.
Yeah this sucks.... here are the comments made by the author :
NBA 2K8: By the Numbers
Our exclusive look at the ratings of 2K's new baller.
Didn't Tony Parker just win the Finals MVP? Isn't he running the point for the best team in the world right now? Then how is he a point below Chris Paul?
I'm the kind of guy who would sometimes rather look at a box score than watch a game. I don't know what it is, but the numbers of sports are just as fascinating to me as the sports themselves. From memorizing shot percentages to scratching my head at how Iverson can shoot 8-34 from the field and not think he needs practice--all I can say is I'm a sports nerd to the core and if I wasn't typing these very words, I'd probably sitting at the end of a bench somewhere compiling stats for the Warriors.
I guess that's why I'm so addicted to looking at how individual players are rated in the various videogames. Does Gilbert Arenas deserve the same rating as Steve Nash? Is Chris Paul really better than Deron Williams? Who is the best player in the game?
All these answers and more in the latest By the Numbers…
Top 25 Point Guards :
Overrated/Underrated: Didn't Tony Parker just win the Finals MVP? Isn't he running the point for the best team in the world right now? Then how is he a point below Chris Paul? I know CP3 is on the cover, but Parker, like the Spurs in general, always seem to get overlooked on these lists. I'd complain about Rafer Alston being in the Top 25, but he might hit me.
Top 25 Shooting Guards :
Overrated/Underrated: If anyone doubted the fun of running an Association with the Warriors, check out Monta's 84 and Marco Belinelli's 78. Add that to Baron's 93 and solid numbers for Stephen Jackson (they need to add a rating for crazy), and Biedrins and Golden State might be one of the most used teams online this year. Ray Allen at 92 after all these years also makes the Celtics one of the deadlier teams in the game
Top 25 Small Forwards :
Overrated/Underrated: Gerald Wallace told me he gets no respect in the ratings, and I'm starting to believe him. 84 is a decent number, but if you watch the man play, especially on defense, you know he's one of the most valuable small forwards in the game today. The Bobcats could be fun this year with the addition of J-Rich.
Top 25 Power Forwards :
Overrated/Underrated: I know it's just one point, but Pau Gasol being rated higher than Carlos Boozer is terrible. Gasol disappears in the clutch, and if you need to be reminded of this (it's not like the Grizzlies have played any big games lately), watch the tape of Spain losing to Russia this week. Another name that pops out to me is David Lee at 81. Is it me or are the Knicks infinitely better every time that kid gets in the game?
Top 25 Centers :
Overrated/Underrated: You know the big man situation in the league is a farce when you need to find names like Przybilla and Doleac to fill out your Top 25. Greg Oden at 80 breaks my heart. Seems like such a good kid to already be labeled Sam Bowie 2. Oh well, at least you can still play as him in the game. Funny how Bulls fans were so happy to rid themselves of Tyson Chandler, who is basically a younger, cheaper version of Ben Wallace (and only a single point separates them in the game).
Yeah it's in the game alright.
The Oberto's IQ basketball, pass, D,... Some people it doesn't attract that way. Maybe, this is the reason because the spurs also haven't mass support
But, I agree, it's only a game, nothing else.
So, Miller, Doleac, Hawes and not Oberto or Elson? At least Fab and Cisco played in the playoff!
Spurs are on the new commercial. D'ing up against Arenas.
That same commerical also shows Arenas getting the best of Parkerm and the Spurs, at the AT&T Center.
They should've had Bruce Bowen on him, blocking his shot!
In the backdrop, you can see the 3 championship banners hanging from the rafters.

One thing I've always noticed. For screen shots and previews, it's always some hot player torching the Spurs on O.
The last NBA video game I played was NBA Jam for Sega, but you have to think about this from the perspective of business. The Spurs have proven that they don't draw a lot of attention with low ratings Finals. So hyping them up in a video game won't attract as many people as hyping up Lebron or Kobe or someone universally popular across the league.
The Spurs have tons of respect, even though all the crap that happened with the Suns and Donaghy has people calling them dirty, bad boys, and so forth, they have the reputation as the best team in the league because of professionalism and playing good team ball. Who cares if they don't get their due from a playstation game? I'd rather see the Spurs silence the critics with a repeat.
