Quote from: Now_I_Know on June 22, 2006, 04:07:25 PMIt has nothing to do with how good you are, it's about marketing, promotional appearances, etc.Kobe, Lebron, and Wade have all had WAY better seasons then T-Mac and are a LOT more marketable.

My only guess is that Kobe might still be under contract for the courtside series with nintendo,kinda like how Micheal Jordan signed a long ass deal with spacejam basketball to only be in that videogame ,which is why MJ was never on the cover or in any live game until 2000 i think (duncan was on the cover but MJ was in the game if i remember correctly)?
^nah kobe isn't exactly marketable right now. keep in mind that whole rape case shiet just happened 2 years ago. its still risky to put him on the cover.but i dont see how t-mac got it over lebron or nowitzki

WTF? LMAO...Kobe's jersey was in the top 5 in sales this year. People already realize that whole rape case was bullshit, it's only the media that has (and creates) problems with him. Kobe is an EXTREMELY marketable athlete at the moment, anything with his name on it WILL sell...PeACe

Adidas just released his old shoes because of how popular he got this year, especially after 62 in 3 quarters and 81 points...Kobe might be hated and he might not get as many endorsements (though they're coming) as he used to, but to say an athlete of his stature is not marketable is flat out dumb...

who cares what's on the cover? the important thing is for the game to be good
