One of the worst covers I've seen on a sport game. You'd think they would at least have him playing basketball, seeing as it's a basketball game.

I think it would be a much better cover without his giant head in the background.

Flopping really is getting a bit crazy in the playoffs this year. I don't mind who they pick for the cover, just want the game to improve in major areas.

The nike billboard he had in Cleveland with the powder toss would make for a better cover.

I miss the covers with Magic, Jordan, and Bird. That was the last cool cover that 2K had. This one and last years are sub par.

People care entirely too much about the cover... There are legit complaints about 2k13 (the physics on dunks is terrible), that should be fixed, I couldn't care less about the cover

My problems with 2K was always the cheating rubberband AI that always made the computer make every shot. Haven't played a 2K game since 2K10 for that reason

yeah that still happens in 2k13, on legend it's even worse but superstar is not as bad, I can always tell when the CPU intentionally makes me miss or the computer is going to make a run and you can't do much to stop them. my problem has always been the passing, it's broken and on fast breaks even if you attempt a bounce pass a lot of the times the CPU deflects it, that's my main gripe the rest I can live with

My biggest problem with 2K is how the game basically rewards you (in 2k13 at least) for doing nothing but chucking 3s with some perimeter star the whole game. Jumpshots seem a million times easier to convert than looks at the rim, it's maddening.

Can you run a fast break in 2k13? In 2k12, everyone either heads right at the rim behind any defender or leaks to the short corner and runs out of bounds. A two-on-one is either a missed lay-up or a stolen pass. I can't handle it (though I play 2k12 all the time). I just want to know stuff like this and rubberband AI is fixed before shelling out $60 for a new game. Lame cover.

Both of those things bugged the hell out of me in 2k12. They're still issues (somewhat) in 2k13 but they're definitely much more manageable. In 2k13 I can actually score on 2-on-1 fast breaks most of the time; I used to dread them in 2k12 since I knew the result would always be an intercepted pass.

I haven't had too much of an issue with rubberband AI either, usually when the computer makes their run in the 4th quarter I can stop their momentum with a timeout and things get back to normal.

Nope. I'm a Cavs fan. Sig was just too good to pass up, and Dooling was an obvious choice for 51.

The music in 2k13 was so awful. The songs themselves were fine but then the problem was that they had to censor out almost entire verses and I just sat there thinking "what's the point :|". The only songs that weren't censored were like Coldplay songs and who the **** wants to listen to Coldplay in a basketball game? Hopefully Lebron picks things that won't require half of the song to be censored

Well past NBA games have had hip-hop too but the censoring was never quite as noticeable as it was in 2k13. It was to the point where it just butchered the original songs. It was probably because of Jay-Z. I'm guessing people who picked the soundtracks in past games purposely picked songs that didn't need quite as much censoring but then Jay likely didn't take that into account and just said "I like these songs so put them in the game". I'm guessing it'll be the same problem this year with Lebron picking the music.

They censored it because the actual game is rated E for everyone.

Too much Jay Z. 2K11 and 2K12 had way better soundtracks because there was more variety.
