Electronic Arts announced today that Houston Rocket forward Tracy McGrady will be gracing the cover of this year's NBA Live game.

 

NBA Live 07 will introduce "Total Freestyle Control," a new feature that gives users more control over characters as well as advancements to features like All-Star Weekend and Dynasty Mode.

 

"I've always looked upon the EA SPORTS athletes as fan favorites so I'm honored to be named this year's NBA LIVE 07 cover athlete and join the EA SPORTS family," said McGrady.

 

McGrady, a two-time NBA scoring champ and a six-time NBA All-Star, will serve as a spokesperson and centerpiece for the zerg of NBA Live 07 merchandise set to launch this fall on all available consoles and PCs around the world.

Guy just doesn't carry the stardom he once had, but the cover looks good.

I'd rather have posey on the cover.

Who did T-Mac's agent/publicist blow to get him on the cover?

this is reminiscent of EA putting Vince Carter on the cover after he missed so much time due to injury

on 1st and 10 the other day they were saying Wade was on the cover last year and the heat won it... will the Rockets win it this year?

 

and Skip and Woody both said hell no. :lol

Who did T-Mac's agent/publicist blow to get him on the cover?
