Kevin Durant x Brandon Jennings x Stephen Curry Talk About NBA Elite 2011

In a Dime Magazine exclusive – Kevin Durant, Brandon Jennings, and Stephen Curry talk about EA Sports’ newest offering – NBA Elite 2011 (with KD35 on the cover).  It’s cool hearing what these rising NBA stars have to say about the game but I think in 6 month’s they’ll have a 360 controller in hand with this CD popped in the console.

Kevin Durant Named Cover Athlete For NBA Elite 2011

It looks like EA Sports scrapped the NBA Live title and renamed it NBA Elite.  Why though?!  In terms of basketball videogames, the NBA Live name has practically been there since day 1.  Maybe they think a new name will help them catch back up to the popularity of the NBA 2K series.  All due respect to Kevin Durant, but Michael Jordan’s 2K11 cover is going to be better than yours.  It’s ironic too because I only play with the Oklahoma City Thunder in NBA 2K10.
