Will LeBron & The Heat Take On Jordan in NBA 2K11?

by Matthew Kato on Jul 10, 2010 at 02:00 PM

The Decision has been decided, and now we wait... We won't get to see how LeBron, Chris Bosh, Dwayne Wade, and the Heat's cast of extras meshes on the court for a while, but 2K Sports has released a screenshot of LeBron from NBA 2K11 with his new team.

With so many roster and offseason decisions still to be made, it's anyone's guess how the Heat will handle in NBA 2K11, but Chris Snyder, director of marketing for 2K Sports, told us that there are any number of ways to control Miami's new three-headed monster to victory. "I think it's really up to the gamer and their approach to the game. A lot of people want to get LeBron the ball and watch him do his thing, but I think other people who want to spread out the ball and play a more balanced offense have the ability to do that now with our game. I mean, you've got three really good options to go to."

Of course, NBA 2K11 features cover athlete Michael Jordan. So, will we see Jordan and his glory days' Bulls go up against this new dream team in Miami? Snyder wasn't saying, but he teased that Jordan was "definitely more than just a cover athlete with this game."

NBA 2K11 hits stores on October 5th. Check our our impressions from E3.
