Here is a video of Gilbert Arenas, the newly announced cover athlete for EA Sports NBA Live 08, as he talks about what it means to have received the honor.

You gotta love his enthusiasm. It’s clear that it isn’t just about the money (cough…Tomlinson…cough) but he is really excited about the opportunity to be on the cover of the game. He’s not just going through the motions of standard PR, but he is loving every second of this. Only “Agent Zero” would call his own press conference to reveal he got the cover!
Also of note is the plug of nbalive.com at the end of the video, which was officially posted to YouTube by EA. Currently that address re-directs to easports.com/nbalive08 however the website has yet to go live. It will likely go up any day now.
