【2K10】德里克罗斯专访。【里面有解锁人物Kanye和The Game】
We have to admit, we’re slightly jealous of you. NBA 2K10 dropped yesterday (as did NBA Live 10)andwhile most of you broke night playing it, we’re at work. But nowit’syour turn to be jealous because while you sat at home enjoyingyourbrand new 2K10 game (and your now weed plate 2K9 case), we were kicking it with 2K rep Derrick Roseofthe Chicago Bulls. Rose is not a man of many words, but who needswordswhen you’re Rookie of the Year? His stats do all the talking.
Since we obviously couldn’t challenge his real-life game, we had to check his gamer credibility. We chatted Derrick up about NBA 2K10, his thoughts on the unlockable player Kanye West, and his team’s plans for next season. If you haven’t already purchased NBA 2K10, peep Derrick’s trailer after the jump. Oh and make sure you’ve got 60 bucks in your wallet, because yeah, it’s that good…
Interview by Andrew Rivera
Complex: Are you a big fan of the NBA 2K series?
DerrickRose: Yeah, I’ve always been a fan, I’ve been playing it fora longtime. That’s probably the only game I really play right now.
Complex: Did you have any particular favorite growing up?
DerrickRose: No I didn’t really have any growing up. I had a lot ofadventuregames growing up, but I caught myself up on 2K games.
Complex: Since you’re on the Bulls, we’d guess you probably use them more now, but did you ever have a preferred team?
Derrick Rose: I actually don’t play with the Bulls, I play with the Lakers and I guess my fans play with the Bulls.
Complex:The draft feature is a big deal. Everyone isbuzzing about making theirown character and in a way raise it throughthe summer camps andD-Leagues. How close is the game to the real-lifeexperience?

Derrick:Oh it’s real close. Its kind of like personal on the game. You actuallydo stuff that you really do in the combine.Really I didn’t have to dothat much because I think that the top fiveor six players don’t reallyhave to do that much but on the game youplay against each other inscrimmage, work on your skills, andhopefully you’ll get drafted. On thegame, if your player’s that goodyou can transfer him over to the 2K10 game.
Complex: Other than the draft, what would you say is your favorite aspect about 2K10?
Derrick Rose: I played it a little bit and I like my jump shot on there now.
Complex: Was there a problem with it? Did they not make it up to your standards?
Derrick Rose: Nah, it wasn’t great at all last year. [Laughs.] This year it’s following my style a little more so I’m happy about it.

Complex: Does it look better or does it play better?
DerrickRose: Everything is better. Looks better, the play style isbetter, andthe visual on there you can tell they really put some workon there.Like they made my jumper better but they changed my crossovera littlebit more. They put some crossovers there that I did in thegame and Ilike it. I go up in the hole, you can change your lay-ups alittle bitmore in the game. Pull up below the shoulders, you can doall that stuffin the game.
Complex: That’s cool. You had mentionedbefore that youdon’t play with the Bulls, so what’s it like when youhave to playagainst yourself in the game? Is that a conflict for you?
Derrick:Yeah, it is kind of hard. You want to see yourself be goodbut I stillwant to win the game. So if like somebody dunks on with mewith myselfI’m kind of mad about it, I’ll probably have to stop for alittle bit. [Laughs.]
Complex: You use the Lakers, so how about when it’s you playing as Kobe and you have to dunk on yourself?
Derrick Rose: Its funny only because when I’m playing the game it’s amusing. [Laughs.] But you gotta know it’s just a video game. In real life I won’t ever jump early for the block.
Complex:There are some unlockable players in the game,including The Game, Wale,and Kanye West—rappers who all claim theyplay a fair amount of ball.How do you think a one-on-one game with youand Kanye West would go? Inreal life, would you just destroy him?
Derrick Rose: Yes!  [Laughs.]
Complex: But he’s Kanye. His hometown is Chicago, the same town you play for. Can’t you take it easy on him?
Derrick: [Laughs]Nah, it doesn’t matter, it’s over. That’snot his field. That’s like mygoing into the booth and trying to write16 bars to go against his.
Complex: So basically it’s a stay-in-your-lane thing?
Derrick Rose: Yes. Absolutely.
Complex: You were on the cover of Kicks magazine. Do you have any favorite kicks of all time?
DerrickRose: Of all time? Nah, I don’t have any of all time. Adidasare puttingsome out right now that I like. I like all shell-toes andthey reallyhave some hot ones coming out that everyone is going toreally enjoy Ithink. But other then that I don’t really mess withsneakers.
Complex: Who is the most famous celebrity that you’ve played NBA 2K10 or the previous 2K games against?
Derrick Rose: I’m about to play Kobe later on today actually.
Complex: What are your predictions?
Derrick Rose: I think I’m going to win. You know he has too much stuff going on right now.  [Laughs.]Shit,he’s gotta worry about being the best in the NBA and all thisotherstuff. Me, I’ve only got to worry about the games. I’m only 20—Idon’tgot no chicks, he’s got a wife and all that stuff. So there’s waymorestuff to worry about.
Complex: So isn’t it going to be awkward when you try and play him with the Lakers?
DerrickRose: No, I’m going to go with the Bulls on this one but ifI wasn’t, itwould be the Lakers of course. I will dunk on him though,as me in thegame.
Complex:  [Laughs.] Good to know. So what else have you been doing before the NBA season starts?
DerrickRose: Right now my biggest thing is to improve my all-aroundgame. Gottaget back as quickly as possible to my team so we can getcan startthings early so we can try to jell quick. Our biggest thingas anorganization right now is winning. If you don’t win, something’swrong.Winning takes care of everything, so our biggest thing iswinning.
