NBA 2K11 High On Barack Obama, Low On Derrick Rose, Noah

NBA 2K11 Obama.jpg
Barack Obama has been getting low approval ratings lately, but he's a star in the video game world. He's making a virtual appearance in NBA 2K11. After winning the championship, the winning NBA team makes an appearance at the Oval Office, to get a meet and greet with the basketball obsessed president. It's the second video game appearance this year for Obama, who also was in Madden '11 for similar post-championship ceremonial duties.

2KSports' might have given props to the Chicago-native Obama but they didn't do any favors to another Chicagoan -  Derrick Rose.

According to player ratings released by Operation Sports, Derrick Rose got an 85. Not bad for the Bulls' superstar, but take into account that Jazz point guard Deron Williams got a 92 and Joe Johnson of the Hawks got an 88. The highest rankings went to two out of the three Miami Heat stars. LeBron and Wade both racked up a 97 rating. Kobe Bryant also was awarded a 97.

Also getting the shaft from NBA 2K11 was Joakim Noah, who only got a 73 after a break out 2009 season. Bulls forward Carlos Boozer got a 85 rating, Luol Deng managed a 77 and Ronnie Brewer received a 69, dude.
