2K Sports has sent word that the demo for NBA 2K8 is now available on Xbox Live Marketplace. If I hadn't seen NBA Live 08 at E3, I'd say this one would be the one to get but we'll see once the two games are released to really get a gauge at which is the better basketball game. For now, you can try out the 2K Sports version.
