Dwight, with his "limited" skills, has done it twice. Gasol is only better at passing and shooting FT's, but Dwight is a better scorer, rebounder and he is the best defender in the NBA. The L.A. hype is in full effect I see. They are the two best players on the best team in the NBA, not the best swingman/overall player and bigman in the entire league. People seem to not be able to distinguish between those two points.

Obviously you didn't see what Gasol has done to everyone he's faced, especially Duncan, Howard, Boozer...the list goes on, Gasol is very consistent at every facet of the game which is why his team wins games, even when Kobe is out.

Dwight Howard can't guard Gasol

Can duncan do that?

As a Sixers fan, Iggy at 84 is vastly overrated and Thad Young should be in the starting 5, whether for Brand or Hawes, not sure

What does this have to do with an overall rating?

Derek FIsher 69? underrated much, don't know wat u guys think but, he should be 78 or something probably 80

# 326 Segunda @ 09/23/10 10:24 PM

Woooo buddy bargnani too high? I believe he's too low. Only a 74. I swear that he had the same player rating last year. And i know bargnani improved last year. Should be like a 78 and also dont know how he's not the best player on raptors with barbosa beating him.

D-Fisher, i respect the guy as a player, he is tough as tough gets, but an overall rating of 80, for a guy who is winding down his career, his overall shouldn't be going up, with guys like kobe, pau, lamar, he just runs the offense, sure he has some heroic plays on his resume, clutch in his own right, but not every night, getting a overall of 79-80 you need to be producing bigger numbers every night.

His rating is fine as long as his 3-point rating is about an 80 and his clutch rating are high then he is spot on. That is about the only thing he does now. Strength should be higher then average as well.

who said anything about ratings?

I told the guy who stated that Gasol was better than Howard he'd be hard pressed to find 10 GM's IRL take Gasol over Howard

We weren't debating a video game we were debating real basketball

Yeah for a guy who's played 10+ years and very rarely miss a game that sure does mean he's soft.

That soft label is so freaking OVERATED and childish....makes you wonder why teams throw the kitchen sink at Soft player night in and night out and still get abused trying to defend him

But then again he ain't Kenyon Martin so he must be soft........

Kobe shot 41% - are you telling me Rose's midrange jumpshot is better than Kobe's? I sure hope not. To say Rose is one of the best jump shooters from 16-23 feet because of the percentage is pretty laughable. With that said, I still think he's one of the best PG's in the NBA. Here are some of the players who had lower shooting % from 16-23 feet than Rose.. Deron Williams Richard Hamilton Mike Bibby Kobe Bryant Ben Gordon Peja Stojakovic So yeah. Numbers don't always tell the whole story.

You must not watch the Bulls much. Rose is money from 16-23, more often than not. It doesn't matter if they give him space, he hits the shots.

# 333 Dr.Evil @ 09/23/10 10:46 PM

durant should be higher than 91

Oh my bad. I thought this thread was regarding player ratings because of the fact that the thread says ratings...
And the only reason someone would take Howard over Gasol is because he's young. Gasol is a better player.

# 335 detriotpistonfan @ 09/23/10 10:52 PM

do ya'll realize that they've given wall a higher vertical rating than lebron and josh smith ? his vert rating is 98.

really eager to see that roster update once the game comes out cause that is ridiculous

Kenyon Martin is a punk. And not missing any games only further proves how soft he is in my eyes. Dude shies away from contract like he's made of plasticine. Dude fades away on every shot no matter who is on him. Whatever, goes in, can't stop it, sure, whatever. It's also weak nonetheless.

Let the record show that I do not like 7 footers that play like they're 6'6". HOFer sure. He put up excellent numbers.

# 337 seattlescott0 @ 09/23/10 11:13 PM

Ya those ratings for the Milwaukee Bucks are SO PATHETIC. So bad I might not even buy the game. I am not sure now even....
Look at those ratings for the centers? Are you KIDDING ME? Bogut 82 and Brook Lopez 81? These are high energy defense nearly 20-10 guys when healthy and they are only in the low 80's? How do you rate these guys? Based on wether or not they can run a fast break? UGH.

# 338 airjoca @ 09/23/10 11:13 PM

If Kobe, Wade and LeBron are a 97... does that mean that MJ will be a 125?

If I'm gonna go by percentage? I'm going by percentage and volume. He makes and takes more mid range shots than Kobe, and on top of that shoots them better. Is he not supposed to take the jumper if that's what the defense gives him? If the numbers don't tell the whole story please tell me the rest.
And not only did none of these players not shoot the ball better from 16-23ft out, they didn't even come close to attempting as many. You have no argument. The numbers don't lie in this instance.

I'm a Bucks fan. Bogut's ok at 82. He's about where he should be compared to the other C's in the league. I have a problem with someone like Maggette being higher than Salmons though.
