for Jennings to be rated above a 75 his passing must be like above 90 (he isnt elite yet in that category, i can name 5 point guards that do that better) he doesn't reboung, jumpshot is streaky, strength is low, post game (none), consistency is 55 a best. Ratings build for an all around player. Evant Turner is an ALL AROUND PLAYER. u can see that in college

Ariza is too high
Joe is where he should be, him and Roy are basically the same overall, some feel one better than the other but in reality, they are the same.
Iggy is good
Bargs is good
AK is just right
Dirk, it depends on his attributes.
Noah is overrated in real life and just right in this game.
Those two Nuggets are just right.

I don't even see any argument for Bynum TBH. I think Bogut is arguably the second or third best center in the league behind Dwight Howard and possibly Kaman/Lopez. Bynum is maybe a top 10 center but his inconsistent effort and inability to stay healthy are two HUGE detriments.

The rebounding and blocks are what do it for me.

Is that your opinion?...lol

Because even though the ratings say KD is overall rated a 91. When I play with him. He is a top 5 player in this game.

You do know John Wall actually has a higher vertical leap than them both right?

In reality? According to who? Lol. I do feel that Roy is a better player than Joe Johnson on both ends of the floor.

# 467 InRodWeTrust @ 09/24/10 04:15 PM

People dont realize than the overall ratings are based on the core attributes for that position... Dirk is Low because hes a shooter... 3pt shooting is not a core PF attribute... he doesnt block shots... hes not great on the boards... hes not great in the low post.... hes not incredibly strong.

As long as he plays like he does in real life then it shouldnt matter

Rod,

My brother.

John Wall did not test the best when it comes to vertical leap. He did extremely well. But neither did Josh Smith. I don't think either of them deserves a 98. Well, I do not think Wall does for that matter. The only 99s should be NAthan Robsinson from the Celtics as well as Elliot Williams for the Blazers (48 vertical).

JPosey,

Yes, you are correct. We do argue which player is a more versatile thret. You are very correct. But since NBA 2K9, 2K has given us the luxury of seeing letter grades for a number of core categories. If I am not mistaken, if you press in the Left Thumb Nimble on the controller, if brings up grades and not numbers.

I prefer this system. It tells me what I need to know. You can view the grades to see how versatile a player is. You do not need the assistance of an overall rating to make that conclusion.

As I mentioned to Brother Jeebs in a previous post, when scouting a player, you discuss each group of skills he has or doesn't have. You do not give that player an overall grade/scout.

I feel it should be the same way here. Here is an example of Football Manager which is one of the leading simulation sports titles out there. Notice how there is not an overall rating but from viewing the chart, you can clearly see what he does well and poorly.

Technical
Mental
Physical

^^Speaking the truth^^

# 473 unbeleavable2 @ 09/24/10 05:10 PM

I know as a rookie he didnt make much noise last season because we lost all the time. But jrue holiday a 70? really? after all the games i watched last season he was the best player on the court. he outplayed iggy in just about every single game. im not saying he should be an 85 with ig but a 75 wouldnt be wrong. but a 70 is.

Melo was number 9 on that list. I think Durant was a number 3. And Dirk was a number 4.

# 476 DakkoN @ 09/24/10 05:39 PM

This thread is like 27 pages of people going in circles

Person A: "mann my boi d rose rated 2 low.. why he lower den d howard???"
Person B names 5+ players who's ratings are too low..
Person C: "Guys.. Center's have different core ratings than Point Guards.. why does everyone keep comparing different positions??"
Then Person D comes in and assumes the role of Person A.

I'd like to see someone take count of how many times that has happened in this thread.. It's just going in circles over and over..

# 477 Jukeman @ 09/24/10 05:44 PM

All the players are too high (except guys below 60)

Man i'm tellin you it just ain't right playa. Ma boi Bob McAdoo rated lower den Carmelo Anthony. Sumtin aint right at 2K, McAdoo at least a 95. dey crazi man! Go Braves!

In all seriousness though, this thread is just the devil in disguise. We're getting nowhere and going in circles like you said. Only a handful of people understand overall ratings aren't the whole picture.

If their player isn't in the upper echelon of talent, something's wrong. Even though that player will probably still play like they do IRL, they don't care about individual ratings, they want that big number to be in the high 80's to 90's.

The overall rating has driven people insane, a mass majority don't understand how ratings work, and it's because of that overall number. It's ridiculous.

# 479 Sublime12089 @ 09/24/10 06:09 PM

I wish Dwight Howard at 88 was a bit higher.... esp when Bosh is an 87, not that Bosh isnt good, but Howard is significantly better imo

# 480 elgato7664 @ 09/24/10 06:38 PM

98% of these ratings are identical as their June 2k10 update (+/- 1)... happy to see them spend some money and time developing and improving their ratings.
