I agree with many, that you can't complain about overall ratings. You can only complain about significant ratings. Gasol will be a 89 over Howard, who's a 88 because post offense rating is more significant to the overall rating that athleticism is. Anyone could tell you, Howard played like Howard, and Gasol played like Gasol.

How is Dirk that low? A little low IMO. 86-92 would be perfect IMO.

Exactly....lol

I would love for it to be without overall. Franchise Mode would be handled totally different in regards to going after players that fit your gameplay or team system.

That aint what i heard, so...ok

Quite the suckfest. But, if this is the biggest thing I complain about with this game, I'll take it.

Lol @ Deron Williams being too high. You serious?

That's the way to look at it lol

Every one's never going to be on the same page on these things y'all. That's part of the fun ...
It's all subjective. Fact: There is no group in the world that could put a rating system together on which we'd all agree.

I really wish we could see a breakdown of the individual ratings. Seeing overalls just doesn't give enough information. Certain players in the league are really good at some things and really bad at others which can make the overalls off.

I was looking at the overalls for Salmons and Jennings, being from Milwaukee, and I thought to myself why are they so bad. But then I thought, well physically Jennings isn't much of a presence. I mean he's fast, but he's not a super athlete like Rose, Wall, or Westbrook. Also, his shooting percentage wasn't amazing last year either (37% from the field, OUCH), so that's probably pulling him down because shooting ratings are probably very important to overalls for PG (can someone confirm this?). Salmons, isn't the most athletic either which probably hurts his rating, but I can't think of a huge deficiency in his game, ball-handling maybe? He's not a good rebounder for a SG, but not terrible. I guess it's more that he's not really great at anything.

But when it comes down to it, if I can hit that ugly mid-range jumper with Salmons and be lightning quick with Jennings, that's all that really matters. I think overall ratings are a bit overrated. Is there an overall rating calculator somewhere that explains how these numbers are weighted by the different attribute categories?

Who cares about these ratings honestly? Most people are going to adjust the ratings themselves when they get the game or download 2kShare rosters with more realistic ratings

# 153 BigDaneAyMane @ 09/23/10 03:45 PM

Boooo! Javale McGee should at least get a 66 and Blatche should be a 75. Wall, Gil and Howard I guessed spot on though.

Durant should be a 93-94 based off of Kobe, Bron, Wade, Melo and Tim Duncan's rating.

Dirk an 83? Ouch.

that is another animal lol......To me there is a lot more i want to know about the Online play than the ratings....got to be able to play the game first than worry about ratings but for the most part you're right

Only things that stand out to me:

1. Dwyane Wade running the point? I don't think the Heat will do that. I think Chambers will run the 1 and Wade will be at the 2. Miller will be their offensive punch off the bench.

2. Gilbert Arenas and John Wall rated higher than Stephen Curry? I know Curry didn't really get going until the last part of last season, but when he did he made a serious push for ROY. I was not a Curry believer when he first came into the league but he really impressed me. Wall could be great. Key is COULD. And Arenas? C'mon. He's not getting any younger. And neither Arenas nor Wall should be anywhere close to Derrick Rose.

3. And for those wondering why Durant is underrated at a 91, it's because he led the league in scoring, is more or less the same kind of player as Melo except does what Melo does at a higher level. Shooting from the perimeter, taking his man off the dribble. The only thing I see Melo doing better on the offensive end is Melo's post-up game, which is impressive. Durant is a better rebounder, three-point shooter, free-throw shooter, better from the field and is younger. Durant should be closer to a 94.

Dirk is a really poor defensive player that's why he is rated 83. But as a lot of people said , overall ratings mean NOTHING.

Dirk rating is 83 points of offensive attributes, which will make him a beast in the game

You guys do understand that all the ratings are from 2k insiders last update from 2k10. The only reason a players rating would change a little is because 2k adds new ratings each year. So a player might get a point or two higher on his overall. So guys relax...Lets wait for the game.

yea i'm ridin wit jeebs on this. the only gripe i have is kleiza bein a 55??? he's got game, i understand he's been out the league but damn 55 lol? i think a 65 would be reasonable. and i like how KD is FINALLY a 90+, guess they had to after this summer and him winning the scoring title. good job overall IMO
