I would have thought that at first as well but ultimately didn't because those Lakers weren't a 10th seed like he mentioned (meaning I took that as a qualifier).

Hope that makes sense (and doesn't make an argument).


EDIT: My bad jk31.

Kobe had roughly 25/5/5 at the end of the 2010-2011 season. I could be wrong, but I think he started with a 97 rating on 2K11 and ended up with a 95 rating (short of 96). 2K12--after his 25/5/5 2011 season--has him at a 94 rating (short of 96).

It's intentionally narrow criteria from someone who doesn't know stats (or ratings).
(25-7-7 is regarded as BETTER than 25-10-4 - yet those players are specifically DQ'd)

Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan both averaged 25/5/5 last year (with a *stacked team!)

Nobody is putting those guys in the same conversation as LeBron (even at 39!), and for very good reason (albeit one that eludes a particular individual)

^ I'm just saying I--me--wouldn't say Kobe because of that included qualifier of the 10th seed. If the man puts that qualifier in, I can't say Kobe. If he doesn't, I can. Nothing more, nothing less.

I'm not here to take the proverbial potshot in saying he doesn't know stats. Just curious though: you responded to my post to say that, but not to my post where I wished you well. Just sayin.

Was there a basketball-related point? Try to stay focused.

I'm focused without needing to try--now during this post and then when I wished you well. I'm glad you laughed out loud to one of my statements because I did so, too, while typing it. See, me being nice again lol.

"Trust me. Anyone with a backbone is not going to take “tone” on a message board personally. I was just laughing and commenting on someone else’s post because my first reaction was “why is this guy being so aggressive with me”. I didn’t take it personal and my feelings were not hurt.

I actually appreciated the information 2kinsider provided after the fact and found it to be quite insightful. Cleared up some of my confusion about how the ratings adjustments are probably decided upon. Whether associated with 2k or not it’s been a long time since I have seen someone apply statistical analysis to rating correlation that effectively in a long time"

I thought that was a good post, and maybe you did as well since you liked it. The post I made that you're asking about was basketball related, but the actual point I was making was in regards to a comment you made about Operation Sports not being a welcoming (and professional) atmosphere but instead "the streets". That gave me a better understanding of you and even though I'm still sorry you feel that way, I'm glad you said it because it explains a lot.

Anyway, I ain't trying to argue with you bud. On with ratings and such. And even though you may not like it, I wish you well a-GAIN.

Your inability to self-reflect on how you're choosing to engage is a bit telling. Please stick to basketball and stop obsessing over me. Thank you.

Wemby is just going to need an entire mo-cap session to get him correctly.

I self reflected in post #17 because I was wrong and posted an edit.
I chose to engage with jk31 earlier about Kobe's rating, sticking to basketball.
I'm not obsessing over you. I just responded to you like I do others.

That's about it. I wished you well for a second time but you call that obsessing over you. No one is obsessing over you. We just livin' bro. I'm not saying you want to keep up the personal stuff ("try to stay focused"; "stop obsessing over you") but if you do, just pm me so it's not here. I'm really not trying to argue with you, and I won't over pm either; just sayin' do it there. If not, it's dropped here knowing that it's all good.
