My only problem is why do players that get traded get dropped. Let's give them a chance to **** up .

Thank for Instance, Paul George.... This guy looks flat out terrible. I have nothing to defend him. He's bad.

Cade Cunningham.... So proud of this dude. I'm going to check what they boosted

His teammate Asuar Thompson is another worldly talent. Like his brother he's been causing problems. Even thought shooting a limitation. Both brothers are really good at cutting. I love watching them play.

Stephen Castle every game this month he's locking himself into ROTY award.

I wasn't able to identify who this was referring to (my guess is Schroder, because Pistons), but as with every update it's 99% about their production. Max Christie is a +2.

Schroder played like dog**** with Golden State and got demoted from the starting lineup.
He is not starting w/ DET, and hasn't turned it around either (26 FG% in 3 games w/ DET).

Most traded players didn't get updates - many of them missed games due to the travel / getting acclimated, and thus didn't register a meaningful enough sample.

Quote:

Thank for Instance, Paul George.... This guy looks flat out terrible. I have nothing to defend him. He's bad.

This week has been brutal and I'm sure last night's 2-point explosion wasn't even a factor in this update.

George is a tough one because he's a two-way player and still maintains some star player tendencies. His shot creation and playmaking are strong, he still takes a ton of contested mid-range. His finishing ability has completely fallen by the wayside, he can't get to the rim anymore on-ball, which is why he's taking all these tough twos. There are a lot of similarities to DeMar DeRozan (George is still way better defensively), but the expectations / contracts aren't.

He needs to change up his offensive role to be more of a complimentary guy. Of course that's easier said than done when Embiid is in and out of the lineup. Certainly not what fans want to hear when he's making 50M+. I'll probably do a full dive on him, have previously touched on it in a video.

The impact of James Harden probably shouldn't be understated. George had resurgent efficiency last season, going from 37 3PT% to 41% (and is back down to 36% this year). Note that Norm Powell is having a big year out of nowhere.

He does have a badge update (-2).

Quote:

Cade Cunningham.... So proud of this dude. I'm going to check what they boosted

He does have a badge update (+1, probably other changes)

Quote:

His teammate Asuar Thompson is another worldly talent. Like his brother he's been causing problems. Even thought shooting a limitation. Both brothers are really good at cutting. I love watching them play.

Ausar likewise has a badge update (+2).

Quote:

Stephen Castle every game this month he's locking himself into ROTY award.

Ditto for Castle (+2). You're 4 for 4. Either there was a massive badge update or you can pick em.

touched up the list as of course I missed a few players on first pass through.

Daniel Gafford went (-1) to 83 Ovr

Odd but both Rockets players - Jalen Green (-1) 85 Ovr + Fred VanVleet (-2) 81 OVR were dropped according to the official ratings released on the 2K website but were not applied in the acutual roster. I'm sure they will get rectified later but just making note of it.

Quite a few players changed positions, I don't know if any ratings other than intangibles were changed in order to correctly rate them if their Ovr changed up or down because of the positon update.

This is actually weird. Jalen Green was hot a or so ago. He only went up a point or 2. Then drop him. Van Fleet I kind of get. But he's been hurt for a while now.

EDIT: The VanVleet/Green ratings are now live.

While VanVleet only played two games in this cycle, his last 4 games overall were pretty brutal: 7 PPG in 31 MPG, along with 23 3PT%

Green's last 7 games: 41.3 FG%, 29.7 3PT%, 69.2 FT%
Update cycle prior (10 games): 46.2 FG%, 43.8 3PT%, 89.8 FT%

If Green showed any consistency THAT would be the surprise.

Badge post updated.

That accounts for 53 players with Badge updates, which is a new record for 2K.
That's about 10% of the league.

There's quite a few I disagree with (naturally), but for the most part it's a positive update. This is the type of effort we have been asking for.
