Beds needs to stick to accessories updates and colorways. Need to get someone else in there for tendency ratings and attributes

I think beds knows what hes doing, its just that for some reason the methods dont seem consistent across all players.

If there is a formula for each rating based on stats, I would think a conversion program could spit out the corresponding numbers for updated ratings. With a games played minimum, this would allow for even the most obscure player to receive recognition.

A quick trip to Basketball-Reference, which doesn't provide the exact zones 2K apparently uses but it's close enough.

Kawhi Leonard
Inside (At Rim): 83-113 (73.5%) - Ast'd 59% (85/84 rating)
Close (3-15 ft): 80-171 (46.7%) - Ast'd 33% (93/94 rating)
Mid (16-23 ft): 38-97 (39.2%) - Ast'd 61% (85/84 rating)
3pt (23+): 69-138 (50.0%) - Ast'd 93% (Leads league) (95/93 rating)

LeBron James
Inside (At Rim): 191-273 (70.0%) - Ast'd 46% (97/96 rating)
Close (3-15 ft): 51-140 (36.4%) - Ast'd 16% (80/79 rating)
Mid (16-23 ft): 32-84 (38.1%) - Ast'd 28% (70/70 rating)
3pt (23+): 37-130 (28.5%)- Ast'd 57% (75/66 rating)

These ratings are not without flaws; however it is crystal clear that Kawhi has been significantly better than LeBron from Close range.

Quote:

Meanwhile, Tim Duncan mid range does down to a 60 when shooting 32.8% from there, while Hassan Whiteside midrange goes UP to 76 while shooting 32.6% WUT. And this is only two examples

Tim Duncan
Inside: 44-61 (72.1%) - Ast'd 80% (94/63 rating)
Close: 63-125 (50.4%) - Ast'd 67% (96/95 rating)
Mid: 11-41 (26.8%) - Ast'd 82% (60/55 rating)

Hassan Whiteside
Inside: 123-156 (78.8%) - Ast'd 67% (96/70 rating)
Close: 51-124 (41.1%) - Ast'd 65% (90/86 rating)
Mid: 4-11 (36.4%) - Ast'd 75% (76/76 rating)

To be fair: the 13-23 feet data that Beds and 2K use to determine Whiteside's Mid-rating is likely "accurate". I personally consider it a giant mistake by 2K Sports and a misconception of what the Mid-range rating should actually represent. It is clear via conventional data (and the eye test) that Whiteside is not a mid-range player, and if 2K's gameplay is evaluating 13 foot paint shots to be the same type of shot as a set/off-dribble 20 footer then they should really re-evaluate their shooting zones.

With that said it is clear that Duncan has shot the ball poorly/infrequently from distance and that is a major reason why he is only averaging 9.2 points per game.

Man, Aaron Gordon must have spent a lot of time at the tanning around Christmas:

The bias is strong with this one. I'll take him myself.

Quote:

Come on 2k Melo should at least be a 89 or 90

Melo
2013: 24.8 PER, 56 TS% on 35.6 USG% (Lead league in USG)
2014: 24.4 PER, 56 TS% on 32.4 USG%
2015: 21.5 PER, 53 TS% on 32.2 USG%
2016: 20.7 PER, 53 TS% on 30.0 USG%

Small Forwards
94 - LeBron James (26.7 PER)
93 - Kevin Durant (28.6 PER)
92 - Kawhi Leonard (27.1 PER)
89 - Paul George (21.3 PER)
87 - Carmelo Anthony (20.7 PER)

The fact that Melo is even that high exemplifies 2K's generosity.

Quote:

and DWill is a 75 he is scoring 15 points a game

Wat

Quote:

one bad game from Prozingis and he a 79 SMH.

Porzingis is shooting 35% over his last 15 games. Hyperbole works both ways.

Quote:

and last Lopez is a 78 he is killing in the paint blocking and scoring

Robin Lopez was straight garbage up until 5 games ago. He has since gone up 2 OVR in conjunction with his elevated play.

Quote:

if Sash has not played how do u go from 68 to 64

.....Kudos on typing the most homerific statement of 2016. If you are defending Sasha Vujacic's play (4.9 PER, 36 TS%, a healthy 315 minutes) you hereby revoke all claim to being a Knicks fan.

Roster updates do update playbooks etc. To my understanding this is something Da Czar works on throughout the year rather than Beds.
