Honestly, I thought I was fair with my rating..

You weren't.

as usual, there are some of u who are complaining and use ridiculous meaningless excuses to back up your claims..
i agree that the ratings of many many players are off, but to whinge because [example] lebrons perimeter D is b+ or something is silly.

steals probably has a big part in the perimeter D grade, something which lebron is very good at..

i really like the fact that 2k9 has graded categories now which would be based on the accumulation of attributes within that category. who cares is its a half mark or so off your opinion on what he should be graded..

i absolutley cant wait to get into these edits and re do the roster...i cant wait..
every year since 2k, its been a hobby of mine, and i really enjoy the time it takes to do it.
and the great thing is, 2k9 gives us the oppurtunity to share rosters, and the O.S has a great community of educated and passionate nba gamers that will improve these rosters for all of u who dont know or care to do them.
there will be a wealth of solid more accurate rosters to download within days of the games release.
so who cares about if the default ratings are off...
this year, its a non issue for everyone! not just those with transfer kits..

BINGO!!!! This is what many seem not to understand. The ratings are not solely based on prior year performance, but they are heavily based on those statistics. Superstars seem to be the only exception to this rule, whereas track record is also taken into account.
