The Kings starting lineup will be

Reke
Beno
Greene
Landry
Dalembert

I can't be too mad with Reke's rating, pretty fair IMO. I'm looking forward to see what DMC got.

The numbers to look at though is MPG. Gasol plays 6 more minutes per game than Duncan. I'm sure the stamina rating reflects that.

This. Duncan had pretty much the same stats as the last few seasons except his efficiency went UP. I have no problem with him being a 90. I'd still rather have him on my team for one year than Dwight Howard. Obviously I'd pick Dwight moving forward, but for one year, Duncan's the man.

i like the way the ratings are done in FootballManager (most realistic soccer manager).

u have physical (8 attributes), mental (14 attr.) and technical (14 attr.) categories each on a scale from 1-20 and no overall rating which is very dodgy anyways in sportsgames.

the physical and mental attributes can even completely apply to bball as you might see here http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__sOLC-jIKT...+performer.jpg

Any legend ratings? I always had a problem with how they were rated in the past. If LBJ/KB/DW are 97, are we to assume MJ will be a 99? I would also assume Hakeem Olajuwon would have to be a 99(wasn't he in 2k10?). Mailman a 97? Does anyone remember Magic and Bird's ratings in 2k10? They weren't 99 right(probably b/c athleticism)? I remember Ewing being a 95 and thinking that was too high. I remember Drexler and Shaq(Is anyone else hoping they brought back his dunk package with the hanging on the rim dunk?!) were too low as well.


Anyway.....
I like the ratings this year. I do think Rose should be an 87. Scola an 80. Dirk and Yao i would say high 80's but i realize that their offense is elite, but with weak defense(Yao's defense can't be put into a stat, his size alone alters so many shots in real life). Joe Johnson an 86. Kleiza high 60's. If Wall is gonna be an 81 already, Blake Griffen should too. Ariza is too high, 75. I don't understand how Amare is 86 and Dirk and Yao are 83. But, i guess his athleticism boosts his overall?

Good lookin all around, but as always, i'll edit to my own liking.

When he stands next to LeBron. He is only slight (inch maybe) taller than him. Google some pics of Durant next to LeBron

I hear you guys...I'm talking about right now right now. I saw him recently...but anyways, he definitely must of had a growth spurt over the summer. He's 6'11 now. Either that or he wears heels...

I agree this will be the starting line up. Evans will make the move to SG just as Wade made the move from his rookie year.

I mean the guy is 1st team all defense in the NBA last year and he was on the second team the year before last. He led the league in steals, 4th in assists as well so I say his passing ratings should be better than Rose. So his awareness is probably better Rebounding Rondo is a better rebounder not just defense but offense. Neither are great perimeter shooters Rose is slightly better than Rondo but he isn't great from the perimeter. Rose is slightly better than Rondo from the freethrow line but he isn't great. Rose advantage to me is his athleticism so his dunk rating would be higher. So I see why Rondo get the edge.

I do unstand that arguement,......BUT....Rose outside game is light years ahead of Rondo. Not to mention that Rose carried the Bulls last season. Their was a span of about 6 or 7 games last year where he was flat out dominant against Western Conference teams. I 've never seen Rondo not once carry the Celtics When the rest of the team was flat. We have even mentioned that Rondo is playing with 3 Hall of Famers.
