NBA 2K12 Player Ratings Revealed, Including All Free Agents

[pepp32]

You tell me another player that averaged 25.0 ppg 7.7 ast. and something like 4.1 rpg during the season and 27 ppg in the playoffs.
Rose was rediculous bro...he clearly should be higher than Melo!

Come on, how is Barbosa rated higher than DeMar DeRozan and Bargnani? Is this a joke? DeRozan avged 19 ppg post allstar break and he's coming into his 3rd year.. Bargs avged 21.. there is no way these guys should be rated so low (even lower than Turkoglu for example).. they are both mid 70's players with DeRozan in the high 70's.. that's ridiculous

Most of the American fanbase/media has NO idea about the Raptors.. it's so discouraging.. and it's just reflected in this type of thing.. if you guys saw your sixth man/bench player rated higher than your two best players wouldn't that be a little odd? (Not like we're talking about Manu or Jason Terry here, it's Barbosa afteralll).

Can 2K stop overrating Kobe? His defense is terrible and he has no athleticism anymore. On what planet is he better than Dwight Howard.

Russel Westbrook doesn't deserve to be in the same breath as Deron Williams and at best is as good as Steph Curry (Curry is arguably the better the of the two). Steph Curry is better point guard than John Wall and Russel Westbrook. Arguably a top 5 point guard at this point. Al Jefferson is better than Kevin Garnett at this point in their careers. Probably reflects Garnett being too high instead of Jefferson being too low. Monta Ellis should be a lot closer to Kobe and Wade. My only explanation is that the ratings system holds almost no weight on the shooting abilities (Allen and Pierce's ratings reflect that) but even that does not justify this

You sir is a complete idiot seriously.

Ratings threads are always funny. I'm surprised mods still allow these.

Yall know companies only use overall ratings for 3 things, right?

1. To give the casual gamer a way to compare players.
2. To give communities like this something to argue about.
3. To have numbers for some formula we know nothing about, to rank teams.

Regarding 1, most of OS should be above this.
2, we fall for it every time.
3, untill they come up with a better way...

C'mon folks! We know most players are not comparable. About the only time this makes sense is when 2 players have similar skill sets. Kobe vs LeBron maybe, because they are both great, all around players. But Dirk vs LeBron, Noah vs Pierce? At this point, we're getting into personal preference and team needs/chemstry.

I could understand debating individual ratings... why is such & such rated a better rebounder than whatshisface? But this should be the last year for overall rating debate post. And we should scold new comers that don't know any better.

Kobe is a better center than Dwight for sure.

Lawl, Kobe is a taller Hedo Turkoglu at this point of his career.
