mmm. Because both are better?

Ginobili is a better defender, a better shooter, a better rebounder, etc. The only things Parker has over Manu are durability and speed
Duncan is one of the best defensive rebounders in the league, a threat in the post and still all-defense material.

By 2k standards, both are better overall players (and they are)

ROFL at all the people mad that lebron is not 96+. He can't shoot the ball. His fg% is high because all he does is drive if they pay attention to basketball they would know he doesn't even like to shoot mid range jumpers cause he knows its not his strength but 2k keeps over-rating his shooting. If 2k gives lebron a better mid-range jumper than kobe bryant then 2k really needs new stat guy's.

Derrick Rose 3-9 | 10-15 | 20-23
47.0 | 38.0 | 43.0
57.5 | 50.0 | 44.0
39.7 | 42.0 | 38.0
43.7 | 36.9 | 37.0

Rusell Westbrook 3-9 | 10-15 | 20-23
36.0 | 32.0 | 38.0
38.8 | 33.9 | 37.0
26.6 | 35.8 | 36.0
37.6 | 37.7 | 43.0

And once again, the only year in which Russell does better than Rose is the one in which Rose is injured. Westbrook is a better finisher at the rim though.

Let's also pretend that defenses don't solely focus on Rose when he does play because he has Kevin Durant and James Harden on offense as well.

But please, continue...

Take into account shot selection. Westbrook takes so many dumb shots that his % goes down. If open I'd rather have westbrook shooting than Rose. I wish there were stats like that available

Where did you come up with any of this BS? No one knows his rating yet. Considering how high some of these guys are LeBron is going to at least be a 98 overall.

At least LeBron's efficient unlike Kobe "Chucker" Bryant. Look at last year's PPG leaders and then look at FG%. Kobe needs like 5 more shots per game to score about the same amount of points as LeBron. I'll take 53% anyday over Kobe's weak 43%.

Alright

Russell westbrook shoots the elbow jumper better than rose, and thats typically the only midrange shot he takes.

For all of those one are talking about Lebron's rating of 94+ is because that was the next highest rated player that was confirmed (Durant & Paul). I'm sure he will be around a 96-99.

All of the other ratings were based on what order they were on the list in the video.

No one is going to agree with everyone thats why 2k lets u edit your own ratings.

Too me the list is pretty good and I cant wait for 2k to release more info!

And? You can't just take away stupid shots, Rose takes stupid shots as well, hell half of their flair is built off of miraculously hitting those stupid shots every now and then. And you can't really have a stat like that, because then what is a stupid shot? And these are both elite level NBA caliber players, "if they're open" they should both hit the shot no matter what. I really despise conjecture stats, that's why I only made a passing mention of Russ's teammates, whom as a whole are much, much better than Rose's, and Russ isn't required to carry the offensive load that Rose is.

If he shoots it better, and shoots it more, why don't his %'s reflect that against Rose? Can't really base this off of one game, or just one year when we have four years of data available for each player.
