He also is a guy that just had an epic playoff run when inserted into a high minute situation. Not to mention single-handedly won a game, in the clutch, against the Nets. IJS.

Melo is playing within the team concept. JR, however, is not. Dude goes iso nearly every time he touches the ball. His possessions always end up as a contested jumpshot, contested step back jumpshot, turnover, or a forced drive with a wild shot at the rim. You obviously want the guy to get going but you can't have him playing like a headless chicken out there. His stock has really fallen because of the playoffs (not the first time he sucked in the playoffs though) so he can kiss that overpaid contract he was going to get this summer good bye.

epic playoff run? JR Smith is a career 39% (31% from deep) shooter in the playoffs. He's shooting a terrible 33% this year in the playoffs. He has always choked in the playoffs, so it's nothing new. The only time he was good in the playoffs was in 2008 when they went up against the Lakers. They still got swept in the first round though.

I just took a look at Nate Robinson's individual attributes and I must say...2K did A LOT of reaching to get him to what he is at.

They really jumped the gun on Eric Bledsoe too, though they actually need to increase his 3 point shot (72 rating, shot 39.7% on the season). I mean, is Bledsoe really a better player than Jeff Teague? Or how about George Hill?

My point is...when they update the ratings isn't it a representation of how that particular player is performing CURRENTLY? So if a player is hot IRL...he should be hot in the game. Do you agree? That way if the player comes back down to Earth you decrease him in the next update. I'm no ratings guru or anything but I know Nate has been good enough to be nationally recognized. He got some attention.
