NBA 2K14 Player Ratings Released So Far

[Ramboooo]

I actually thought he'd be higher 'cause of his breakout year. 88's a good rating tho imo. Most are already aware of this, but keep in mind that 2-way players will always have higher ratings in Nba 2k, as they should ('cause basketball is a 2-way sport). A lot of NBA fans tend to think that the best scorers are the best players. Nope, not always. Complete, do it all, 2-way, ideal for their position guys like Lebron and Paul George always gonna get the ratings boost.

Steve Nash 80 -_-

How much you wanna bet he will still have better defensive ratings than Hayward.

He was playing with a bad wrist for most of the season and forced to use his left hand a lot. Check his post allstar and playoffs numbers.

Anyways since it seems like you like to calculate the overall based on fg %, what would be Kevin love's rating? Since he averaged 35% fg and 21% in 3pt and is a horrible defender he should be like what, 70 overall on your books?

I hope at least Cody is an athletic freak in the game, 68 seems too low for him. I guess he is another victim of the typical 2k's treatment to white young players ( valanciunas, Leonard, Hayward...) Well at least his overall isn't an insulting 59 like val and Meyers were

Kevin Love broke his hand twice. He played 18 games. You should look at 2011-12 when judging his ratings. Horrible defender? He had a DWS of 2.3 in 11-12. He is at worst an average defender. He had a TS% of 56.8 in 11-12. Which is above average. You say Hibbert's stats were skewed because of his injury (even though he played 79 matches). Well that doesn't mean you can give higher than an 80 until he proves it in the regular season. And he hasn't done that yet. If he builds on his postseason and has a great season, i'm sure he will justify upwards of an 85 rating. But he hasn't proved it yet. You can only go on what he has done so far, which is fairly an 80 at best.

I think 88 is fair for PG. He can do it all on offense, guard 3-4 positions on defense. His turnovers are my biggest gripe, but i think that came with him have the ball in his hands alot more because of Danny being out. People really sleep on him offensively because Indiana play a team style of ball, rather than relying on one player to carry them every night.

Indiana was dead last in offensive efficiency last season, and George wasn't particularly efficient himself, plus Hibbert is one of the least efficient bigs in the whole league. Their offensive ratings need to be very low but they should be monsters on defense.

True, Indiana's a terrible offensive team. Hibbert's inside shot should probably be a 75 tops.
