You can guard him but the refs don't call offensive fouls on him, so there you go.

Wade still puts up pretty good numbers but when you see NBA 2K14-Wade play he will be putting up 27-35 ppg which is unrealistic. He'll do things he isn't doing IRL anymore.


So there you go, overall ratings are just flawed.

How does Marc Gasol, one of the best centers in the league last year, if not the best, get an 83 and Howard gets a 90 smh.

Hibbert anchored the BEST defense in the NBA last year, he deserves higher than an 81...

I know overalls shouldn't matter but a below average player like Iman Shumpert should be no where near 82. Like I said the new rating system is based on stats therefor he will be exposed for the scrub that he is sorry it's just the truth.

Players with good relationships with Ronnie2K seem to get the benefit of the doubt. See Paul George and Iman. Both overrated by 2k.

I haven't been paying attention to the ratings with GTA coming out, but holy **** I can't believe Siva is a 67. Guy is barely an NBA-caliber player, and he's 1 point lower than the 4th overall pick lol. Obviously different positions and it's just their overall ratings, but if that isn't overrated, I don't know what is.

I would take them with a grain of salt. I think he is getting dinged for not being a great defender in the post and strength. IMO Zeller is not a NBA center at least full time. I bet they have him at center where he really will be a stretch 4 with the Bobcats. He is not going to block a lot shots and is not a good finisher with contact. He doesn't play like a 7 fter in the paint at times. When I watch him he reminds me of a SF trapped in a 7 foot body. He didn't shoot plenty of mid range jumpers in college but that is supposed to be one of his best skills. I think he will get upgraded once he proves he can make jump shots. He did look good in the summer league though and I actually think he will turn out good at the 4.

Post defense Low
Strength Low
Blocking Low to average
Post offense average he does have a good spin move
Rebounding Low to average
Speed high
dribbling above average
agility high
hustle high

Monta Ellis should be 84.
