LeBron shot better overall than Ray Allen. Is Allen a better shooter from a career yes. But Allen struggled in deep two's for two years in a row. Also Ray Allen shoots almost all of his shots are assisted. He is a great shooter. I bet he has a few cold zones in the deep two range that are messing up his ratings.

10-15 ft 16-23ft 3pt jumpers
LeBron 41% 46% 41% 43%
Allen 46% 33% 42% 42%

Parker is no worse or better defensively in comparison to any of the point guards slotted ahead of him, except a healthy D-Rose and Rondo, and the fact that you are using that as a knock is reaching. Irving and Curry are considered worse as one-on-one defenders, yet neither is below Parker in overall. Parker is more efficient, less turnover prone, more "clutch" and far more experienced than almost everyone above him yet his intangible ratings are likely worse. He isn't being given the credit he's earned and is underrated. He should be in the elite company PGs with Rondo (healthy), Westbrook, Rose (healthy) and Paul. They all get their appropriate placing for the most part, while Parker is docked an arbitrary amount for weaknesses he no longer possesses. Bull****!!!!

And obviously, I'm not saying he's without weaknesses because all players have them. He's just learned to minimize them with hard work and gearing his game towards his strengths. All this without being the lighting fast player he once was. He's lost a half a step or so, yet makes up for it with savvy, tremendous footwork and an under appreciated off-ball game.

Yeah, they totally ****ted on our bench with the exception of - apparently still in his prime - Ginobili. LOL

Ginobili had the worst statistical season since his rookie year, yet still is measured out as an all-star caliber player by 2K. Parker had his second best statistical season and unarguably his best overall as a pro, yet still is below Manu, Timmy and far too many inferior PGs. LOL

Diaw was ****ted on the worst, IMO, but they have him (and Bonner) at the wrong position so that doesn't help his (their) overall. They also possess unconventional games for NBA bigmen.

Are you implying that Gary Neal should only be a spot-up shooter? He's not elite by any measure, but he has a solid if not very good off-the-dribble game. The problem is he's a black hole/ball hog and doesn't have a true position. He's also absolutely horrible on defense on-ball or otherwise.

Yeah, the free-agent ratings are annually atrocious in comparison to players on teams. Stephen Jackson is likely done as an NBA player - his play last year was abominable and he's slow as molasses - but he's rated as the best free-agent in the game. Huh?

Can someone post a sorted list?

[alabamarob]

Does anyone have the numbered and not grade ratings?

[thechamp923]

Durant should have gotten a 96 and Paul a 94. Ginobili got too high and Duncan and Parker got too low.

[tigerRon]

Honestly makes me question the integrity of this game with the ratings being so flawed.
