NBA Live 14 Ultimate Team Details

[ItsOrangeBaby]

The news sound like they atleast making a quality ultimate team mode, but hopefully they don't pull off what they did what the other ultimate teams and just make it a 2 or 3 minute game.

why is everyone making a big deal out of the overall ratings? they dont mean anything. the individual ratings and tendencies will determine how good the player is usually. we dont know how live's rating system will work this year.

not to make it a game fight, but even 2ks overall ratings can change drastically just by adjusting off/def awareness. why dont we just wait and see what the other, specific ratings look like before we decide that a player does/doesnt deserve it?

You clearly don't know basketball if you think Blake is subpar.

He had less rebounds last year because he played significantly less minutes. I never said he deserved to be rated higher. I actually think his ratings is perfect for him. Considering all the other stars like CP3 and Melo seems to be at 87-89. What I did have a problem with was John Wall rated higher than Blake and closer to CP3. Dude sucks at everything besides his ability to push the tempo and finish in the fast break.

Player tendencies being accurate is much more IMPACTFUL IMO than the overall rating assigned to a player.

I've never understood the concept of crying about overall ratings especially when you can just jack up the ratings yourself if you don't agree with them.

Blake has yet to develop any post up game or any semblance of a jumper and the thing that bothers me most about Blake is that you never read anything about him coming back the next year and working on his game over the summer to expand his skills.

At the end of the day both players are flawed on offense and I don't view either guy as being capable of leading a team to a title being the #1 guy.

For the record I'm a bigger fan of lower ratings because I believe very few players should be considered ELITE.

Elite to me should be reserved for guys like Jordan, Bird, Magic, Russell or Wilt.

If EA rated the entire NBA under 90 overall with the exception of a few players like LeBron for example I wouldn't even care because I find in this day and age of the NBA there are more flawed players than ever before.
