To offer some insight, no, the ratings are not based solely off this year. Especially with the leagues most established. Rookies on the other hand, their initial rating was a projection since they had no NBA games to go off of. The rookie ratings will fluctuate heavily throughout the year as their true value comes to light

Rookie Ratings will fluctuate a lot more than All Stars, Defensive Player of the Years', and Finals MVPs, etc...

Parker's overall FG% is better than Wiggins as well as rebounding, assist and steals but Wiggins is better than him maybe I'm missing something cause I don't get it. What about the whole Tobias Harris and Jeff Green's rating comparison to Kawhi's or Vucevic and T. Chandler's rating comparison to Noah's. We are basing it off this year so far right? I'm not saying Harris and others should necessarily go up in rating but Noah, Kawhi and a few others should definitely receive decreases such as the ones given to Parker.....

I agree with you. Noah and Kawhi need decreases. I never thought Kawhi deserved the ratings he got. MVP or not.

There are other players at the same positions who are playing far better than both but yet still Kawhi Leonard has been getting increases in his overall and Noah who's just now receiving decreases (-1) off his rating with this recent update. I could understand your logic with tendencies but the rating system isn't being well proportioned throughout the entire roster. Check out Tobias Harris and Jeff Green's rating compared to Kawhi's or Vucevic and T. Chandler's rating compared to Noah's. If we're basing ratings off the year so far, this should speak for it self...

Comparing a rookie to a Finals MVP and a DPOY is crazy.

With a rookie, you should be basing it off the year so far. For vets, you need to use a larger sample size - with more subtle changes for improvements that may last throughout the year.

Overreacting and comparing Harris/Vucevic/Green to guys like Kawhi/Noah is just going to lead to crazy fluctuations throughout the year. That's not how the ratings should work. KL and Noah are on different levels from those guys - especially defensively.

I get the whole rookie thing but honestly, Kawhi & Noah are overrated on 2K period. I'm not really tripping on the overalls to much though. I'm talking about increases in areas where players are excelling and decreases in areas where players are struggling. Just how @Rashidi pointed out Parker's poor shooting, what about the other players? Kawhi is shooting 23% from 3's but yet his moving 3 is 78 and his standing 3 is 81 but Tobias Harris is shooting 44% from 3's, FG48% averaging 19pts 8 boards but yet his 3's are only 70 moving and 67 standing, something is wrong with that if you ask me. All I'm saying is if that's how ratings are being done, please look at each team especially for the ppl who play online...

Devs, please update the player ratings in MyTeam...please.
