NBA 2K16 Player Ratings - Top Rated Point Guards (UPDATED)

[XxSpiritHunterX]

Think Westbrook is still the best Guard in the league. But at least he should've been a 90

So that means we about to have a whole lot of mediocre pgs in this game smh

Lol... thats something people who don't watch them play would say.

Steph improved tremdously on defense. In fact, most advanced metrics have him as the best defensive point guard last year.

Putting CP3 over him? I can see an argument for that.

Russ? Not a chance. People are slobbering all over him because he had some triple doubles.... that were horribly inefficient... and he put up in LOSSES.

Russ is really overrated by most fans now. He's a top 5 athlete. And his skillset is of an all star caliber. But his decision making is literally the worst of every starting point guard in the league. His attitude and hot headedness is childish. And defensively his athleticism and quick hands covers up how awful he truly is. He's constantly being caught out of position and he reaches far too often.

Russ isn't a top 3 point guard. I will happily argue with ANYONE that Mike Conley is a more effective PG. I would even go as far as to make an argument for Wall > Westbrick

Regardless. CP3 and SC30 are top 2. After that you could debate all day.

But hey. Overall doesn't matter anyway. It means nothing. Or so I'm told.

Can't be mad with the top 10 seems about right. I could argue that Rose could be lower based off last season but whatever.

Westbrook: Arguably the best athlete at the PG position in history kind of crazy when you think about it. Speed, vertical, acceleration, stamina, dunking in traffic his defense is pretty good too. However his shooting isn't great and decision making isn't high despite having high assist numbers and he turns the ball over a ton. He gets tunnel vision at times

Paul: Probably the most complete guard of the list, shooting, defense, coach on the floor, passing despite being on the smaller in stature side. He isn't going to finish like Westbrook or turn on the jets like him but he gets it done. One of the best passers.

Curry: Probably the best shoot off the dribble shooter in NBA history. Really a great finisher in the lane without dunking. Slept on defensive ability has improved a ton from say two years ago but I would say is average on that end. Really good pass vision but gets a little fancy at times and it leads to T.O.'s. He has whole gym range

They did, but also they said that they will take into account a player's last three/four seasons with the most recent season weighing the most and stack that up against the all-time greats in their best season for said categories.

These rating are compared to the greatest players in history right? Well how is steph a 93 vs all the legends in history and lebron is only a 94..

Lebron in my opinion is the greatest SF ever so even if it's by position he should be at-least 96+. Curry being rated a 93 vs Lebron being a 94 and Paul being a 90 is kinda weird. Considering the new rating system.

With Paul being the best Point guard(By definition -passer, defender, decent shooter from 3 and one of the best midrange games) you would think he would be the highest rated. Maybe Curry's shooting put him over the top? I don't know..I guess. Good list tho, I was just wondering the logic they used for the ratings.

Lol. Kobe is an 85. Didn't even play a full season in 2 years.

Rose is 84 and played 85% of the season and helped the bulls to the 2nd round.

Not really that much difference in ratings but that's clearly in house Kobe love.

And Westbrook is definitely a top 3. That's just crazy to say he's not.
Lead the L in scoring. Top rebounding PG. Top 10 in assists.
