Regarding Stuckey he's not a very good PG, he's a great Combo guard who has unlimited potential.

# 42 jewelz1132 @ 09/21/08 02:48 PM

I feel that Andre Miller should be in the top 10 in PGs

rating Kobe a 99 is even a stretch.. But there's no question that he was probably shafted in some ratings (see - rebounding) and other players were boosted in others (see Lebron - defense) to make them all equal.

Thank god for 2k share.. God forbid these morons get the rosters right. One year they're missing players, the next year they have everyone and completely make the player ratings meaningless because of how high everyone is.

It will be interesting to see if the game actually plays right with these settings.

I'm sure as the Beta gets played more someone would be able to mention if they've felt like adjusting anything? I still wonder if the letter grading has just affected their scale somehow.

Hey, Steve thanks for posting these! It would be cool if you could do the Free Agents next.

A.Miller is vastly underrated Calderon overrated along with Ford,Bibby,and they have Kirk H better than Ben Gordon D Wade has a 97 and didn't do jack last season he should be low 90's Kevin Martin should be like 88 it's a few more but those stood out

what did kevin martin do last season to deserve 88?

# 50 DakkoN @ 09/21/08 04:03 PM

When healthy Arenas has been among the top scorers in the league. Videogames typically give more points towards offense ratings. It's not a rating of who makes their team better, but a rating based on just pure stats for the most part

# 55 Furq @ 09/21/08 04:15 PM

Also like I said in another thread let's wait and see how this plays. The numbers by themselves are meaningless which is why there's no real point in complaining about someone being rated a 99 overall.

All that matters is how they play relative to everyone else in the game

# 56 RubenDouglas @ 09/21/08 04:28 PM

the past years, they have been position specific in regards to ratings. so to get a better grasp you look at the ratings relative to other players in their same position.

is anyone down to make a excel spreadsheet like the PG ratings weve seen but for SG-C?

so we should knock down Wade because his team failed to make the playoffs?

Kevin Martin is an excellent young player.

# 58 bigd916 @ 09/21/08 04:34 PM

You know the ratings are messed up when Mike Bibby has a B- in Perimeter D.

Sportsgamer is doing the rest of the positions M-Th.

# 60 BTB @ 09/21/08 05:11 PM

How does KP43 (lol kendrick perkins) only have a C+ for post D? The dude is one of the best 1 on 1 post defenders in the league. And a B for rebounding? Underrated. KP43 is a beast on defense downlow.

On the flipside I'm loving Rondo's rating, although I hope he's capable of hitting outside shots in the game. He def hit some big ones for us the playoffs.
