2K Sent us the overall ratings for every player in each team's starting five. Give the list a look through and let us know what you think! Did 2K rate your team right? Any surprises? Let us know!
Linas Kleiza 55? The worst starter in the league? I mean really? What a joke. And DeRozan will be starting, Barbosa will continue to be 6th man, it's his natural role, spark plug off the bench.
These ratings threads always give me a good laugh. It’s hilarious seeing people freak out about an overall rating. I’m sure it’s been mentioned numerous times in this thread but the overall rating is the combination of each individual rating. The overall rating is not some subjective number that the developers make up. I have no problem with Tim Duncan being rated higher than Dwight Howard because Tim is an overall more polished player. Sure Dwight has him beat in athleticism, dunking, blocking, rebounding but Tim is better than Dwight in nearly every offensive category. I would have a problem though if Tim had a 99 dunk and Dwight had a 99 free throw. As long as the individual ratings are on point and players play like themselves, I have no gripes.
Duncan's still right there with Gasol. If this was the end of the 2011 season I'd agree though. Tim is still a better defender (one of the best in the league STILL) and his offensive skills are still there as well, though he's no longer as good as Gasol in that area. The numbers to look at though is MPG. Gasol plays 6 more minutes per game than Duncan. I'm sure the stamina rating reflects that.
Gasol this season vs the Spurs 21.0 points, 12.7 rebs, 5.3 ast, 3.3 blks, and 1.3 steals
Gasol should be with the elite now, he's getting respect, but still deserves more. He was the most consistent player with the Lakers, and I will say this, when Kobe was out, the Lakers were still winning big games...when Gasol is out they turn to an average team.
Dang Wall at 81, in that case Jeremy Lin should be 85 for destroying him. Rose should definitely be an 89. Also Ellis shouldn't be rated so poorly either. & Noah should definitely be higher he's at this point an All-Star caliber Center.

Isn't he rated the #2 PF in the game? I'd say that's elite...

Yeah, but he's proven that he's the best big man in basketball. He shouldn't be rated number 2 to anybody, not even Duncan right now. Duncan is still great, but right now he is not better than Pau Gasol.

So much ignorance right here in one little paragraph.
When exactly did Lin destroy Wall?
Wall: 21 points, 10 assists, 8 rebounds.
Lin: 13 points, 4 assists, 4 rebounds.
Yeah man, Lin definitely destroyed him.
Rose an 89? What exactly is he good at besides getting to the rim, making tough layups, and jumping out of the gym? His outside shot is nowhere to be found and his defense is suspect at best.
Again, Noah higher? Rebound, defend, hustle. What else is there for him?
Is anyone else getting sick of detroit always players being underated and players not looking like themselves. Jonas 66? and stuckey for example never looks wright.

Are the playoffs the only games of the season? No.
Did the Spurs and the Lakers even play against each other in the playoffs? No.
Did the Lakers only play the Spurs this year? No.
But you also neglected to mention that Gasol played 7 more minutes per game than Duncan did in the season series.
Duncan vs LAL this season 17.8 ppg, 12.8 rpg, 3.8 apg, 2.8 bpg, 1.2 spg in 37.0 mpg
You were saying?

Rose is one of the best midrange shooters in the WHOLE LEAGUE. The stats from last year back it up.
This whole thread gets a big sigh from me. Everyone has their opinion. Some make more sense than others but at the end of the day its all subjective. Until 2K actually develops a CONSISTENT SCALE to ratings which applies regardless of personal opinion and team or player allegiance, the ratings argument will be endless and annoying. Even if they are 100% accurately scaled to statistics, there are so many intangible ratings that are subject to opinion.
