Stop comparing players that don't play the same position.

So CP3 vs. Rose is your only legit complaint.

CP3 will have a higher IQ (awareness) and higher defensive skills. So that is why he is higher.

You can't argue that.

I see most of you guys complain about the ratings....but Come on guys... the game isnt even out yet... and you dont know if the have improved the tendencies of the players to make them play like themselves....

And your saying that to say what...anybody can go off in the playoffs but can you go off when it counts the most in the playoffs...1-3 quarters lights out 4 quarter " ill dish it to chalmers or miller" 6'8 260 with Marion/Stevenson/kidd guarding him...oh OK but I forgot I'm "stupid "

Man we do this every... single... year! I won't go in to detail about why overall ratings are not as important as people like to believe they are. However, I will say that basically every sports game in this day and age allows you to completely edit the roster to your liking. I usually have to go through every single team to adjust potential ratings cause I don't like how they play out in Association. So if you guys want to make LeBron a 60 overall or give Ricky Rubio a 99 overall, you can do so. Problem solved, right?

But my issue is for people that claim he doesn't deserve a 99 because Jordan had one. As if Jordan is the best at every possible skill in basketball history.

You mean to tell me Dirk has the same midrange skill as Jordan. A 7ft dirk should be able to hit a J over 6'8'' forwards. Nobody said Jordan is the best skilled in every aspect of the game. But Jordan revolutionized the midrange jumpshot. Watch some tape, forget a videogame.

Ratings really don't come into play unless ur in association mode...online Bayless can look like Westbrook..plus all these ratings tendencies and attributes will change just like last year...McGee started at a 66 but jumped to a 73 or j.r smith started at like 75 but dropped to a 67

Stop blowing every little announcement out of proportion

# 148 Colts18 @ 09/27/11 01:44 PM

I am saying that statistically Dirk's mid range was out of this world last season. Off the charts. The highest shooting % from mid-range since HoopData has been calculating shot locations. That is about 6-7 years now.

We don't have hard data for Jordan, so it is easy to say, "Jordan woulda coulda shoulda."

So I don't see the issue at all.

Jordan didn't revolutionize the mid range shot. His was lethal but revolutionize, not sure I would go that far. But that still has nothing to do with how magical Dirk's mid range was last season.

Forget the names, look at the results.

beasley deserve higher than what he got

# 151 ronyell @ 09/27/11 01:48 PM

everyones complaining about overall ratings & specific shooting ratings is always funny to me!!!

OVERALL RATINGS TAKE INTO ACCOUNT ALL ABILITIES!!!

some players OVERALL is low because they are good or great in only particular categories. in those instances they probably have a high rating in those PARTICULAR areas that they excel in (Dirk 99 mid-shot & 85 overall - Bargnani 67 overall & high shooting ratings)

the overall is also weighted by certain abilities pertaing to their position. so softer, non-rebounding, face-up shooting bigs' overalls' will be lower than expected if they are playing center or PF because they lack the other skills tht are weighted to those positions. consequently if you moved them to SF you would see their overall changed higher due to the fact SF ratings are weighted by shooting & more athletic ratings.

same thing goes for the guards that people are complaining about... Rose's OVERALL is high because OVERALL he has a LOT of great abilities (defensive, speed, quickness, iq, decent shot)...

VERY ANNOYING when people think someone deserves high ratings just because they can score. (its a microcosm of the world & sports today... basketball is more than scoring & highlight dunks & blocks)

tendencies & actual in game play matter far more than OVERALL RATING... play a game where Jason Kapono is left open often & watch how he will roast you just like he should... all while having a 64 overall...

all that being said... 2k DOES seem to skew the hell out of other areas & ratings but for the most part i complain about the way they render tendencies (which is what truly alters in-game play)

overall ratings affect rotation & importance in association mode

tendencies affect in-game play

if you want Brgnani's overall higher, ur gonna have to make him a MUCH better rebounder & post defender than he actually is & if you want Rose to be lower, you're gonna have to make him slower & dumber than he actually is.

If he can jab step and pop mid range jumpers and drive to the bucket, why does it matter.

What should he be and why?

he should be a 85-89 because hes a pure score can play both 3 and 4 has a shot and can defend sometimes...he will be one of the top players in the league if the lockout ends....

# 154 Colts18 @ 09/27/11 01:52 PM

People hear the name Jordan and just turn their noses up whenever anyone else says another player is better/equal to Jordan in any skill. I could say my father washes cars better than Jordan and someone would tell me that since my father doesn't have any rings that it is impossible for that to be true.

It is essentially speaking of God.

Beasley? 85-89?

You must hang out with him alot and participate in similar activities as him.

# 156 ronyell @ 09/27/11 01:57 PM

those who understand how overall ratings work ahould stop arguing with those who dont & if they REFUSE to read the posts about how it actually works... let them complain away & skew their own rosters.

some people just mainain arguments & overlook information to get their post count up.

we will continue to edit as we see fit... clearly somethings are (ridiculous as they may seem) are FAR more subjective than we thought

Just because Dirk is 7ft does not take away the fact he is one of the best (if not the best) perimeter big man to ever step foot on a court and will go down as one of the greatest shooters ever. Irregardless of his height or position.

easy buddy, said MIDRANGE JUMPSHOT so stop right there. Your whole comment is pointless. Lets be honest Dirk had an excellent post season don't get me wrong. But pull up midrange, or jab, or anytime in midrange, Jordan is better then Dirk im sorry, my opinion. Dirk is a better overall shooter, including longer range but midrange. No way.

Concrete evidence.

Oh I see, because I called you out on speaking crazy you now threaten to cook me on a video game. As if that dismisses you from your previous statement. Beasly has game. I am not denying that. But to say he is anywhere near an 89 just lets me know that he must be a friend of your family.
