This "update" is infuriating.

# 42 dmitch7 @ 02/17/12 06:37 PM

I know no one besides me and other blazers fans care but its ridiculous that lamarcus aldridge hasn't had a raise in his ratings. Top 5 in scoring before he got hurt.

Offensive awareness is a bit too high, but he played like a 92 in the Raptor's game. 80-85 would be a good conservative rating.

His ball security looks pretty good until he gets gassed and starts making poor decisions. If anything, I feel that his stamina is rated too high. Unfortunately, I don't think 2K ties the likelihood of losing the ball to fatigue. I agree that his off-hand rating is too high since his weakness is the innability to go left.

Jeremy is actually capable of playing good defense. It's really odd as a Warriors fan to hear people knock his D because that's all he did last year and he was easily the best defensive player on our team (outside of maybe Udoh). 78 doesn't seem too high when he had a ridiculous per 48 steal number last year with a decent sample size-- I would keep it at 78 until we really see the steals drop off over many games.

Disappointing to say the least.

# 45 sactown_13 @ 02/17/12 08:25 PM

Not gonna be around the system for a bit, any word on if D. Cousins got a slight boost? Currently rated a 71 and he is third in the nba in double-doubles. Been killing it for a couple of weeks now. Tryin to figure out how Linn got two updates in a week or so and most players havent been touched. Im not just being a homer either as the numbers clearly state that J. Salmons needs a big decrease cause he is playin terrible. Hickson should be decreased while Thompson should receive a slight increase.

I had aldridge in a league. He is more than capable of scoring with his current rating. Only thing I would say is his close range rating needs to be 80 - 84 (think it's like 76). When Varejao has a higher close rating than he does, that is pretty laughable.

Just glad they fixed his jumper.

I agree but I think he atleast deserves to be an 85 so he's a star in the game

That's cause the NBA doesn't care about small market teams. And if Kevin love is a star aldridge should be one too.

Chris Johnson has been missing for like 2 years lol good luck with that one. Might as well add JR Smith to that list. I think Bogans and Diogu are in the FA pool though.

2K needs to update my man Nikola Pekovic, he has been putting in serious work. Love and Pekovic are a dangerous duo in the paint.

# 56 logobitombo @ 02/18/12 06:26 AM

the only thing they basically updated in jeremy lin.. ok hes a good player.. but i mean come on.. look at how many rookies are missing.. more than 15 rookies are missing..id add the players first then fix the ratings.. the updates are all over the place.. sometimes its rating.. then a couple rookies.. then fix some hear the add a few more rookies.. they have no idea what theyre doing..

# 57 Junaid14 @ 02/18/12 10:12 AM

They put JR Smith in the knicks

# 58 Mintsa @ 02/18/12 11:08 AM

I played some ranked games this morning. My oppenant used the Knicks and Melo was activated and in the starting line up and JR Smith was also on the roster as well.

I'm surprised Melo was active. He still hasn't returned from the injured list yet.

# 59 HolyStroke3 @ 02/18/12 11:48 AM

I'm going to do a full accesory edit of this roster, as well as adding the 17 missing players and the overseas guys (Wilson Chandler, Aaron Brooks, etc.). My last one took about 5 days, so I'm hoping to have this done by mid-week, next weekend at the latest. If anyone is interested I'll put it on 2K Share

# 60 Goffs @ 02/18/12 12:18 PM

I like how they updated Lin's accessories but yet Chandler has no arm sleeve...

EDIT: no art update either...
