Some people are just curious about the ratings. I know that I am. I do have to admit...the ratings war have been very tamed this year. Last year, it felt that there were tons of threads with 10+ pages of people arguing why Kobe should be rated higher than Melo, etc. Paul George is really the only consensus "Too high" rating.

nah his defense is horrid and he's undersized for a SG... his perimeter defense should be like a D+ in the game.
Haha he really is delusional. "Just as complete a player as Dwayne Wade". If you go off the last season or two, he is a starting two guard at best. So mid-late 70's.

I usually don't pay much attention to overall ratings, but analazyng his strengths , with just 68 overall I bet he will be severelly underrated in a lot of attributes. I mean, Chris freaking Johnson is 66 overall.... So this looks like a slap in the face for Zeller

That's my thing...I think a 68 WOULD be alright for Zeller if there weren't so many other players rated higher throughout the game who I sincerely doubt are better basketball players (although, you know, that's subjective and the overall rating doesn't REALLY matter anyway except in determining your team's overall rating which, I don't give a crap what anyone gets on here and tries to tell me, has an effect on your team momentum and ability to close).

Ultimately, I think by the time all was said and done (and Gerald Green was nice and nerfed) 2K13's player ratings were a relative strength of the game...however, it was always kind of ridiculous to me that Gordon Hayward was stuck at 68 when you had like Kelenna Azubuike at 71, Raja Bell and Mo Evans in the 70s, etc...

I know it's hard to keep everything in perspective with so many players in the game, but some things are just egregious. That's my thing with PG being an 80+ three point shooter. What does an 80+ three point shot rating translate into? For most everybody else in the game who's got that rating, it would be shooting at or near 40%. Yet, PG, who shot 35% I believe and Gerald Henderson, who shot 33% are like 20 points apart in the ratings. Andre Iguodala was at a 77 3-pt rating because of incessant complaining by the community by the end of 2K13s run, but shot 32% this year and 39.4% last year, almost 5 percentage points HIGHER than PG has ever shot. Hopefully this new stat tracking live roster system will alleviate that, but as primarily an OA player I look forward to seeing who will be 2K14's version of the "Gerald Green, Delonte West, Raja Bell, Mo Evans, Kelenna Azubuike, Josh Selby" class of players who are WAY, WAY, WAYYYYY better than they should be.

The amount of steals has very little correlation to being an overall good defender. It just means you're more likely to play the passing lanes, which can leave you prone to gambling and the player you're guarding haveing an easy drive.

Smfh Hibbert is so underrated. I can't wait to see M Gasol and Noah go in the low 80s too

I mean, I kinda disagree. Russ is pretty freaking good. The only PGs I'd rate above him right now are probably CP3 and Parker. (Maybe Rose if he's healthy).

Your claim of "no basketball IQ!" is completely inaccurate, especially as of late. Russ had the lowest turnover rate of his career last year, jacked up his assists to 7.4 per game, and had the highest PER of his career last season. Yes, he shoots a lot of mid range jumpers, but he's quite effective shooting above league average from that range, and still getting to the rim enough to keep his overall FG% at league average.

He's lethal in transition and also gets to the line for an average of 7 attempts per game. Yes, his defensive awareness needs work, but he's only 24 and he still hasn't reached his ceiling.

I think as long as CP3 and Parker are up there near or above his rating, 91 is perfectly fine.

By the looks of these ratings (top draft picks - high ratings) , I'm just going to assume that 2K is still using the same system they have been using for years.


So when you play association these guys will be rated in the high 80's after 1 season and every flaw (fast development) is still in the game.


It's totally unrealistic that Bennett has a 76 rating and Gasol 81. I know these ratings are simply a number and there is so much more to it because of tendencies, capabilities, ... but this is 2K and they have shown that the a high overall rating matters.
 
# 153 Gramps91 @ 09/13/13 01:05 PM
I personally have no problem with these. I think Rose should be a tad higher, LeBron and PG should be a tad lower. Other than that no problems at all from me.

Well said, i agree 100%. I don't think 2k realises the ramifications their high overall system (especially for young players) has on Association.

Nothing wrong with a Chicago fan asking for rival Pacers, Heat star players getting a ratings drop, while theirs' getting a boost.

Wow, what the heck did they do to Rose's uniform??

LD2K already stated that Day 1 the ratings will change.


@nogster, whether that includes tendency updates... still to be seen. I've asked the question to LD2K and Ronnie2K but never received any word back.

Rondo couldn't shoot Hitler even if he had a nuclear missile. Don't be delusional.

Dude, I know that's why I said in my initial post that "one game does not a baller make". Just not blown away with the guy whenever I watch him play in NCAA and no I don't watch Summer League. If he turns out to be a great productive player in the pros more power to him I don't benefit from his success or failure...
