2K Sports announced yesterday that Kevin Durant will be 1 of 4 current NBA players with an overall rating above 90, in their new rating system. He will have an overall 95 rating.
DeMarcus has better range, better post moves. PER36 DeMarcus blows Dwight away. At age 23 DeMarcus was arguably better player. Better offensively and not a slouch defensively. Granted, Dwight is better player defensively, but DMC is not bad either. Defensive Win Shares for Dwight(4.1) and DMC(3.8) are not that far off. DMC has 4.1 OWS while Dwight has 4. WS/48 goes to DMC(.166 to .161 by Dwight). They have same DRTG while Dwight has +2 advantage in ORTG.
So, considering they are very very very close...it's not laughable. He's becoming one of the most dominant big men in the league...ya'll sleeping on him because he plays for SacTown.
Ppl sleep on him because of his issues and sactown not getting wins. You gotta any player with a good attitude will get more spotlight

In their offense, Harden also shoots like 30 times a game and the rest of them jack threes like no tomorrow so some could argue that Howard's touches are lower than years past. I don't think either of them should be 90's but I don't work for 2K
Listen guys and listen very closely paul george is o v e r r a t e d not top 15 nba player please with this stop the madness all he does is jack threes which he hits at about the nba average good defender but hes no gary payton solid ball handler he average at everything but defense omg this man does a 360 in game suddenly he a superstar NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO hes not
I'm not convinced he's a superstar either but I think considering he's a lockdown defender, a great athlete with a good shot and some good handles and regarded by many as a superstar I think it's a possibility he gets rated that high. He's really only looked like a superstar since the postseason a year ago and he started last season great as well but his numbers dropped off and his team started losing mid way through the year. He still has more to prove imo and now with the leg injury that only brings more questions into the mix.
i dont know if its right to compare Dwight and DmC right now because D12 is not even the main piece of his team. yall know what he can do when he is.
d12 is a step above because he can lead a team to a victory.
nevertheless i think dmc will be over dwight in a couple of years, he needs to improve a few things and control his angry issues.
I love it! Putting Duncan as the last 90 is great. The best part is that no one saw it coming. We all thought for sure it would be one of the big ESPN guys like Melo/Harden/Howard/Kobe but I think this is spot on. Very efficient player.
That is of course, if this is eventually confirmed.
And there is still one more out there so I guess it can still be one of those guys I mentioned but these guys are the ones I see as the most questionable to be a 90.
If ratings were based on actual play then Durant - 95, Lebron - 95, Boogie - 90, Anthony Davis - 90. Based on hype Lebron - 98, Durant - 95, Chris Paul - 94, Melo - 91.
