With all of the overall player ratings released for NBA 2K15, we figured it would be easier to look at, if we arranged all of the players by team. Enjoy.

They almost got Brandon Davies rating right. He should be the worst player in the game...by far.

Seems counter-intuitive that the Lakers and Kings are in the top 8, but I guess they just have quality depth this year?
My Bulls are looking good. Butler is going to slide to the 2 guard and McDermott can play the 3... Switch them on defense so Butler can guard the stronger offensive SG/SF position and were in buisness. Gibson off the bench 1st and Brooks, Dunleavy and Miritec add great depth and shooting. Going to be fun in 2K.
Gotta say that in perspective both Pau (82) and David West seem underrated.
I wouldn't say West is only a point better than, for example Larry Sanders (almost criminally overrated at 79, I know He is supposedly this defensive beast, but he REALLY slipped last year) or that he isn't as good as Pekovic (who is almost as good as Pau with 81).
All in all I like the spread,although I might have liked it if it was just a tad more spaced (a bit to crowded IMHO in the 74-79 range).
Of course these are only ratings and only the overalls so it's no biggie, as long as it plays properly on the court and in the franchise modes then I'm cool with it.
****ing Bruno bring the raptors overall down lol but THANK YOU 2k for finally giving JV the rating he deserves WOOO I'm going to kill with my teams this year. Raptors x Knicks baby !!!
Is Jackson ' s deal fully guaranteed? If it is he'll probably be added in an update but if not we might not see him in the game this year. In particular when you consider he's out for the season.
Jackson's deal is fully guaranteed but I forgot that he won't actually be on the roster this year as he wasn't on the 20 man training camp roster. They guaranteed it as an act of good faith that he'll sign with them next year but since he's not on the TC roster he's technically not on the team. Hopefully he's in the free agent pool and won't need to be a CAP.
KJ McDaniels didn't officially sign until yesterday so I guess thats why he's not rated either. But Grant's contract wasn't reported until yesterday either so I was just wondering how he got rated but McDaniels didn't.
Can't wait to start a MyLeague with the Sixers, the 2015 draft class and shortened seasons. Will blow the first season but with two lottery picks, the return of Pep Jack and adding Saric to the roster could be a fun second or third season.
The only person out of all of these ratings that I think got the shaft was The Greek Freak. I could justify him being at the very least a 77 like Wiggins. Giannis has a better overall feel for the game than Wiggins at this point. But I have to wait and see how he plays.

True, although I guess full roster averages are somewhat misleading since:
*There are still missing players, not all teams have a full 15 man roster yet, and since most missing players are scrubs this should shift some teams (e.g. Bulls (12), Clippers (11) many with 13) down a notch.
*A better indication for strength would probably be 8-9 man averages, depending on the team, since this is a typical NBA rotation, as In guys that get major minutes (for example the 2013-14 Bulls only had 7 guys that played a significant mount (>19) of games and logged 28+mins, and only one additional players with (>9) minutes, of course Thibs is notorious for his short rotation)
Lol seems like the Bulls are the most overrated team on this list. Really? Jimmy Butler an 80? His defensive ratings must be 99 across the board because his offense is just pure irrelevant.

I love Giannis, and fully expect his rating to increase from where it currently is as the season goes on and they update rosters, but it's hard to justify a higher rating at the moment. Statistically, he really wasn't special last year with the exception of his free throw rate. He's definitely an eye-test kinda guy right now, but I expect pretty big things from him this year.

you do know that overall rating doesn't mean you're going to dominate right? It just rates him based on the category type of player he is. he will still be big and slow and average rebounding. He was still miss shots around the rim like he does in real life
