I agree, it's pretty ridiculous. Inconsistency on the part of the Insider. Dirk is pretty accurate, though so many players this year are overrated. I chalk it up to Signature Skills. Might need confirmation on that.

Accounting for Melo's meh defense, I think 86-88ish range would be fair. I've also got an inkling 2K has overrated his rebounding.

Still no Kyrie, but hey we got Walton!

As long as simulated seasons produce accurate stats it should be fine. No major jumps in shooting % is usually a problem. Or vice versa when bigs who normally shoot well over 50% end up far below

Terry is just as inconsistent which is why he plays off the bench... and is on the decline of his career.... no shade tho... Im just saying...

Difference is, where Jason Terry is a pretty bad defender, Nick Young is a horrendous defender. I'd say JT is the more efficient scorer, too. That said, you're right, 77 might be a bit too high.

It doesn't matter if Nick Young can dunk on people when he barely shoots 40%...

If 2 guys have the same rebound rate they should get the same rating and not based on position. Players are rotating between positions more often so that shouldn't play a major factor

Luke Walton though? I need to talk to whoever is responsible for 'leaking' his overall ASAP! lol

True. Honestly, my Association stats are always F'd up one way or another. I strive for realism so it's pretty annoying. I'm always waiting on someone to fix the game for me.

It irks me seeing about 25+ players averaging 20 points or more. Sounds like a minor thing, but when everone starts demanding these huge contracts, teams can't sign them and you get quality players just sitting in free agency. Association needs some love.

The only thing I play is association. Takes a lot of time adjusting tendencies and the like to get the simulation as accurate as possible. But I want my experience to be as realistic as possible.
