NBA 2K13 Roster Update Details (2-2-13)

[dub541]

Earl Clark still needs to be bumped. The dude can shoot 3's but 2k act's like he can't.

Now if Earl Clark could get a rebounding, hustle, vertical, and speed/quickness increase we would be fine. The guy is averaging a damn near double double of 12 points per game and 8 rebounds with 3.1 offensive rebounds a game since becoming a starter. He is probably the fastest starter, and the most athletic next to Dwight. Not to mention he is shooting about 40 percent from the 3 point clip since becoming a starter in January.

I was blowing out the SAS with the Raps today, I was so shocked at how many alley oop fast breaks I was getting... almost every possession was a fast break dunk with DeRozan, Gay and Ross.

Bull****, should be an 80 at least. I don't get any rebounds play online with the Cavs and it's extremely frustrating, especially given how well TT has been rebounding lately.

Agree on the rebounding....disagree on the shooting. Mostly because 2K was kind of "psychic" when it came to TT's shooting ratings. He was overrated to begin with in terms of his shooting ratings.

I remember when the game came out thinking that Thompson was overrated as a shooter...because he was atrocious last season.

The only funny thing is this was pretty much the same even before they traded for Gay, except no one noticed because they paid no attention to the Raptors.

Especially since they added Pietrus....I'm not saying Pietrus is on the same level as Gay, he isn't...but the Raps were a sleeper with Derozan, Ross, and Pietrus....and with Lowry and Calderon. And when Bargnani was healthy...they were downright scary.

It took Rudy Gay getting traded there for anyone to notice.

The way I read your comment I thought you were talking about Chandler the whole time, all I saw was deserves 92 rating and I flipped lol.

That's because his Def Reb % last season was not good. 16.8%....the same as scrubs like Harangoady and Samardo Samuels....and SF's like Mbah a Moute and Tobias Harris.

It's up to about 20 this season...so his rating is a little low....but not as bad as it seems.

And it's hard to get strongly behind a TT boost when it's pretty clear that he's not even the best big on his own team since the Cavs acquired Speights. Which hasn't really surprised me because TT just isn't very good....no matter how hard Cavs fans try to talk themselves into it.

Chris Grant is a sissy....he caved to an agent's posturing, and passed on Jonas Valanciunas....that was the pick.

He better hope Dion Waiters works out....or in 2 consecutive drafts he will have passed on Valanciunas and Drummond....2 guys who could be centers in the NBA for the next 15 years....and sure would look nice alongside Kyrie.

That ain't good....

But he did the same thing in Atlanta when he was part of the front office who passed on CP3 and Deron to take Marvin Williams....true story.

How about chandlers dunk rating? That could easily go up. How bout his ball handling, the way they have it you can't dribble 5 steps without getting it stolen. I just don't see how they can make Chandler nearly the same rating as Javale McGee.
