I just can't wait til he does get his rings. Then what are all the haters gonna say? Sorry to inform you but Lebron will end up with multiple rings before his career is over.

Besides the players that were posted in this thread as missing, can anyone think of others that are missing so that we can add them into our roster.

Congrats on correcting me =)

# 25 Angel_G @ 03/31/12 07:43 PM

Biggest Movers included Marcin Gortat, Rodney Stuckey, Arron Afflalo, Klay Thompson, Ramon Sessions and Lamar Odom (downgrade).

# 26 edubbs @ 03/31/12 08:02 PM

They finally changed the Wizards away/road socks to white.

thx 2k

# 27 saiint @ 03/31/12 08:19 PM

I have been sick of Gordon Hayward's miserable 63 rating, i got so sick of him never being upgraded that I finally tweeted 2k insider to fix it. Looks like he moved it to a 67. Although, this is not anything huge... I do appreciate the fact that he took my suggestions and made changes.

# 28 Angel_G @ 03/31/12 08:40 PM

Love and Aldrige need attributes that will make them average 21ppg.

# 29 gofresno @ 04/01/12 02:05 AM

They need to put Haddadi back on the 12-man roster for online. Selby got sent back to the D-League. Grizzlies need their #2 center rather than their #4 point guard!

Also they fixed Gilbert Arenas's number - 10.

Sorry, I just have no positive things to say about LeBron James as I see him as one of the most over hyped athletes in the history of sports who has not done ANYTHING and be compared to the greats of his sport is nothing short of an insult to those who TRULY achieved their rightful place on the ladder of success. "Prince" James as I refer to him because to be a King you must have the bling (Kobe, Jordan, Magic, Russell for example, heck I'll even throw Tim Duncan in there with 4).

Me too great talent overhyped an weak between the ears.

Will the Celtics ever having a rating update?

We are the only team this season to have not had any rating changes. If they're not gonna change the Big 4's ratings they could've at least upgraded Bass or AB, hell even Stiemsma he's better than 55.

Yeah tell me about it. There is no way that it should go Rondo, followed by KG, Pierce and Allen. Pierce needs to be 2nd best behind Rajon.

Nah, I think that order's fine. To be honest with you, KG has been the Celtics best player this season.

But Bass should be upgraded to at least a 75, Bradley should either get a rating increase or be moved to SG, Stiemsma should be in the 60's.

Not either, he NEEDS a boost pretty badly, I've been sending this tweet to the insider but no luck..

Avery Bradley -

66% at the rim - 2k rating = 60
80% Free throws - 2k rating = 50?
44% from mid range (more attempts/shots made and better % on way less playing time than Harden or Paul George - 2k rating = 65

On ball defense and defensive awareness too low...

also 15 ppg over the last 5 games as a starter. Not asking about a monster update, but based on his %'s those attributes should be in the 70's at worst , and both on ball and defensive awareness +80

His dribble pull-up should be upgraded to "good" as well

(LAL, LAC, MIA, Jeremy Lin, Steve Novak)

A decrease isn't exactly what I am looking for. Tony Parker is having an MVP caliber season but not many know it because of the hype that other players/teams receive. Consistency should be acknowledged and plenty of players that have not been positively upgraded have played well most, if not all season.

# 38 BezO @ 04/02/12 02:27 PM

These threads would be much better if folks talked about individual ratings. In other words, what do you want changed to bring a player's overall up?

Re: Cetics, same. Higher overalls doesn't mean one player is better than another. It only means 2K's overall formula results in higher numbers for a set of skills over another set. It's an arbitrary formula developed by a video game developer. "Better player" is relative.

Re: LeBrond James, c'mon. 2K is rating skills, not rings. James has maybe the best combination of size & skills ever. You can't lower his J, speed, strength, passing, ball handling, etc because he doesn't have rings. Until they come up with a "takes over in big games" rating, what would you have them do?

# 39 Jarbeez @ 04/03/12 08:12 PM

BezO, how about adding a choke rating similar to the clutch rating??

# 40 savorysneaks @ 04/03/12 10:39 PM

i was so excited when the game first came out and they kept updating shoes in the footlocker section i thought that was a nice touch but ever since Black History Month no shoes added which has kind of been a downer.
