Haha this isn't true... Where are you getting your stats from??

I just looked at my 2K12 rosters and it's rated somewhat very close to the 2K13 ratings (overall, not individual) Weird occurrence.

YOU are the Insider. Haha

When he does, people will have to play up on him again and he'll look a lot more athletic driving past them.

being a great scorer at one level does not automatically translate.

Either way, I'm just concerned with Wade's rating whenever they release it. If Kobe's a 93, I really don't want Wade to be overrated having won another championship. We'll see, I guess.

Kobe has been overrated the last 4 years

Just because they haven't played yet doesn't mean they don't have skill.

Trust me, He's gonna be a much better NBA player than he was a college player.

Not even close, MKG is a much better pick then Rivers right now. Look, we don't know how either one is gonna pan out in the league, but I would build a team around MKG, his unselfishness, work ethic, defense, and athleticism makes him a easy pick over Rivers. Rivers is definitely a SG, he has a better jumper then MKG, that's all I would give him, there is a reason Kidd-Gilchrist went Number 2 you know.

austin rivers rating reminds me of jimmer fredette's rookie rating in 2k12. they were both great scorers in college, great shooters, and both lacked defensively. both are not true pg's henceforth 60's rating. it seems austin will have to prove himself worthy of a 70s rating this season

No offence mate,but did you see him in summer league he struggled big time and I think it will be a few years until we see him develop,the rating is on point imo.

# 70 manustyle90 @ 09/06/12 05:32 AM

i hope amare has the "glass breaker" signature skill

# 71 KDurant35 @ 09/06/12 06:55 AM

CP3 can't be 94 if Durant is 94..93 would be good for him, or put Durant back at 95

# 72 Mac33 @ 09/06/12 07:09 AM

Guys what do overall ratings even mean really? Austin will still be effective. We all know this. I'm cool with the ratings.

Austin Rivers is a 67 as a PG, probably 70-72 as a SG. I forget what Jimmer's rating was as a PG but iirc it went up by like 3 points when I switched him to a SG.

# 74 iLLosophy @ 09/06/12 08:42 AM

Is there any reason why we can't see the screens for players who's already had their ratings released (like we did with durant, rose, griffin, and jordan)?

# 75 violatedterror @ 09/06/12 09:20 AM

84 for Stoudemire?! I see him as more of an 83.75.

Why is it year after year people still continue to overreact to numbers? Can't we at least wait 'til the game is in our hands to whine and complain?

# 76 YoungBuck3 @ 09/06/12 09:30 AM

When will people learn? overall rating doesn't mean ****. As long as they play true to their real life counterparts, what difference does that little "overall" rating matter, it's all of the other, specific, ratings that matter.

Last year Dirk was what like 85 or something? so many people I know were raging about it "wah wah wah Dirk an 85, put a championship on his back", but his overall didn't mean jack, Dirk was beast on the game if you played him like Dirk, his stats were great for making Dirk like Dirk, that's all that matters.

They should just do away with the overall rating, it doesn't mean a damn thing beyond giving people something to complain about "if this guy is an 84 my guy better be an 87" blah blah blah lol. I don't care whether a guys overall says he is 75, 85, 9001, as long as the other numbers equal a realistic representation of the player. When you're actually playing a game, what relevance does that overall number have to you? none? it's the other stats that matter. People in here talking about how Bosh needs to be better than Amare, Bosh is a better player than Amare in my opinion, but I don't give a damn who has a higher overall rating, what I care about is that Bosh plays like Bosh and Amare plays like Amare.

No offense but this thread was created to discuss their ratings. We are all feigning for the game and who does it hurt for a ratings debate/discussion to occur in a thread about ratings? Don't click the link next time if these discussions get on your nerves.

Really simple solution IMO.

# 78 madman773 @ 09/06/12 09:55 AM

I just hope they dont overrate kobe at the begging of the season cause he should be a 89 or somwhere in that area.avging 30ppg and shotting 43% from the field for a 6'7 sg is not good at all.

# 79 bm011 @ 09/06/12 12:29 PM

First set of ratings that I actually like. I would maybe put amare down a point or two, but thats just nit-picking. I was starting to get worried that these rookies would all be high to mid 70's (with davis at 80) and that our whole concept of ratings was just going to be elevated.

# 80 Thunder Storm @ 09/06/12 12:36 PM

As soon as I saw that Amare 84 in the title I knew this thread would be full of whining and bishing. Not even gonna read all this lol. Just wait for the game guys.

2K is just predicting a bounce back year.
