NBA 2K15 Player Ratings Revealed For the 75th Overall Rated Player Through 51

Re: NBA 2K15 Player Ratings Revealed For the 75th Overall Rated Player Through 51

Just like everybody else forgets the majority of the season

To keep/improve his rating he will have to perform much better than he did in the playoffs. Player's like Hibbert and Bogut impact the game in so many ways that basic statistics can't always show. Having an elite rim protector is a valuable asset to a team. There is a reason teams spend so much money to keep these types around

The scary part is...even WITH his post ASB collapse, advanced metrics will show he was STILL a top 3 (I want to say #1, but I don't remember off the top of head) DEFENSIVE/RIM PROTECTOR center.

There's a stat that shows the average FG% of players against Roy Hibbert when he "contests" shots or uses verticality around the rim relatively to the number of shots taken against him. I'm pretty sure he lead the league by a sizable margin. Also, you have to take in consideration his DWS and how much the defensive metrics are impacted when he's off the floor.

He might have not been much as a scoring or rebounding center, but you can't deny his defensive impact when he's on the floor. Indiana's defensive scheme was to protect the 3PT shot, force players to take tough mid-range jumpers, and "funnel" driving players into Roy Hibbert.

Roy Hibbert is a solid player don't get me wrong but after that playoff performance last year, he should be 75 or lower

Yup. I'm just thinking what will I do when Al gets old. Who will I bring in? Also with Steph Curry talking about a possible homecoming I'll have decisions to make.

Joel Embiid is obvious answer with that max money as RFA. Also DeMarcus Cousins.

How did he play when Bynum wasn't around? Like his true self.

I'm dying to know what kind of individual ratings justify Rubio's 79.

He's not a 79 athlete. He's not a 79 defender. He's not a 79 shooter.

He better be a good ball handler to go along with his passing skills...

But with the new injury system I'm afraid Embiid might be another Bynum lol. And Boogie would be a nice fit but he might bolt for a bigger market. So I might have to take a chance on Embiid.

I'm already loving the new game just for having me think this way lol.

Rubio is a great passer, a fastbreak machine, his fundamentals might be high.

81 is okay for my man P squared, I predicted 82 or 83. Hopefully he has some sweet "badges". Joe Jesus is low at 82 the man has game.

Looking at the Isiah Thomas pic the graphics still have along way to go

MCW for me is overrated!

He's probably considered to be a "pass first" PG is be my guess. From that perspective, the 79 would make sense to me.

MCW with an 80? for real? Playing the highest pace in the league inflated his stats or is it just me? On the other hand, this isn't really all that important to be honest.

Playoffs....you forgot about the 82 games he played before the playoffs. On the old ratings, I would have rated him between 74 and 77. As a defensive center and with the new ratings system, 80 is right on the money.

There literally isn't one thing that Brandon Jennings is good at. Terrible shooter, whether its at the rim or his J. Terrible defender. Terrible vision. Terrible playmaking ability. Can't facilitate to save his life. I guess he is good at not turning the ball over...but that's mainly because he's not passing to set up his teammates, risking getting the ball stolen.


How in the world is he an 80? SMH. Should be a 72.
