Re: NBA 2K15 Player Ratings Revealed For the 11th Overall Rated Player Through 20

I like most of these ratings but, I feel like I'm not understanding this "Player type" argument. If you categorize players based on their play styles and then grade them on how good they are at that specific style, a guy like Tony Allen should be in the top 15. Sure he couldn't drop 25 points to save his own life, but as far as perimenter defense, LeBron, Jimmy Butler, PG13 and maybe Shumpert are the only other guys in the conversation. Right? What am I missing?

The idea is that attribute points in a category that a player is identified in are weighted higher. So "Steal" and "On ball defense" may be worth .3 points to a defensive minded player like Tony Allen, but only be worth .2 points to a guy like Kyle Korver whereas it's the reverse for shooting categories.

So let me get this straight, Rose is an 88, and so is Westbrook? Did they watch the NBA? This isn't MVP Rose we are talking about...

On no planet is Stephen Curry a better player than Russell Westbrook. Westbrook's last 2 seasons are better than any season Curry has ever had and this postseason Russ was one of the leagues best few players while Curry had a terrible postseason. And that's not even mentioning defensively where Curry is nowhere near Westbrook.

Idk what games you're watching, but I'll take curry over Westbrook 10 out of 10 times

My issue here is that 2K has kinda been doing Dirk wrong in previous years when he had better stats but a low to mid 80s rating. Now his stats are decreasing and you raise his rating to an 88? It boggles the mind!

Different people in charge this year - and Dirk had his best season since the 2010-2011 season, so the 88 is still well deserved.

Kevin Love - 26 ppg, 45%, 37% from 3, 82% FT, 12.5 Rebs, 4.4 assists.


And, if these stats are accurate, he also had the 3rd highest PER in the league, behind Durant and Lebron. You should double check, though, I could be wrong.

So does any of this relate to how good the players will be, because there is no way both Howard and Harden are a 88 (low).

Curry is a better player, if only marginally. Curry's last postseason was underwhelming because of Mark Jackson's lack of offense and the pick and roll became extremely predictable. It's the equivalent of Westbrook without Durant.

Also Westbrook's defense is overrated. Flashy and athletic based on gambles, yes. Actual difference making according to advanced metrics? No.

So for does who are saying dirk is overated take a good look in the stats you will see who is overrated or correctly rated....

Dirk Nowitzki (2013-2014) - 21.7 PPG, 49.7 FG%, 39.8 3pt%, 89.9 FT%, 6.2 RPG, 2.7 AST, 0.6 BLK, 0.9 STL, 60.3 TS%, 23.6 PER, 108 DRtg. 120 ORtg, 8.6 OWS, 2.3 DWS, 10.9 WS.

Tony Parker - 16.7 PPG, 49.9 FG%, 37.3 3pt%, 81.1 FT%, 5.7 AST, 2.3 RPG, 0.1 BLK, 0.5 STL, 55.5 TS%, 18.9 PER, 107 DRtg. 110 ORtg, 3.9 OWS, 1.9 DWS, 5.9 WS.

Dirk Nowitzki has proven time after time that he's one of the upper top 15 most IMPACTFUL players to play this game yet he continues to be underrated because people will say "player A is the more "complete" player so he's automatically better" when in fact that's not always the case. Dirk is not a great defender but he always had a better Defensive win shares than Kobe (12 Time All Defensive team) and only Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett, Shawn Marion, Paul Pierce and Dwight Howard have a better career DWS than him in corrent NBA Players. He never was, and never will be, but understand, I weigh IMPACT heavier than "completeness"

Pple complaining about bryants rating are forgetting about his alter ego. Kobe may be rated in the high 70's, but the black mamba is at LEAST a 92. Also....Tony Clifton

Dirks physical attributes better be low and slow

[Jakeness23]

Harden should be an 86 or 85 IMO, he plays no defense and he often makes horrible passes that lead to turnovers.
