NBA 2K16 Roster Update Available Now, Details Included (1-8-16)

[bwright25]

I agree on the aspect that a player's stats reflect the type of player but still adherently believe that an 89 overall is dare I say, overrated?

I will use another excellent passing big man as my example, Blake Griffin.
This season Blake Griffin is averaging 23p, 8.7r, and an even 5a/ game.
We take those numbers vs. Draymond Green who shoots 46% while Blake Griffin is at 50%. Now using your argument of (a players stats reflect the player, I also maintain my argument that a players STATISTICS reflect his OVERALL in this game.

That all being said Draymond Green is an 89 and Blake Griffin is an 89 also. If I'm Blake Griffin my statistics are justified, for Draymond Green 1 more rebound and nearly 10 less points/gm and I'm wondering where this comes from??? Now Damian Lillard who you pointed out, I was not making a case for, as he is not overrated is he?

Its not just about stats.

It's starting to get annoying, a few weeks back I wouldn't be to overly mad at this, but he's been balling lately, not MVP like but pretty good. It makes no sense that he is still declining.. He's consistently attacking the goal, pushing the pace, finding open teammates. Why is he still dropping?

At the beginning of the season I actually agreed with his attribute decline (except on defense where he's been pretty damn solid IMO) but now it's become confusing. This update is based on the past few games, correct? If so, he has been a terror for defenses. He's showing flashes of that elite athleticism, shiftiness and acrobatic finishing ability. I can't jump on board w/ the drop.

And yet Kobe goes up a point overall from one good game. It's easier for me to understand when they don't raise a guy's stats, because there are so many players in the league that I'm sure it's incredibly hard to catch everything. But when you go out of your way to significantly reduce a guy's ratings when he's playing the best he has in a long time, I'm stumped.

All that being said, I still have tons of love for the 2k guys and the effort they've put in post-launch. I don't always agree with everything they do but it's still as good as any sports game around in my opinion.

Porzingis has shot 35% over his last 15 games. LOL one bad game?

Melo is shooting 43% so please stop inventing stats

He's only averaging 2.7 TOs for the year, which gives him about a 2:1 assist/TO ratio. If he had been on a streak of notably sloppy play, I'd get it, but again, he's playing the best he has all year and he's still dropping. I agree with you that his dunk rating should be much lower than it has been, just seems funny that they drop it so severely overnight while he's looking the best he has in 4 years physically

Tim Duncan had his dunk ratings addressed in a big way. Not every attribute is addressed on a daily basis.

Kobe's last 10 games: 21.3 PPG, 41.9 FG%
Kobe's first 20 games: 15.8 PPG, 31.3 FG%

One good game?


95% of the people who are making comments about the rating changes are writing flat out wrong assumptions that actual research quickly debunks.

Did they seriously not fix the TWolves rebounding ratings? Pekovic is at like a 40 rebound rating, same with Dieng.

Am I the only one noticing that the Sixers socks have been a off blue color for almost a month now. Doesn't match the uniforms it bothers me

Do you really think that they watched him play last night and said lets give him a bump? These ratings updates have been ignored for so long that they probably will have little ups and downs that don't make sense until they figure out exactly how often they are going to update them.

U guys worrying about someoen being +1 or -2 who seriously gives a crap.
How about we talk about ACTUAL ISSUES

THE TIMBERWOLVES BIGS REBOUNDING RATINGS ARE LITERALLY BROKEN

I don't consider 42% volume shooting to be all that impressive, but it is an improvement. Either way, it only further makes my point when you consider the following #s:

Derrick Rose's first 19 games: 13.2 ppg, 38.6% FG

Derrick Rose's last 10 games: 17.1 ppg, 45.1% FG

Explain the logic to me, please. I'll admit to being a biased fan, but I'm only choosing Rose as my example because I keep up with him more than players on other teams. But you can't tell me that it makes sense for him to be dropping right now, because it just doesn't. Right?

Funny thing is Draymond's defensive rebounding and block ratings were two things I thought would be upgraded for sure. He's averaging over 10 rebounds a game since December and 9.5 on the season, I thought It would go up to high 80's. As for blocks he's averaging 1.4 on the season but only a 68 rating, which should be in the 70's at least I would think.

You're right man, that's rough. Apologies for my petty gripes.

Ding.

but I'm only choosing Rose as my example because I keep up with him more than players on other teams.

Then you are fully aware that Rose has had a garbage season and that he spent the bulk of it OVERrated. There is simply no way you can look at his season numbers and say he deserves an 80+ rating.

10.5 PER
44 TS% on 25 USG%
25.8 AST% (1.9 A/T ratio)
0.9 STL%

But you can't tell me that it makes sense for him to be dropping right now, because it just doesn't. Right?

Sure it does. If he were fairly rated prior to his recent stretch he would have been in the low 70s.
