Starting to think BED's has a major issue with Rose, every update he is downgraded.

that's because he sucks.

Does this guy have a problem with Rose? He's been balling lately, best this season this far, oh lets drop him to 77. I'm glad he raised Jimmy but wow, Rose is just being done DIRTY here.

Let's think about this here -- he's the same rating as Ed Davis and Jeremy Lamb...

As we have seen BEDs is watching the thread. Give Specific examples about what needs to be addressed with the Pacers & their players. I agree there is some stuff off. I have always found it better to give specific details when you feel a matter needs to be addressed.

A global look at mostly defensive ratings would be nice. Tony Allen's absurb 88 STL rating with 1.5 SPG compared to Monta Ellis's 77 rating with 1.8 SPG is a good starting point.

Perhaps George Hill's PSACC, BALL, PSIQ, and PSVIS could use a look due to his 1.5 TO/GM which was is/was the 3rd lowest among point guards.

The good news is they finally fixed Larry Nance Jr.'s dunk ratings. But I think they got rid of his dunk badge :/

Oh, okay.

Im 99.7% sure he can dunk, he really just doesn't choose to, after all of his knee/ankle injuries. Do you think you would try to jump 30+ inches into the air for a dunk after three major knee surgeries? Didn't think so.

1. What does that have to do with his dunk rating? It's like saying Kobe and Vince should still have 90 dunk.

2. Rose BEFORE his surgeries was nowhere near the dunker Westbrook/Wall/etc are.

Huh? Paul George broke his leg, and he still dunks. Besides, the rating is high enough where he can dunk on wide open fastbreaks, but low enough where he won't be coming down the lane and dunking in traffic.

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

It's beyond injuries and things like that when it comes to dunking after series of injuries. For example if Westbrook had 3 knee surgeries and got back into playing i think he would be same dunker as he is now because of his reckless mentality, on the other hand some players are more cautious after injuries because (i'm not saying they scared) they think they will sustain or in some cases be healthier if they play safer.

Unfortunately for the video game D. Rose, the dunk rating has to take a hit until he shows he can dunk again. From the few games I've seen, D. Rose is changing his game to become a "below the rim" point guard.

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

Alright...I found what I was looking for. I'm going to stop complaining about the number of fouls they give up versus how many they get, lol. Of course and according to the NBA, they refs already screwed up on 3 game changing fouls that should have been called this season. To echo Coach Vogel, it would be nice if the Pacers didn't show up on the NBA 2-Minute Report. I already knew they were a average to terrible rebounding team. I'm not tripping on the shooting attributes, because Beds basically has a firm grasp on that. The below link shows that Indiana is pretty much a Top 10 defensive team in quite a few categories.

https://www.teamrankings.com/nba/team/indiana-pacers/stats

Overall, Indiana should be a strong turnover creating team (while giving up a lot of turnovers unfortunately) who makes it difficult for teams to get a clean open look. They score off their fastbreaks, and their defense concepts mirrors the Lebron-led Miami Heat since moving from the rim-protection/player funneling defensive scheme they had before they traded Hibbert.

I agree with your 1st point about vince and kobe, but I strongly disagree and would reconsider your 2nd point.

Rose before injuries was one hell of a dunker and if i might add much better crossover than Westbrook's

Westbrook doesn't even need a crossover lol. His god given athletic ability and size for the PG position is unmatched in today's game. More often than not he just bull dozes his way or blows by everyone. After a made basket, he creates his own semi fast break and in a blink of an eye he is finishing at the other end lol.

D Rose was too much of a beast and fun to watch before the injuries. Now he has slowed his game down, and it looks like when he wants to blow by someone he hesitates and just does a lot of hesi' dribbles before he initiates his signature jump hook shot.

He is still just as acrobatic as before, but the last few games I watched he didn't finish the layup like he didn't have enough hangtime. I'm sure he can get back to at least those crazy acrobatic layups, but as far as dunking like he used to we won't see that until he is mentally more confident.
