First Ratings Update

Re: First Ratings Update

It was probably 2K16. They had a special type of card in MyTeam called Dynamic Ratings. Those cards had the same stats as the cards in the official roster, so whenever the official roster was updated those cards ratings were updated as well.

That year was underappreciated. The next year it was gone. And we could see a player's development. I think I cried lol

Re: First Ratings Update

So this year they are not even giving us the full list? 165 players were updated yet they only tell us about 8

Re: First Ratings Update

I see RJ Barrett went up from a 78 overall rating to a 79 overall rating. Where can I go to see the full list of players that were updated?

the article says "2K will provide more detailed information on the latest roster update sometime tomorrow, so we’ll update this post at that time."

Re: First Ratings Update

There's a huge difference between handling a ball and dribbling the ball. Some bigs (Siakam, Bam, Olynyk, Pau and Marc) are decent with the ball in their hands. They're not gonna break your ankles or anything like that, but they can control the ball enough to do some crafty things. I'm not sure of how that would translate into the different rating categories in 2K. For these types of players, which ratings do you think should impact their ability to not necessarily be a dribble God, but to be able to be crafty with the ball?

This is pretty easy to measure as any big with handle is going to post higher PNR and Iso rates

PF/C with 10+ PnR poss so far this year
18% Jayson Tatum
14% Pascal Siakam
13% Danilo Gallinari
12% Rudy Gay
8% Giannis Antetokounmpo

PF/C with 10+ Iso poss so far this year
16% Giannis Antetokounmpo
13% Jayson Tatum
12% Eric Paschall
11% Pascal Siakam
11% Tristan Thompson
10% Montrezl Harrell
9% Danilo Gallinari
8% Nikola Jokic
5% Anthony Davis

Post Moves (PostOff) is essentially ball handle for the post.

Re: First Ratings Update

Worth pointing out this year. Badge updates added two points to Trae Young's OVR.

His +4 is half badges, half attributes.

Re: First Ratings Update

Players heights were updated on 2kratings but not the overall ratings, Trae Young still 85 OVR.

RATING ANALYSIS

Julius Randle
12.2 PER, 48 TS%, 24 USG%
9 ORB% / 22 DRB%
22 AST%
1.1 STL% / 0.7 BLK%
Shooting like a dog. 17% from 3pt (-17), 60% from FT (-13). Porzingis was traded for this.

Mitchell Robinson
31.2 PER, 74 TS%, 18 USG%
17 ORB% (leads league) / 19 DRB%
2.0 STL%, 10.2 BLK%
Fizdale wanted to bring him off the bench. LOL fire him please (also he is dumb underrated by 2K)

R.J. Barrett
13.5 PER, 48 TS%, 25 USG%
4 ORB% / 14 DRB%
18 AST%
Outside shooting (37 3pt%) better than expected but 49 FT% (!!!) is markedly worse than his 67% in NCAA, killing his production.

Marcus Morris
16.2 PER, 59 TS%, 22 USG%
2.0 STL% / 2.5 BLK%
"Team-first Melo" is hitting 48% of his threes

Dennis Smith Jr
NEGATIVE 11.7 PER, 13 TS%, 23 USG%
Obviously its only 26 minutes but this is also a carry-over from preseason. Smith went from starter to 3rd string. Knicks player development FTW

Wayne Ellington
4.0 PER, 41 TS%, 16 USG%
It's obviously still early, Ellington is too good a shooter to hit only 26% of threes all year.

Ignas Brazdeikas
2.2 PER (8 mins)

Ivan Rabb (Career / 85 gms, 1237 mins)
16.3 PER, 59 TS%, 17 USG%
11 ORB% / 23 DRB%
Hasn't played yet but rating change was more or less a correction, he'll play more after the deadline.

BADGE UPDATES

Randle
Moving Truck: BRONZE (from Silver)
Box: REMOVED (from Bronze)

Robinson
Chasedown Artist: GOLD (from None)
Rim Protector: SILVER (from Bronze)

I thought the team said that was a mistake?

That was it! Well, they need to bring back that feature then. I missed that. Made life so much easier.

Re: First Ratings Update

And that's exactly what I'm talking about. When Giannis got a dribble boost. It took a damn long time. Because clearly putting into the high 70's would cause huge problems for balancing the game. I know Siakam is one of the fastest player in the league. You can find a countless post of people asking for his speed to get boosted. Which was huge last year. His speed with ball rating needs a boost. But his ball handle does not. At most 72-75. All the videos I've seen of him. He's just faster than whoever covering him and then blowing by with simple dribble moves.



The first changes usually go under the radar for the public. It's during the season when big changes to the overall ratings do they bring public attention to the roster. This is an OS favorite of mine. Rating changes and no one cares. Come Dec-Jan. That's when everyone starts coming out of the woodworks about overall ratings. It happens every year lol

He just needs to be able to dribble period. His ball handling as it is now is too low to do anything with. As soon as you get bumped you pick up your dribble like he's every other big man in the game. The reason he's so good for the Raptors is because he's a mismatch for the majority of 4's because he's too fast and he's too big for the majority of 3's. Thats why its only guys like Giannis, Green, Embiid who are tall, strong and quick that can effectively guard him (and he still cooked Draymond in the Finals). You still can't play like Siakam does irl in game. All I've been able to replicate are his post ups against smaller guys and hitting him in transition.

Re: First Ratings Update

Nice. If anyone is interested in exploring some different rosters, I would suggest you check out my spreadsheet below with edited player shots. I will be doing ratings very very shortly and probably even tendencies too.

Re: First Ratings Update

Have they done anything with accessories and shorts lengths for PNO?

It seems that in MyLeague files and offline Play Now these things translate, or at least can be edited, but for PNO I see Lebron with baggy shorts all the time and most players still wearing white or black shoes.

Would love to see players like Devin Booker look like they do on court in PNO - playing the AI this year is really boring.
