Right now, LeBron is playing at a 98 overall level... at one time, T-Mac was playing at a 98 overall level... Grant Hill was playing at a 98 overall level.... It is not like he is at 99 like Jordan. If anything, 2K should bring back the 100 overall rating and have Jordan be rated at 100, cause I think Charles Barkley should be 99 overall if he ever made it into the game. 98 is good for LeBron for now, but to get to 99 he has to accomplish what Jordan did. 98 isn't perfect, since it is not 99 - food for thought.

99 isn't perfect either. You guys put too much stock into overall ratings and forget that isn't the entire picture. 99 doesn't determine that player as being some god tier or the likes, it's how his individual attributes work together. Take a young Shaq/Prime Shaq for example. I can almost guarantee he'll be 93+ but will he have any handle? Can he spot up and shoot the three?Right now, LeBron is playing at a 98 overall level... at one time, T-Mac was playing at a 98 overall level... Grant Hill was playing at a 98 overall level....

What about his free-throws. I think you get what I'm saying here a player's overall doesn't dictate how good they are at individual things, they can be incredibly Aware (which is a big boost in overall) but barely able to hit a lay-up.
Take overalls with a grain of salt, there's too much "OMFG LEBRON IS 1 AWAY FROM JORDAN WTF BLASPHEMY!!!" in this thread without taking into account the overall factors.Comment

Arguing over OVR ratings is stupid. Lebron in relation to his actual skills should be the best rated player. Now what he is in real life as a total player is completely different. The clutch rating on 2k never affected the OVR anyway. Kobe is my fav player of all time but in reality he isnt the same player he was 2 seasons ago. Its not a bad thing to admit Dwade is slightly better now especially since there is a 5-6 year age gap...Comment

This is extremely sad. I thought 2K was all about accuracy, but it seems to me that they're all about being biased. There is no way that LeBron "don't wanna be the man on my own team" James can be a point away from Michael Jordan and 4!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! points ahead of KOBE!!! WADE aint even better than KOBE!!!!! The man was injured last year for cryin out loud. Dag!!!... Way to show some loyalty to a cover athlete.Comment

For all you people out there that think LeBron is better than Kobe you are confusing ATHLETICISM WITH SKILL! LeBron is way more athletic than Kobe but he is NO WHERE NEAR as skilled as Kobe. If 2K goin off of that then Clyde Drexler and Hakeem should be better than LeBron! Especially Dream All LeBron does is dunk try to shoot threes and choke! Stop it 2K stop it.......

Re: NBA 2K12 Developer Insight #7 - Creating a Legend - Kobe Rated 94, LeBron 98
look i don't rly care about kobe or lebron but guys, please stay objective.. kobe is a better shooter/scorer, has better fundamentals than lebron but lebron TODAY is just a better overall player, he is a better rebounder, passer, is quicker, he is may be even a better ball handler, let's not even talk about his athleticism (well i just did).. and most important he is 26 ! he is in his prime and will stay in it for like 4 more years.. accept it or not, kobe's prime is now behind him.For all you people out there that think LeBron is better than Kobe you are confusing ATHLETICISM WITH SKILL!

let's say nba teams IRL start next season with an fantasy draft, u really think LA will pick kobe if lebron (or wade or d12 or cp3 or dwill or drose or KD etc etc...) is/(are) available ?
answer : no.Comment
