NBA 2K13 Top 20 Players and Possible Player Ratings

[chris63]

He will play how Dirk plays in real life so whats the problem ? eatings are overrated (no pun lol) Whether lebron is rated 99 or 95 he's gonna play like lebron (if used correctly) so I don't get caught up in these ratings too much

I agree with you man. But still it shouldn't have to be like that. For example, in Association. The AI wouldn't recognize guys like Dirk for how they play but for their ratings, therefor skewing their trade values and etc. I just don't get why they don't just make ratings fully skill based and not altered by position and height. It's a minor thing, but don't you agree that seeing accurate ratings adds to the authenticity overall?

Now that I do agree with 100%

DO we get top 20 for legends? Not really interested in the Brons & Westbrooks.

Re: NBA 2K13 Top 20 Players and Possible Player Ratings

Why won't you all learn to compare players of the same position? Look at that and only that. PG rankings, SG rankings, etc. Not KD shouldn't be higher than a PF/C.

[rudeworld]

Since when is Kevin Durant a better passer than LeBron?

Bron's career avgs: 7.2 rebounds, 6.9 assists
KD: 6.8 rebounds, 2.8 assists

Last season:
KD: 8.0 reb, 3.5 assists, 3.8 turnovers

Bron: 7.9 reb. 6.2 assists, 3.4 turnovers

I mean, numbers don't always tell the full story, but it gives an idea of how certain players play. And there's no way in hell KD should be rated higher than LeBron...yet.

Remember.... KD is on a team where he is not the main ball handler and bruising rebounder so stats will NOT TELL THE FULL STORY AS YOU SAY..... Bron has been on teams with shooters all his life so his assist numbers will look better and he has also been on teams where he is required to do way more.... my bad EVERYTHING..... KD is a BETTER PLAYER

So KD is better because LeBron does more for his team? And LeBron is the main bruising rebounder on his team? KD isn't as effective putting the ball on the floor and LeBron exposed that in the finals. LeBron has had shooters because he is effective in the drive and kick lol while KD IS the shooter to Westbrooks drive and kick smh you seriously are on crack

A little bit off topic but worthy: I have seen more than a few post of you refuting people and let me give you a good will advice, restraint your passionate adjectives or you might not last long.

Kevin Durant isn't better than LeBron James. Hate LeBron until the end of earth but point blank period he is not better than LeBron. Durant has A LOT of growing to do as a player before he can be considered better than LeBron and quite frankly it's insulting to make such a statement which just shows blind hatred.

Re: NBA 2K13 Top 20 Players and Possible Player Ratings

Westbrook rating better than d.Williams smh

[Wad3County12]

Anyone who says Wade is overrated is saying this because of the playoffs. Wade had a bad playoffs for the most part and STILL averaged 22 ppg HURT and with another superstar and all star on his team. By himself he would've put up about 28-30 points like usuall. Talking about his age when he just turned 30 this year ?? After 2007 Wade has done a better job staying healthy for most of the season, now that he's gotten his knee taken care of you will see he's a top 3 player.

[deacon21206]

Actually the KD arguement isn't so far fetched. Lebron has to be the best rebounder on his team because, well no one grab boards. You forget Wade was doing the same thing before Bron came. In the Olympics KD was equal on the rebounding. You have to look at the need of the team for both players. KD doesn't need to play the PG. Bron does. KD doesn't have to rebound. Bron does. Lebron a better overall player at this point in his career. KD is a better winner at this point in his career than Lebron was. It boils down to who fits your team best.

P.S. Wade isn't better than Kobe even at this point he still isn't.

Re: NBA 2K13 Top 20 Players and Possible Player Ratings

Kobe a 93!?

And Westbrook higher than Rose, Williams AND Rondo!!?

EL OH EL!!!

I always get a good kick out of the ratings, but that is hilarious.

Re: NBA 2K13 Top 20 Players and Possible Player Ratings

Kevin Durant a better winner? He has two All Star caliber (not even in their prime) level players. You compare LeBron's cast at that same stage and you see he had no one of the caliber of Westbrook or Harden. It's not even an argument really. Kevin Durant arguably had the better team in the Finals.

Re: NBA 2K13 Top 20 Players and Possible Player Ratings

Yeah, because PER means everything right? The fact still remains that westbrook had a better season than Wade last season and KD definitely had a better season each of the last two seasons. Rose also had a better season his MVP year along with Dwight.

Westbrook played better right?

As for Durant, keep in mind that he plays more minuets and attempts more shots and that he was assisted on 48% of his FG and Wade assisted on 40. Not even gonna do the Rose comparison from his MVP season because its clear Wade played better than him. Look it up here
