New Rating 2k16 & Beyond.

[supaswagga22]

After reading the blog on "MY LEAGUE" and seeing that they tried to address one of the biggest flaws in the mode with progression & regression w/ a slider a slider to help with the points where their peaks start. But what I've been wanting to see is players having 2 potential ratings, one for offense & one for defense..

For years i've always been bothered by the fact that players just progress.. & thats it.. they dont take into consideration the type of player they are or anything.. things like simming 3 years and John Wall having 90's ratings for 3 point shooting, or Carmelo waking up at 35 and deciding to avg 1.8 blocks per.. it can get quite ridiculous at times..

Re: New Rating 2k16 & Beyond.

I don't think that there is one single way to tackle progression that will satisfy us all. What I have always wanted was something simple like each attribute having a potential rating. I think College Hoops 2k8 had this...Say a player comes into the league and he's a poor shooter but great athlete (physical attributes should remain static and decline only with age or injury). Well, his mid range shot is a 65 and potential may only be a B-. He will never be a lights out shooter, or even good at all. Things like badges (work ethic, all time great) and coaching could dictate whether he reaches his potential in that rating. Each attribute could work like that. I think we'd get more variance in players and style.

It would also make "potential" mean something. Say a player (Senior) comes into the league pretty solid out the box. Not great, but solid. But his potential in most of his attributes is already capped. There's minimal room for growth. But he can contribute on your team right away. Then you have another kid (Freshman) with insane potential but a lower overall. He may be great, but he will need a few years and a lot of work and training. Even then, he may not reach his ceiling and wash out the league. Or he may turn into LeBron, or he may toil around the league for a few years until he finds the right situation (coaching, playing time), provided he's no too old and blossom. I love stuff like that.

Thats alot of what i was getting at.. everybody just progresses into an all around player.. and thats not how things work.

Westbrook was also highly rated in the 90s last year, it could be him.

Isaiah Thomas - 81 OVR
Avery Bradley - 77 OVR
Evan Turner - 74 OVR
Jared Sullinger - 77 OVR
Tyler Zeller - 76 OVR
David Lee - 76 OVR
Lebron James - 94 OVR

Kristaps Porzingis - 77 OVR

Ratings that were revealed from today's blog

Re: New Rating 2k16 & Beyond.

Surprised with a 77 for Porzingis. Expect Towns, Russell and Okafor to be very high

lebron should be a 98 but whatever

I agree with your 5 and could see the 6th being Westbrook.

I doubt lebron is just a 94 like that screenshot. I think people are jumping the gun on that, who knows how many seasons in that was taken. Could be like 3 or more seasons into the myleague and he had regressed by then.

I really like your idea separating the offensive and defensive potential. It would help keep players playing to their real life strengths and not having everyone always develop into a complete all around player as they progress. I agree that in the real nba the average player has weaknesses that usually never become strengths for them as they improve.

i would hope so he is the BEST player in the NBA

Ya exactly, if he starts at 94, then that means that the other 5 90+ rated players would all have to be between 90-93, and the gap should be bigger then that. I think it will be. Same with that Porzingis rating of 77 that some people are talking about, it's probably a few years into the future. I don't think any of the ratings that we've seen in the screenshots are the out of the box current ones.

Re: New Rating 2k16 & Beyond.

Lebron's 94 rating is his starting rating. You can see david lee and sullinger have expiring contracts of their current salary this year. His 3pt rating won't be a 85 this year so that could explain his rating drop among other things.
