Rondo is an elite rebounder (or was) for a point guard, but there is a formula in place to quantify his rebounding ability. No such formula exists for speed, quickness, offensive/defensive IQ, ball handling so they are all left up to the opinion of the roster editor. from Spurs Nation/Bills Backer HQ

I guess I can kind of see your point on that. There's no definite formula of rating something like ball handling. But at the same time, can you honestly say that KD's ball handling is on the same level as someone like Kyrie or CP3 or Steph?

Hayward will get a boost once he makes the all star team this year, can't really complain about it now. These ratings looks correct.

Sure KD's ball handling isn't on those guys' level, but it's in "average good guard" territory, which is insane for a 6-11 player. The OVR formula should recognize that, because that is game changing.

If you understood what impacts an overall rating and how players were rated at the end of 2K15 compared to ratings that have been announced so far, you would know what that means.

I completely understand which is why I am asking why people are saying,
"So and so should be one point lower/higher." LIke that is such an ambiguous statement

In my mind since I do ratings/rosters based on advanced stats and I see how the ratings are lining up compared to last years rating system, I'm thinking of a lot of factors when I say that but yeah, it can sound ambiguous if the reasoning is not given. For those who don't really understand the ratings system to say this guy should be at most 3 points higher/lower than that guy, etc. it really is ambiguous and completely arbitrary.

Mike Stauffer is drunk? Iguodala 77?
Iguo above 80 in all the known worlds...
Also the value of Gallinari is completely wrong... Gallo deserves at least 79-80.

C'mon Mike...

I know injuries playedca major part with these ratings Durant should be higher so should paul George
