Top 10 Players in NBA 2K18

[jeebs9]

I never like jumping over overall ratings. But why Harden rated high than Westbrook? Didn't Westbrook win MVP. 2k had him as a "One of a Kind Player"

Harden's defensive ratings are prolly too high, again.

Like what would OVRs be for a guy with maxed out offense and minium defense, vs a guy with the exact opposite. I'm not necessarily disagreeing with the rankings, I think they are accurate, I'd just like more clarity. Which I guess I'll get within the weeks.

Totally agree. That's why I questioned the Harden over Russell. I'd love to see the ratings for each. Russ did something I never thought was possible.

I just haven't seen him play enough to know. I remember watching him in one game last season, could have been during the playoffs, and I came away thinking "if he could get a consistent jumpshot he could potentially be the best player in the league." I simply don't know how well he plays on a game to game basis. Didn't realize he reached top 10 player in the league status.

Aren't there different overall formulas based on the "player type", so for example, for a shooter like Korver, his defense doesn't weigh him down as much as it might for others, while a player like Tony Allen's shooting doesn't weigh him down as much since he's a defender type? I know this was the case in one of the prior 2K games at least (I wanna say like 2K15 maybe).

Anything is possible if your whole teams tries hard enough to make it happen.

As far as I know it's currently position based rather than play style based. For example low ball handling won't affect the overall of a center as much as it would a point guard.
