    The Leap: NBA 2K9

    Richard Chavez is back this week with a look at five players who will be making big jumps ratings wise for NBA 2k9. Be sure to check out who he thinks will be making the leap.

    "When NBA 2K9 is released this upcoming fall, there will most definitely be debates ranging from Boston fans whining about Glen Davis’ rating to Lakers haters disputing Los Angeles’ almost assuredly high team rating. Nobody knows the method that 2K Sports uses to rate players, but we can safely conclude these five guys certainly won’t be complaining."

            No way Gay or Aldridge get rated that highly! Come on... you guys play the games, look at the players rated 89 or higher, they are much better than what Gay or Aldridge project to be next season.

            My 2K9 sleeper is Loouuuuuu Williams for the Sixers... his overall rating won't be that high, but if they give him the bumps in the categories he deserves, he'll be nasty.

              2. LaMarcus Aldridge
              Portland Trailblazers
              Original NBA 2K8 rating: 75
              Projected NBA 2K9 rating: 89
              4. Rudy Gay
              Memphis Grizzlies
              Original NBA 2K8 rating: 82
              Projected NBA 2K8 rating: 89
              I pray to god this does NOT happen. Neither one of those ratings are warranted
              Concrete evidence/videos please

                Hello everyone! This request is a little off the tangent here... but, could one of the OS employees confirm if 2k is going to dedicate a team to the development of NBA 2k9 for the PS3???

                    ratings are way to high to begin with in the first place
                    Kenny: Ok Vic, I'm ready for some girl on girl action.
                    Vic: No Kenny, that's girl versus girl.
                    Kenny: What's the difference?
                    Vic: Well, in one, one girl wins. In the other....
                    Kenny: Everyone wins?!?!

                      Yeah, Aldridge should be an 81-83.. he's not Al Jefferson level... he's definitely a solid guy and might be beastly next season, but he doesn't have enough post game or defensive presence to get that high of a rating.

                      And yeah, Rudy Gay is nice offensively, but unless the overall doesn't give defense much weight, there's no way he's that high... he's a sieve on defense despite his physical gifts/size. I think he should be right where he was this year...

                          Re: The Leap: NBA 2K9

                          how can Aldridge be rated higher than Roy?

                          I kinda agree with Gay's rating... Chris Paul's is agreeable too, but Hedo's rating is ********. 84 at BEST... I would say 82 or 83 though... not 89!

                            Hedo is nasty. At least a 86-88.

                              alright i was lookin at his stats and stuff... I underrated him a bit... but I still wouldn't give him the rating he's about to get... I guess I'd go with 86.
