NBA 2K13 Player Ratings - Kobe - 93, Melo - 92, Rondo - 90

I think some of the ratings are treated as "filler" as far as impact on the game anyway. Anybody who plays MyPlayer knows how much Awareness ratings impact your overall, but as far as gameplay goes you only notice very subtle changes...at least playing against other users.

well, O awareness is a very big deal in this game. Its the reason why poor 3 point shooters like Wade can hit 3's consistently.

He could have a 3 point rating in the low 60's but as long as his offensive awareness is super high, he'll make them at a decent clip. I've noticed this since 2k6.

no ratings are going be perfect he had a 94 last year a 93 now deal with it its not that serious then what should Kobe have a 85 then like come on if you going basketball wise Blake Griffin deserve no were a 87 all he literally does is dunk no moves in his arsenal stop being bias Kobe deserve what he has the only months Kobe shot under 45% was January and February other than that it was 45% and up and over 50% in March and averaged 30 5 and 4 in the playoffs which is good numbers so stop the whining please

agreed, they tend to overate defensive ratings just to keep overalls high

So should O awareness be lowered in order to maintain balance. Even with guys like Kobe, lebron, and Durant

I'm interested to see Joe Johnson's rating...he was way too prolific in 2k12. I won a title riding him all season, scored 30+ all 5 games of the finals...granted the CPU used Nate Robinson to defend him for 20+ minutes of every game.

On another note. oh em gee, kobe is rated too high! the only people who care are ones who play random 5 on 5 online games with strangers, who quit if they don't get to play a superstar player. Put away your wannabe street dialect please, because the gameplay improvements plus what we already have in the game should be good enough for anyone to buy. Granted I didn't start playing until 2K11 and so as a mainly madden/ncaa football sports game player for many years I appreciate the detail 2K puts into their basketball game more than the average person.

I watch plenty of ball and synergy stats back up he shouldnt be a 90 at all. His rating actually went up from last year when last year was even worse year than before.

How many of the people here who are complaining understand and know exactly how the ratings go together to get to a certain number? Do you all thoroughly understand the formula or are you just complaining this one number being too high without understanding the mechanics behind it?
