NBA 2K11: Starting Five Roster Ratings

Re: NBA 2K11: Starting Five Roster Ratings

Oh and if you think that KD is only 6'9...you should actually meet him. They even mentioned that he was almost 7 feet during the world championships.

They meaning his teammates and the commentators...

Re: NBA 2K11: Starting Five Roster Ratings

i dont mind about one individuals overall rating but into relation to others.
duncan a 90 sounds to me like duncan in year 2004-06 and not 2010

I'm Sorry but LeBron and Wade are NOT on the same level as Kobe. AT ALL!

Re: NBA 2K11: Starting Five Roster Ratings

I didn't know that PF's were graded by these qualities...lol

He averages 8.5 rebounds for his career. Amare average 8.9...so does Gasol
Amare's an 86 and Gasol's an 89. None of the 3 defend or block shots well.

Oh and sorry...NBA doesn't have a stat/career category for strength...

Yes DropSeven,

You can't just look at career numbers. The past season will be considered much more than career. Also, 8.5 is not high as I mentioned before.

Certain qualities weigh a little more heavily when the game calculates overall rating. The categories I named are the main categories for power forward players. Dirk Nowitski's skill are not reflective of his overall rating, but he can shoot the hell out of the ball. If he cannot shoot in 2K then I will complains.

Strength is not a stat you are correct but we know that Dirk is lacking in that department. Not a "power" forward

Jr,

Playoff influence can be factored into certain ratings, but I don't think 2K is looking at playoff averages between Duncan and Dirk Nowitski do determine overall ratings. Those are two established star players, they know what those guys can do.

Rondo is different because he is still an up and coming talent, so looking at his success in the playoffs is a little more acceptable and necessary.

I think for those two guys, if one had a phenomenal playoff, it might give that guy the edge over the other. Neither has had a tremendous playoff run in a while though.

WOW!

KOBE
WADE
LEBRON

97s!!! This is when you know KOBE at 31 years of age and can still dominate the youngins! hAHAHA

There's two of the yougins though.

Ratings are just that - ratings. Until we actually play the finished product Oct. 5th, no one can really say for sure how these will play out. The demo is on Pro or whatever, So sliders etc may be the culprit at some things, but overall I think the ratings are fine since it looks like 2K made an effort to allow the real superstar players stand out from the other players. That's all... besides, by the 3rd day of release, someone on here will have an entire roster share available with "Ratings edits" that we can all download to our hearts content -

Re: NBA 2K11: Starting Five Roster Ratings

Why are people so surprised by CP3 being better then DWill? One thing is defense. Yea someone is going to say DWill plays good D too. But in CP3 case he makes a lot of steals on the defensive end. Deron doesn't....

Another factor is that CP3 is only 6'0. Remember "My Player" the small you were the more point you got?....just kidding about that..

But defense is what keeps them from being the same rating.

Many people underrate european players, including their respective NBA coaches...

Jr.,

I think at this point, both of those men are established players in the history of the NBA. I don't think a great playoff would do much to influence their ratings.

As I mentioned, if they were young and unestablished players maybe.

But don't look at Dirk Nowitski's rating as a way that 2K doesn't think he is good.

Wrong...I've actually met him a few times in HS and in College.

He is not a 7 footer...

edit: Also you ever seen him standing next to a 7 footer? When he stands next to LeBron. He is only slight (inch maybe) taller than him. Google some pics of Durant next to LeBron

[Steelo22]

As a Bulls fan my problem isn't with Rose's 85, it's with Noah's 73. I know I'm biased, but he's gotta be at least in the upper 70's in my opinion.

Really. Brewer's rating is low too. And why are they on Wall's nuts? 81 is rediculous

Agreed. Both are arguably Hall of Famers (Timmy should be a lock, Dirk is close in my opinion). But I do think that the disparity between Dirk and Timmy is a little too much this year. I said before, Timmy should be a little higher maybe a point or two.

Nowitzki 7.7 rpg 1.0 bpg 37.5 mpg
Stoudemire 8.9 rpg 1.0 bpg 34.6 mpg
Gasol 11.3 rpg 1.7 bpg 37.0 mpg
Duncan 10.1 rpg 1.5 bpg 31.3 mpg

Stats for the 2009-2010 regular season, which ratings for NBA 2k11 happen to heavily based on. Dirk is a horrible rebounder and a below average to bad defender, who excels on offense from the mid-post out. 83 is right where he should be.
