NBA 2K11: Starting Five Roster Ratings

[pepp32]

Rondo and Rose are very close 85, to 87 is not much of a difference.

Rondo has advantages on the defensive end that Rose doesn't have. I know yall played that demo Rondo is uber aggressive on defense and got 2.3 steals per game last year. I mean the guy is 1st team all defense in the NBA last year and he was on the second team the year before last. He led the league in steals, 4th in assists as well so I say his passing ratings should be better than Rose. So his awareness is probably better Rebounding Rondo is a better rebounder not just defense but offense. Neither are great perimeter shooters Rose is slightly better than Rondo but he isn't great from the perimeter. Rose is slightly better than Rondo from the freethrow line but he isn't great.

Rose advantage to me is his athleticism so his dunk rating would be higher. So I see why Rondo get the edge.

I do unstand that arguement,......BUT....Rose outside game is light years ahead of Rondo. Not to mention that Rose carried the Bulls last season. Their was a span of about 6 or 7 games last year where he was flat out dominant against Western Conference teams. I 've never seen Rondo not once carry the Celtics When the rest of the team was flat. We have even mentioned that Rondo is playing with 3 Hall of Famers.

Nice way to back me up K-Dub. Thank you.

Jr.,

You have to remember how the overall ratings work. You cannot just say that Tim Duncan should only be 1-2 points higher than Dirk Nowitski. The overall rating factors in skills that are relative to that position. If you look at skills relative to the PF position, then the comparison between the two is not close.

If we are talking about their dominance or their importance to the league, then you would have a case. But you have to remember that the overall ratings do not work that way.

I understand how they work. But Tim has been declining for two years now. It hurts me to say that because that's my dude but it's true. I broke down already how Tim is better than dirk (btw it's spelled nowitzki), but I can see why some are upset by the rating disparity. That's all I'm saying.

[FamousAtticus]

Tim Duncan(90) rated higher than Dwight Howard(88)?!?!

[paptester]

KEVIN DURANT SHOULD BE A 95-96. CHRIS PAUL SHOULD BE 93. CHRIS BOSH SHOULD BE 89-90. JOAKIM NOAH SHOULD BE 75-77. DERRICK ROSE SHOULD BE 87-88. DWIGHT HOWARD SHOULD BE 90. TIM DUNCAN SHOULD BE 86-87 (ON DECLINE). DIRK SHOULD BE 86-87.

LMAO. Duncan > Rose

One's a PF, the other a PG. Relevance?

As far as Rondo and Rose, I'm alright with those ratings. Rondo gets more assists and steals per game by a wide margin. He gets about a half a rebound more per game. But he can't shoot to save his life. Meanwhile Rose is on another level as a scorer and already has one of the better mid range shots in the league. 2 point difference isn't that bad.

Ok, but they aren't playing at a Hall of Fame level anymore. And putting up 29, 18 and 13 in a game isn't carrying the team? Come on now. Rose and Rondo are completely different kinds of players. Rose is never gonna put up stats like that but no doubt he's a better scorer, but Rondo's got him pretty much everywhere else.

I was hoping to see the rest of my Rockets. Unfortunately, it's the same 5.

Re: NBA 2K11: Starting Five Roster Ratings

John Salmons a 74? Brandon Jennings a 75? Very underrated. No way is Luol Deng 3 points higher than Salmons. Who would you rather have on your team?

give me deng... when healthy. Salmons is a black hole for the basketball. Once he gets it no one sees it again.

When deng is healthy he's pretty good, needs to d up better though

Re: NBA 2K11: Starting Five Roster Ratings

I never really understood what is all these talk about players overall rating and their overall rating comparisons.

Overall rating means nothing anymore especially with the system that 2k has. Everyone has his pros and cons under different rating scales.

1 thing that has bugged me is how the heck Mbah a Moute starts as a PF when they have Ilyasova!

Re: NBA 2K11: Starting Five Roster Ratings

This whole thread is gibberish. You can't even debate ratings based on overall, because specific stats boost the overall more than others. Just stop. Curse you, Steve! STTTEEEEEVVVVEEE!
