NBA 2K11: Starting Five Roster Ratings

Sorry that haha sounded condescending once I went back and read my post and again, I can't find the button to edit it so let me qualify. I just mean that you can always argue that a player might not "end up" as very good, or very bad, but you just can't know. You can look at where they are now though, and where they have been, in relation to everyone else. It's not like they're both rookies and last year might be a fluke. They're both amazing players. And with out question, if those guys continue to be those same players, at the end of the day they'll be in the upper echelon (though maybe not the highest) of the basketball pantheon.Comment

Re: NBA 2K11: Starting Five Roster Ratings
Fng,
I think that overall ratings are predetermined for the guys at the top. I do believe that. I believe that 2K Sports went into the player ratings distribution with the knowledge that they want LeBron, Wade, and Kobe to all have 97 ratings out of the box.
I think that is wrong. I think doing it that method leads to inaccuracies because 2K Sports has to have certain players reach a certain overall grade no matter what.
I am sure that Mike Jordan will be a 99 rated player because of this. Since he is the best player ever, he has to be a 99 rated overalls or people would have a problem with 2K Sports.Comment

Re: NBA 2K11: Starting Five Roster Ratings
Turner is a SG and is an all around player my dude. Im a Jennings fan but he still has alot to prove. He is very streaky. And CP3 will prove once again who is the dominate point guard. people forget he was 2nd in MVP voting a couple yrs backThe Buzz is Back in the Queen City. Cho........I have no idea what you are going to do in this draft man.Comment

Re: NBA 2K11: Starting Five Roster Ratings
Why don't people understand this? First off Deron Williams doesn't get as many steals as CP3 does. I'm not saying its better defense or not. But this has to be shown in the game. Just like Rondo gets those pesky steals. CP3 gets them too.
"Always remember as long as the player plays like the player in really life."
Secondly you have to think about CP3 size. He is only 6'0. While Deron is 6-3. Remember My player the smaller the player the more skill points he gets.....LMAO JK about that oneHands Down....Man Down - 2k9 memories

OK I understand the danger of that. But let's look at everything you've said there. Take Wade James and Bryant. Are those three not the best three players in the game? (Sans Durant, which is a whole 'nother can of worms, which quite frankly can be quickly summed up as, he doesn't create for his teamates the way the other three CAN, and isn't nearly the defender the others are YET). They aren't 99s because they aren't Jordan. Would you disagree that Jordan in his prime was the closest example we've ever had to a perfect player?
The reality is that, when you have a cap, when you have a top, when you have a max, you have to start there and work backwards. So, if 99 is the best you can possibly be at your given position, where would guys like James Wade and Bryant fit? Well, pretty darn close to the top. When you PREDETERMINE that 99 is your cap, you are absolutely confined to starting the bar somewhere. If you predetermine the top, you have to pick some spot to start at. They decided to say the three best players in the game are 97s. They have room for improvement, but not much, and there aren't any other players currently playing that are as good as them. That seems reasonable to me. I mean, say this era of basketball had less talent than other eras, and this was generally acknowledged. Let's say Jordan is still going to be in this game and is still going to be an essentially perfect shooting guard. He's the cap of 99. Well say the best play currently in the league is no where near as good Jordan. And I mean no where. Let's say Brandon Roy is the best player in the league. IF Jordan is in this game and he's a 99, with no room for improvement, then Brandon Roy still needs to be 87-88 ish. This is all about relativity. If Jordan wasn't in the game and Roy was the best player in the world, you could make him a 95 all of a sudden. I mean, is this rambling too much? Because they arbitrarily decide 99 is the best anyone can be in their rating system, they have no choice but to arbitrarily start somewhere within that limit. But once they do, it only matters that people are where they are RELATIVE to the initial starting point.
That was a novel, sorry. If anything, I'd like to see the ratings look more like this.
Jordan SG 99
James SF 97
Kobe SG 95
Wade SG 95
Durrant SF 94
But I guess all I'm saying is at least the starting point is predetermined, and there's simply no way around it because the range of a players rating is ALSO predetermined. There's just no way around it.
Also, this is in the context of position. Let's not make any mistake about it. If you put Kobe at center, he's not a 97 any more. Dude is like a 50.
So it's a balancing act between position and overall. Dwight Howard might be the best center in the game right now. And no center should currently playing should be higher than him. But that doesn't mean he should be a 97, because he's nowhere near the player James is.
God I hope what I just typed made some sort of sense.Comment
