Re: NBA 2K12 Player Ratings Revealed (Most of Them)

GRIFFIN so high (85) and TYREKE only 80?!?!?! seriously???

Re: NBA 2K12 Player Ratings Revealed (Most of Them)

LOL....***dy Gay (rated 86) is better than Dirk( rated 85) definitely an error. I like Rudy but he should not even be rated higher than Zach Randolph. Rudy should about an 80 at best.

Dude you make 0 sense comparing overalls of players that don't even play the same position.

Also .. when you argue the ratings use the number to argue who's a better all-around player. That's different from who's a better overall player. The ratings reflect all-around skill. If you are a specialist .. and Dirk is an offensive mid range specialist --- you ratings will likely be lower than someone else who is not as good as you in the mid range but is more athletic overall all over the court. Overall basketball athletes ... Lebron and Wade ARE kinda up there. But they are generalists tho.

But skill wise ? Mastering a certain specialty -- ie: Deadly mid-range (Kobe, Dirk, Durant, Melo) .. or Deadly 3 (Allen, Korver, etc) - those with this talent will be rated less than overall basketball athletes.

So use the ratings to argue .. Who is the better overall athlete? Your points will hit a little closer to home from that perspective.

gallo and ricky 67? what?

[Stickz24]

And that's why I can see why Rudy Gay is rated higher than Dirk ... but with the team around him -- Dirk doesn't need to do the things Rudy has to. In that regard .. Dirk might as well be a 99 .. because he'll be a 99 for what you need to use him ... that deadly mid range.

Remember that the phrase .. jack of all trades .. master of none isn't necessarily a good thing in most cases. But again, look at the ratings from a "jack of all trades" perspectives and it'll make more sense.

I'll give 2k good call on that one. Small Forwards are the most likely players to have an all around game .. makes sense that the small forward with the most all around game is rated highest. Powers and Centers are less likely to have an all aorund game - they dont need it. Makes sense they'd be typically lower rated but more directly powerful and impactful to the game. Dunk 99, Low Post 97, Rebounds 99 .. Jumpshot 50 Dribble 25 (Rated 74) versus a small foward at Dunk 85, low post 80, Rebounds 80, jumpshot 80, dribble 80 (rated 81) ... (and that;s just simple average .. no weights included).

But clearly that Center might be more of a problem than that small forward if he has the right team around him. Ahhhhh - You get it. It's not like y'all will say .. Oh that makes sense ... let's stop debating now.

But there it is tho - least its there for you to consider.

[1WEiRDguy]

People still care about ratings of a shipped game in a day and age where they can be adjusted on the fly via tuner sets and game updates?? hmmm...no wonder gaming isnt what it used to be...

[groovycrazyjoe]

Re: Players' ratings are...off???

Raptors whole starting lineup is under 70.

Yup.....it's gonna be one of these years online this season. Although I do think Derozan & Bargnani should've been able to crack atleast a 70 after last season.

[bangtite01]

Must be because of how dominant he was in the Finals... Wait no, that was the guy they gave an 85...

2K shares ESPN's bromance for Lebron, this isn't news.

Ive been saying that for years...............the bromance between ESPN and Lebron is on exponental levels...in the coverage,,,hype,,,media attention.............now 2k wants to get into a bromance triangle is sickening.......everyone knows Lebron cant shoot consistent jumpers so that rating should be a B at best......and his clutch factor should be an D at best.......i would rate them lebron at 96... wade at 95 and kobe at 94.

Re: NBA 2K12 Player Ratings Revealed (Most of Them)

So Wilson Chandler and JR Smith are in the game? Even though they signed in China?

Niceeeee.

Re: NBA 2K12 Player Ratings Revealed (Most of Them)

I like Lebron but after how he played in the Finals, I don't think he should have got bumped up to a 98, they guy was getting shut down in the 4th quarter.

Re: NBA 2K12 Player Ratings Revealed (Most of Them)

WTF Dirk a 85 2k thats messed up at least a 88-90 he put on a show in the season and playoffs

Look little kids your overall rating is a combine of attributes SMH not jus shooting and dunking LISTEN dirk, i bet plays like a unstopable man on offense... My point is overall consist of ball handling, speed, vertical (jumping), def awr, etc all of these attributes are factors when you talking about overall's and Dirk is below avg. and some of these Categories

Mr. Choke should be 94, Rose 93, Kobe and Wade 95?

Kobe should be rated lower for being swept by the Mavericks then if that's the case.
