Disagree. After the big three, the players on the Heat roster are extremely limited. They are effective in their roles, but really offer little else outside of them.Comment

My New Jersey Nets player ratings:
Deron Williams 95 (best PG in the game today!)
Brook Lopez 81 (just can't rebound, arguably 2nd best Center in the NBA)
Kris Humphries 79 (going to be an 85 if season started)
Anthony Morrow 66 (Morrow is a scoring machine)
Travis Outlaw 62 (Absolutely terrible, became a bench player)
Sasha Vujacic 67 (He was rated correctly)
Jordan Farmar 67 (Very good backup, he has a ring!)
Everything else looked correct, but those need correcting!
Brook Lopez can't rebound and isn't the best defensive player either. He's kind of like the Bizarro Andrew Bogut. If you combined both of them you'd have a beast. But promising player who should be better with Williams this season.
Humphries did not get dramatcially better, he just got smarter and streamlined his game.
Morrow is a shooting machine, not a scoring machine.
The rest are, in fact, terrible.Comment

Rondo is an excellent passer and defender. But he can also be a liability on offense with his lack of range. It keeps him from being truly elite.Comment

Re: NBA 2K12 Player Ratings Revealed, Including All Free Agents
Anyone know how rebound ratings are calculated?
I am trying to understand why a guy like Al Jefferson who is a PF playing center averaged almost 10 rebound a game last season and still can't get his rebound ratings updated.
Marc Gasol plays the center position. Dude averaged 7 rebounds per game last season. 11.2 in the playoffs. His overall rebound rating is 93.
Lets look at another center Tyson Chandler. He averaged 9.4 rbs during the season, 9.2 during the playoffs. His overall rebound rating is 93.
Now lets look at Jefferson. He averaged 9.7 as a center last season. His overall rebound rating in 2k12 is 82, down from 83 in 2k11.
So, does anyone know how they come up with this BS? Is there a way to contact whoever does the ratings on twitter? I'm really curious.
Lets compare Jefferson to a PF i.e. Carlos Boozer. Even with his reduced ratings his overall 2k12 rebound rating isLast edited by KB2009Champ; 09-28-2011, 02:49 PM.Comment

Re: NBA 2K12 Player Ratings Revealed, Including All Free Agents
No, there doesn't need to be more balance. If anything there needs to be a distinct gap between the elite and the non-elite players. Why on earth should anyone on the Heat be rated above what they currently are? They are a bunch of role players and journeymen. Not sure what you want out of that situation.Comment

Re: NBA 2K12 Player Ratings Revealed, Including All Free Agents
KB2009Champ, I think it's because of his Offensive Rebounding Rate, Defensive Rebounding Rate, and Total Rebounding Rate which are all average for Centers (hits numbers are pretty much in the middle).Comment

Re: NBA 2K12 Player Ratings Revealed, Including All Free Agents
If you watched the finals from an unbiased standpoint you would see he did much more than that...sure he didn't command the offense, that's why he's not rated in the 80's. But he definitely drove, got to the line, and finished inside as well. Also, he is a terrific and underrated defender. Those things combine for him to be somewhere between a 73-74.Comment

Re: NBA 2K12 Player Ratings Revealed, Including All Free Agents
Over last season Chandler average 2.8 off reb, 6.6 def rebound.
Jefferson averaged 2.9 off reb, 6.8 def rebound.
Why does one have a 9.3 rebound rating while the other has a 8.2 rating?
Still doesn't make sense. I'm just saying, where is the consistency? And don't blame it on the playoffs because Chandler's rebounding ratings were higher than Al's in 2k11.Comment

If they are average then so are Tyson Chandler's. Al actually had better rebounding numbers.
Over last season Chandler average 2.8 off reb, 6.6 def rebound.
Jefferson averaged 2.9 off reb, 6.8 def rebound.
Why does one have a 9.3 rebound rating while the other has a 8.2 rating?

Re: NBA 2K12 Player Ratings Revealed, Including All Free Agents
On your idea that Brook Lopez is the 2nd best center in the game...
Off the top of my head, Dwight Howard, Joakim Noah, and Andrew Bynum come to mind. Orlando wanted Bynum in exchange for the most dominant C in the game, and Noah would have to go if the Bulls wanted Howard. That says something.
On your "idea" that Deron Williams is the best PG in the NBA...
Chris Paul is easily the best. Why, you may ask?- Chris Paul is the ONLY - ONLY - player in NBA history to average at least 20 points and 10 assists in the postseason (over the entirety of his career).
- CP3 holds the record for consecutive games with a steal at 108.
- CP3 is 5th player to ever lead the league in assists and steals, and the only player to lead the league in assists and steals in consecutive seasons. (07/08 - 08/09). Also led the league in assists and steals three times (also in 10/11), also a record.
If you wanna go strictly by stats, then CP3 averages more points, assists, rebounds, and steals than Deron Williams, both in the regular season and postseason. He also has a higher FG% than Deron Williams in both.
Chris Paul may not be as athletic as Derrick Rose (He is almost just as quick, though Rose is quicker) or focus on offense as much as Deron Williams, but he is the best complete (Offense and Defense) PG in the league PERIOD.
Someone can legitimately argue Derrick Rose based on individual talent and dominance, and I would concede to that argument. Derrick Rose is the best OFFENSIVE PG, but his defense is average at best and he needs to work on shot selection. (This is coming from a Bulls fan and Chicago resident, so I see every game).
CP3 is the best complete PG. He's more comparable to Rondo in the sense that he's a great (although seemingly underrated) defender and he impacts his entire team and makes them better. Trevor Ariza (Watch his highlights against the Lakers for evidence) and Marco Belinelli are prime examples of this.
Williams is good, no doubt, but he's not a great defender or playmaker IMO. Granted, I don't see him much, but while he was in Utah they ran an offense that gave advantages to the post players so he never really had to create in my eyes, or at least as much as CP3. Also, Williams clearly had more talent around him, even in NJ, than CP3 currently does.
My PG rankings (Top 5):
1. CP3
2a. Derrick Rose
2b. Deron Williams
4. Russell Westbrook
5. Rajon Rondo - he would be number 3 if he had a better jumpshot, at least a mid-range.
I think the OVERALL ratings reflect this perfectly. So long as they play as the real-life counterparts, that is.
