More NBA 2K13 Player Ratings Revealed - Pippen, Love, Davis, Ellis, Waiters and Iggy

[Nokstar]

A 92 Pippen was easily just as good as a 2012 Kobe, and much much MUCH better than a 2012 Carmelo.

Really? I think you need a refresher on pippens CAREER... www.nba.com ...check his stats over his career....tell me if those are superstar stats.

Pippen wasnt a top 5 player in his era..he wasnt at top 10 player in his era...

Pippen was good but he was never a superstar..i watched his whole career...people let nostalgia overrate players of yester year.

Pippen was nowhere near the scorer melo or kobe is...but he was a better defender than both. Better passer as well...but he was NOWHERE near the scorer bron/durant/melo are. His career average is like 17 or 18 points per game if im not mistaken..probably lower than that.

16 points...6 rebounds...5 assists...and he should be a 92? Would that ride for a player in todays league at 92 rating?

Since when are the ratings decided by ppg , rpg and assists?

Are you kidding me? You think they blindly just make uo a rating without taking their season stats into consideration? Cmon man.

Why do you think kobe rating went down and melos went up?

That's too high for Love, no post game, no mid range, average athleticism and defender... He shouldn't be rated too much higher than Aldridge or Dirk

Are you serious? So you think he averaged over 20+ points two seasons in a row with what? Just a 3 ball? He is above average all over the floor

Best technical rebounder in the game (D12 still has him beat, but only due to his size advantage), best non-specialist 3PT shooting big man (sorry, Dirk), massively underrated clutch factor, averaged 4.1 ORBs last year to go along with 26 PPG and 13.3 RPG, and to finish my pillage of his player card on ESPN, he had a pretty damn good PER over 25 for last season.

Players we know (so far) rated 90+ with lower PERs: Carmelo Anthony & Kobe Bryant (<22), Rajon Rondo (<18), and even Scottie Pippen was under 22 PER in 1992 but we all just found out he's rated a 92 in the game.

Haters gonna hate. Love deserves his 89 and no less.

Makes sense.

Quick and honest question then, what does Kevin Love have over LaMarcus Aldridge to justify a probably 7 point rating difference?

Is Love a better defender? A more polished offensive player? Faster? More athletic? better post player?

I can only count 3pt shoot, ft and rebounding/hustle

89 for Love is way too much...

A 92 rating for Pippen is a little too high. I was thinking high 80's. Kevin Love's rating seems about right and his 3's rating should be high. Anthony Davis being an 80, I don't know.

Legend players are usually rated on their season of representation, not on their career numbers. And in the 91-92 season, off of which his Dream Team version would be rated, Scottie Pippen averaged 21 points, 7.7 rebounds, 7.0 assists, 1.9 steals and 1.1 blocks.

Good enough for a 92 rating I'd think.

I agree with that but Pippen was only a 90 on the 92/93 Bulls team last year and 92 was same year as Dream Team year. I am fine with the rating as you said, it is the prime thing, and Pippen was rated 92 on the 95/96 Bulls team later on. Just curious to what his ratings would be if the 92 Bulls are back this year lol

I agree with the ratings so far, can't wait to see more.

Love was good, and is such a GREAT rebounder, it better be like a 90 something! I still can't believe he had a 30 and 30 game last year...crazy ish. But i woulda said his range would be around the mid 80s, like an 85+ overall.

It's possible that the rating scale may be different, so we'll see. If he was a 90 in 2K12 on the 91-92 Bulls team, he was underrated. Pippen could score, defend, rebound, was a playmaker, blocked shots and was amongst the league leaders in steals.
