I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree.

He needs to be happy hes a 92...pippen was good but lets not act like he would be a top 5 player amongst lebron/kobe/durant...i woulda gave him a 89-90 at most..they seem to overate players just because they played "back then" and have a legacy. I rather them be realistic in comparison to the talent of todays superstars. Pippen was allstar...not a superstar.

1992 Scottie probably wasn't a superstar but the 93-94 certainly was imo. I think he finished 5th in MVP voting that year and if it wasn't for a bad call from Hugh Hollins Pippen takes the Bulls to the Eastern Conference Finals that year minus MJ. He really was awesome that year (imo). 89 or 90 probably sounds better as a rating for that 1992 Pippen but in the long run it's all about the attribute ratings instead of overall.

But Aldridge is better at almost everything else, mid range, post game, more athletic, better defender, faster...

Love (after his weight loss) I would say is at just as fast (top speed) but Love is quicker, moves around the court with more agility, has better endurance, and is more durable. Love is stronger which allows him to fight on the boards better. The only place Aldridge has love is vertical, but that's not enough to say he's a better athlete.

With that said, it's no way Aldridge should still stay at 83, especially with griffin at 87 and Davis at 80. Aldridge should be in the same ball park as Griffin.

You don't seem very familiar with Scottie Pippens game. Did you actually see him play on a consistent basis in his prime years or are you just making stat comparisons?

I'm sorry, but this statement is incredibly ignorant. Are you suggesting that there weren't equivalent if not better players than these when Pippen was playing?

Try Drexler, Richmond, Mullin, Bird, Magic, Shaq in his prime, Ewing, Karl Malone, Stockton, Isaiah Thomas, D Robinson, Olajuwon, Penny Hardaway, Grant Hill in his prime, Alonzo Mourning, Gary Payton...etc.

He was going against those players playing alongside the greatest player of all time..he DID NOT have the scoring load and pressure on him..lebron has had this load his entire career minus two years...there is NO comparison.

Playing alongside the greatest player of all time >>>>>>>>>>>leading a team that had the worst record in the league after he left to multiple playoffs and finals as the leading scorer and facilitator.

And yes. I grew up watching pippen and Jordan's ENTIRE career...I am 30 years old.

92 wasn't his prime

I'm a big fan of Aldridge and I think he has the potential to be better than Love, Love puts up great numbers, but the main thing he lacks, athleticism, is only trainable to a certain extent, while Aldridge can grow in rebounding and shooting the 3.

To me, Aldridge is a much better post player, better mid range shooter, more athletic player (vertical as well as faster), but right now Love is more fundamental. You can say about stats all you want, but 13 RPG don't lie. I think, based on Griffin being 87 and Love being 89, that Aldridge should be an 88, but I don't think they will give him that

2K got over 282k followers on twitter (a couple hours ago, I might add). Now I just want them to reveal the next 3, as promised.

PS: Since this seems like it's gonna be happening at regular intervals, OS should really just lump these into 1 big thread and update the OP as more players' ratings come out.

monta ellas is an 86... A guy who never once had an efficient season or a good fg%. A guy that takes damn near 30 shots some nights just to get 30 points.. Wow.

Re: NBA 2K13 Player Ratings - Scottie Pippen - 92, Kevin Love - 89, Anthony Davis - 8

Young Pippen is rated same as Melo? How come the player with superior defense, higher IQ, better slashing and finishing abilities, better rebounds and assists, and more athleticism is rated equal to Melo?
If 34 yr old Kobe is rated at 93, prime Clyde Drexler better be rated at 96 or something. Real talk.

Re: NBA 2K13 Player Ratings - Monta Ellis - 86, Dion Waiters - 71, Andre Iguodala - 8
