Yes their is, A good example of it is the chase down rating. If you gave a player a high block rating you cannot differentiate what type of blocks that can be preformed. I wish they put it in signatures like crossovers.

thats where the signature tendencies, that they had in the game for a while now, should be applied.

I was thinking these vids were going to show sig shots handle and dunks but this sound like bs to me

The Jordan they showed was Jordan at 27 years of age. Perhaps, different incarcerations of Jordan will have different signature skills. Regardless, based on his ratings alone, the man will dominate and hit shots, whether he has "Microwave" or not.

As for Rose being a "Floor General," Ronnie 2k said the sig was for players that make their teammates better, NOT FOR PLAYERS WHO GET TONS OF ASSISTS, etc. Rose obviously makes his teammates better, as Chicago has been better than the sum of its parts ever since Rose joined the NBA. In that regard (making teammates better), I think Rose deserves "Floor General" as much as anyone. I'd say even more so than, say, Deron Williams, who gets more assists, as DWill can't take a bunch of role players and turn them into a playoff team.

I personally think the perfect limit would be 7. It allows for an easier distinction of more tiers but also represents the all-time talents.

1 skill - Role Player
3 skills - Starter/All-Star
5 skills - Perennial All-Star
7 skills - 1st ballot HOF talent or Once-in-a-lifetime talent

Now if we can switch these skills out either on-the-fly or before a game for strategy purposes, that would be awesome, but I guess we'll find out today.

Ronnie 2k said some role players have more sig skills than some superstars. It's just to differentiate styles. However, it does seem that there are a handful of players who could easily have more than 5 (Jordan/LeBron come to mind). If they still are dominant in the areas they should be dominant, then it really won't make much of a difference. Hopefully.

I guess that makes sense. As long as players play how they're supposed to, doesn't really matter. It just feels...wrong giving Jordan only 5 when we know he's capable of more.

I hope "8" Kobe has all the skills he's supposed to have.

Cos I know my boys will be like Kobe don't have as much skills as Durant or LeBron, but then I can just pull out old school Kobe and show em whats up.

It will interesting to compare prime Kobe to now and see where 2k thinks prime Kobe fits with the all-time greats.

Rose didn't take a bunch of Role Players into a playoff team either, he has a very good team...The best player Williams ever played with was Boozer.. He's the Bulls 4th maybe even 5th option and splits tons of time with back up Taj Gibson? He hasn't had near the team Rose has

Boozer is the Bull's 4th option ??? no...

Behind Rose, Hamilton, Deng?? And on offense Noah obviously isn't one of their go to guys but as far as his hustle, defense, rebounding, his value would rank higher than Boozers

[ojandpizza]

Ok, my fault he averages 1 more shot per game than RIP, I looked it up, not like I was very far off anyways

Every statiscal value points towards Boozer being the 3rd option at the least.

also Deng and Boozer are neck and neck in touches and attempts ,jus sayin..
