Olajuwon, Robinson, Ewing, O'neal, Mourning all should be at least 110.

Nope, I watch basketball in its entirety and he barely has a post game. Even if he does, he barely uses this "superior" post game and much rather settles for that 15-17 footer. So please tell me what warrants him a higher rating?

If you watch Toronto Bosh, a lot of his game was in the post.

Miami Bosh settles for the jumper because that's what helps space the floor at times for Wade and Bron to work. His post game has dwindled/decreased since Toronto - I'll give you that.

But it's only due to his teammates needing space to work. Otherwise, Miami would have gone after a big with a stronger post game last off-season.

And I'm not saying he deserves a higher rating. I'm speculating that maybe he's only an 83 because he may be a center in 2K13. 83 is a bit low at PF especially due to him having a better season. But who knows...

Really? We're using youtube highlight videos to validate a rating? Ok. Well I think Adam Morrison deserves a 99. He couldn't miss there.

But I would agree with him being the 3rd best Center which is horrible because he isn't that good. Just a lack of centers in this generation. Centers in the 90's were soooo much better...

I don't need to validate anything, it's just a video for the haters

But I agree with your 2nd part. The quality of centers is really poor compared to the 90's

He had a better season because he was more comfortable in what his role was and what he had to do. It had nothing to do with him getting better in shooting, rebounding, etc because it was close to his seasonal average, he was the same Bosh just more comfortable in his role.

I'm more confused about this Roy Hibbert rating tho....He should be nowhere near close to an 86.

People are so disrespectful, they forget what Bosh has done before he played with Lebron & Wade. He sacrificed the most obviously based on his numbers. My goodness do people have selective memory or something?

Bosh is low...

the argument of current best Center is between Howard and Bynum, no one else. So they went with 96---------87

really? Really?? REALLY???

You had me until you said Mourning...wtf? He does not even belong in the same sentence with those players. Plus Howard is better than him.

And are these official in this thread? I know earlier Griffin and Durant went down 1 pt than we thought they were.

I'm wondering if Howard is a 96 or 95...not that it matters really

Maybe Bosh is an 83 because 2K's predicting Bosh will start the season at center.

uh oh bosh might earn that defensive anchor this year LOL

Re: NBA 2K13 ratings: D. Howard – 96, C. Bosh - 83, R. Hibbert - 86

Dwight is the 2nd or 3rd best player in the NBA so I dont see an issue there but Bosh 83? Dude has been getting the shaft the past 2 years. But in the end I dont care I havent used official rosters in like 2 years.

You can't base everything oft the playoffs. Roy Hibbert was solid all throughout the regular season and had a avg in points, blocks and rebounds.

greg monroe put up better numbers than hibbert, hibbert was lucky to be an all-star, only reason he was one, was cause they had to have someone from the pacers on the squad

i disagree, his offense isn't that effective, for how dominant he is physically, compare him to shaq, his defense is 2nd or 3rd best though, only cause he blocks shots, i take it your a laker fan, if mike brown isn't a push over, howard will be 3rd or 4th option for the lakers this year, cause he only has one move, running hook, and even that is not that accurate, his dunks are what shoot up his fg%

Re: NBA 2K13 ratings: D. Howard – 96, C. Bosh - 83, R. Hibbert - 86

My guess is his defensive attributes are probably low.

No idea how Dwight Howard is a 96, though...cause if Rose took a drop at his position based on his injury, as did Wade at his position, how is Dwight so high? I want to see which attributes keep him in the upper 90s vs. Rose and Wade's attributes at their respective positions.

How did DRose take a hit? Wasnt he a 92? Any higher than that he is on CP3s level and he isnt quite there

Greg Monroe numbers are inflated due to playing for a crappy team. His defensive production and impact are NOWHERE close to Hibbert's anyway,,,

Hibbert was the best player for one of the better teams in the league and the 2nd best center in the east. Well deserved allstar
