NBA 2K13 Complete Player Ratings and Classic Teams

Re: NBA 2K13 Complete Player Ratings and Classic Teams

His terrible coach liked to run small ball and the Lithuanian guards do nothing but look off bigs and take low % runners and 3s. There's a reason they underperformed so badly and a reason that coach has already been told he won't be returning to the national team.

But yeah, let's ignore all his accomplishments to that point. He would have been more dominant in the NCAA last than any of the other Cs drafted this year.

He clearly missed any basketball that Val played up until that point. He didn't even start or get minutes in the olympics. I think someone is just trying to validate the Cavs drafting Tristan Thompson instead of Jonas.......

Valanciunas and Motiejunas are VERY underrated in this game, did 2k insider saw them playing? they're like at least 70-75, Valanciunas maybe even more
i won't wonder if Valanciunas will be the Rookie of the year

Re: NBA 2K13 Complete Player Ratings and Classic Teams

I know Jonas isn't the most popular rookie this year because he is from europe and most people probably have never seen him play a game before. But I have seen him play (many times...euroleague, fiba under 19, olympic qualifiers) and he is not a 59 rated player with no sig skill.

Hopefully this is just due to the 2k roster guys not really knowing Val's game and he gets updated once the season starts. Because once the season starts everyone will see that he can play.

Also Bargnani did play nice last season when he wasn't injured....maybe even a fringe all star (i know I'm gonna get flamed for that comment, but he really was playing at an all-star level). I think he needs to get boosted up a couple of points to around the 79/80 level and be up there with Lowry.

You just have to wonder HOW they could MISS Ratings and Tendencies(within Reason) with ANY player considering it is THEIR JOB. I mean I find it so funny each year how things are off so BAD. EVEN Free Throw Rating is OFF for some players. I mean HOW can you mess up Free Throw Rating? LOL. And how can guys who NEVER take 3pt Shots, have ANY 3pt Tendency OVER 0? The MANY mysteries of 2k's Player Rating system.

Re: NBA 2K13 Complete Player Ratings and Classic Teams

Okay so I guess I can't start working on my roster until all these players are added in. How long do you guys think that will take?

Re: NBA 2K13 Complete Player Ratings and Classic Teams

I'm happy this video came out now I don't have to rush to get it. I play alot of classic seasons and without Kareem, Dr J, Webber, i will stick with 2k12 for a little while. Can't run with the 87 Lakers without Kareem. I'll get it for the current teams that's all. Probably just run with the Lakers and create a my player.

Re: NBA 2K13 Complete Player Ratings and Classic Teams

Damn, I hope this game ships with all the second rounders. No lockout, no excuse this time. Saw too many 2nd rounders not on the roster (Darius Miller for NO, Quincy Miller for Denver, Tyshawn Taylor for Brooklyn etc.)

Pacers Signatures Skills

Danny Granger - Deadeye
Roy Hibbert - Eraser, Post Proficiency
Paul George - Interceptor, Active Hands, Highlight Film
David West - Bruiser
Tyler Hansbrough - Bruiser, Scrapper
DJ Augustine - Acrobat
Gerald Green - Highlight Film

I don't know why I was expect so many more signature skills....

[thisisgr8t623]

2k angers me every year add new things but take out another thing. how are you going to have 76ers and kings without the player that made the famous. like cmon no c-webb or dr.j thats wack also how you have charles barkley in the game but not the 93 suns. and why isnt the 97 knicks and heat in the game like cmon you dont even have tim hardaway in the game like what is wrong with you guys.

Re: NBA 2K13 Complete Player Ratings and Classic Teams

Of course it wasn't official, they were videos taken by a user off a Best Buy demo of the full game.

Yes, 2k doesn't want this info out as it is counter to ratings already released, but those a easily changed with a roster update on release day.

To me the more concerning part was the discovery that some of the classic players from 2k12 are now gone from the game(Dr. J, Kareem, C-Webb). The classic aspect is not selling point like it was in 2k12, but I found it curious that any interview that asked about the classic teams got a stock, "all the teams from 2k12 are in 2k13" answer an nothing else. Now I understand why that was, they did not want anyone whose buying decision would be swung by hearing that some of the key players from some of the teams were gone.

For example, if my favorite part of 2k12 was getting to play with Dr. J or Kareem, I might not buy 2k13 since those players are no longer part of the game. It's not the way I feel, but I'm sure someone does feel that way.

Well I just heard/read that Kareem, Dr. J, and Chris Webber will not in the game and I am really, really disappointed to hear that. I will now probably wait to buy the game in hopes that those players may still be on the disc and that hex editors will be able to hex them into the game. OR I know this is a long shot but maybe these players would be included in a future DLC of some sorts but I highly doubt it. Those players were most likely signed to a one year deal and perhaps did not agree to being in 2k13 but its still disappointing.

2k angers me every year add new things but take out another thing. how are you going to have 76ers and kings without the player that made the famous. like cmon no c-webb or dr.j thats wack also how you have charles barkley in the game but not the 93 suns. and why isnt the 97 knicks and heat in the game like cmon you dont even have tim hardaway in the game like what is wrong with you guys.

Well I read somewhere that Barkley only agreed to be on the Dream team and that his likeness could not be used for any of the other teams he has played for.

Re: NBA 2K13 Complete Player Ratings and Classic Teams

It's just a pointless waste of time having the Kings without Webber and the sixers without Erving. Next they'll be telling us the Lakers are missing Magic Johnson or the Rockets don't have Hakeem. Either do it right, or not at all.

Those players are what makes those particular teams special. Why include them at all without key stars?

Re: NBA 2K13 Complete Player Ratings and Classic Teams

Why do guys equate the number signature skills a player has to how good that player is? Just because one player has 3 signature skills, doesn't make them a better than a player with 2, 1 or none.

Re: NBA 2K13 Complete Player Ratings and Classic Teams

Westbrook 93 overall better than Rose and D-Will .... he didn't win no MVP or nothing. I know a roster update is for sure coming out opening day. Still, I would love to see the numerical attributes for Westbrook. I am going to throw a few of Deron Williams' skills out to prove a point he is the best PG in the NBA.

Deadly 3 point shot, adequate midrange shot, drive to the rim with outstanding court vision to kick the ball out, obviously the best passer in the game today, competent defender. What does Westbrook even have? All I know is he has a nasty pull up jumper and can explode to the rim. He puts up a lot of points. Why is he a 93?

EDIT: Deron Williams BALL HANDLING is superior to Westbrook in all regards

[Sellaz32]

I wonder if Dr.J got fed up with them not putting in a decent dunk package for him..if any legend player needed a dunk package it would be a dunking pioneer like him. Here is out it went down: Erving: "So..did you guys take time to look at my highlight videos on YouTube? Don't get me wrong...I love the layup package, but there are more highlights of me dunking back in the day...I did win the first dunk contest ya know.."
2K: Well we thought guys could just give you TP with maybe the Jump Classic..or athletic guard..."
Erving: I'm out.

Westbrook is a better defender than deron. A lot of ppl say d will is a bad defender. D will 3 point shot was 33% this year. That's like average. His midrange was ok, not that special..his FG% was lower than russ..his shooting was not as good as russ. His defense not as good as russ. Then factor In russ vertical and athleticsm steals rebounding etc etc and you have his rating. Rose probably stayed a 92 because of his awkward season

With that being said, overall in this case don't mean squat. D will does have nasty handles and can shoot and can dish the ball out nicely and is a better pure pg than russ. So I say his rating is lower than russ because russ rating is inflated from athletic ability and other things. They don't play the same way so that's the difference In rating. Russ vertical might be 90 somethin and d will passing might be 90 somethin. See what I mean. And I'm sure d will stats will go up with his new team man.
