NBA 2K14 Player Ratings Released So Far

Re: More NBA 2K14 Player Ratings - Harden, Rondo, Barnes, Thompson, Nash, Gasol, Kobe

Harden > Curry?!?!?!

Is this a joke? Worst thing I've ever seen.

Overall I think Harden is better. And I from Curry's hometown.

Cody Zeller a 68 is rather low though. Although, I get it he is a rookie. I expect it to go up by ten by year's end.

Re: NBA 2K14 Player Ratings - Rose, Crawford, Porter, Curry, Burke, Chalmers, McCollu

Harrison Barnes (76) doesn't really like his rating. Doesn't seem too bad though. He is athletic can put you on a poster, questionable midrange game good 3pt shooter not a bad rebounder for his position.

76 is fine for Barnes as long as he plays like himself. Currently, he's versatile and good to average at everything with exceptional athleticism. He just needs to get out there and prove himself with consistent play, aggressiveness, and efficiency this season. 76 seems right given how undecided Warriors fans are between him and Thompson. As long as he had his athleticism and something like Posterizer, he'll be quite effective as he can be in the rosters I use.

Re: More NBA 2K14 Player Ratings - Harden, Rondo, Barnes, Thompson, Nash, Gasol, Kobe

u cant be serious

I'm being facetious. I obviously don't think all of them really have low durability. But all those guys missed more games than Curry, some on reoccurring injuries as well while Curry played 90 games this season and missed the rest on minor ankle tweaks while having a breakout year, so the "Curry has a 20 in durability" take is ridiculous given how much he played.

Paul missed the same about of games or more due to his pre-existing knee issues as well. And Eric Gordan much more so. But it's easier to repeat the Curry is glass meme because they heard it somewhere on the Internet and he had like 8 ankle sprains last season. Don't get me wrong, Curry does have reoccurring ankle issues. The big worry now is not so much how often they will happen or how many games he'll miss as it is the timing of when he gets a tweak and whether it happens in post season.

Love and Kyrie I'm not really kidding about. Those guys are more injury prone than their reputations suggest.

I think Curry and Harden, considering how drastically different they are in their play styles, are really similar in impact.

They're both combo guards who deliver great offense and subpar defense.

I'd probably take Curry right now since as Sundown points out he doesn't rely as much on the officiating to score his points, but Harden has a little bit more potential for improvement.

Dirk has never played less than 47 games and that because of the 98 lockout...Kobe has always played at least 60 games excpet when their were lockouts...Rondo has had 1 season missing games because of 1 injury! Curry had like 6 ankle injuries in 1 season!! takes these 3 out and i might agree with you oh and JC of course

I know. Again, I'm kidding about the guys who just had a bad season. But Curry's only missed a large number of games in one season as well, and it was also due to one singular injury he was recovering from and trying to play on.

Nearly every sprain the last three seasons has been his right ankle. He played on a bum ankle three seasons ago and it never really properly healed. He had surgery in the off season and again tried to come back too early and his eight sprains were all on his bad wheel while pushing his recovery. He was finally shut down, got an extended rest, a proper brace, and has missed a minimal amount of games since. His games missed record doesn't look too different from the other guys with a singular season ending injury, and he's been recovering fine and playing consistently since.

yeah its obvious that curry shouldnt have 20 durability lol...it was probably a heat fan thats mad about Oden...but the same problem with jeff green, missed 1 season because of heart surgery and gets a 70 durability? lol he missed 12 games in his career lol

[BQ32]

Once again for the third year running Chris Paul is the most overrated player. The dude is a great player no doubt but severely overrated when considering his overall stats and actual accomplishments.

[BQ32]

LOL at you guys thinking Waiters should be over a 77, did you watch any summer league. Basketball IQ is nonexistent.

[jdogg233]

Harrison Barnes is better than a a 76

Re: More NBA 2K14 Player Ratings - Chris Paul, Anthony Davis and Dion Waiters

Cavs are going to be insane, potentially one of the best the game. I'm thinking the Suns will be fun to run with also.

What do actual accomplishments have to do with his rating? He is rated based on how he performed on the court. He is 2nd in assist per game and doesn't turn the ball over much. Elite handles and passer. Steals per game leader, 2nd in steal percentage. Oh he can shoot the ball from anywhere but his three point % was down to 33% last year. He shot 55% 3-9 ft, 50% from 10-15ft, and 50% from 16-23ft, and 89% from the line. Not a great rebounder but not many PG's are especially at his size and there are better at the rim finishers at PG (Rose, Westbrook, Dwill if Healthy). What is weakness size, strength and he can't attack the basket like some of the explosive leapers can?

And he is actually stronger than most people seem to realize.

Re: More NBA 2K14 Player Ratings - Chris Paul, Anthony Davis and Dion Waiters

Its crazy cause Chris Paul is one of the most realistic playing superstars in this game. You can score with him but he really makes his impact by facilitating. All the other superstars who have finishing, deadeye, or shot creator you can just turbo and press x and get a lot of easy points
