Kevin Durant Rated 95 in NBA 2K15, 3 Other Players Rated Above 90, Who Deserves It?

[Mbalmer]

King James, Kobe (yes, he still deserves it) Melo, Love, and NOAH!!!

I know that is more then 3, just think those guys deserve it.

Durant, Melo, Lebron, Cp3 probably

lebron, cp3, westbrook, rondo, dwight, possibly curry/love/kawhi/duncan/cousins/aldridge/pg13

but i guess thats more than 3....so ill just leave them in bold who i expect it to be

based off 2k14 and previous years overall system, its likely to be 2 point guards with lebron

Hm, can't imagine it should be Melo.

Love watching him play (in-market for the Knicks), but I think a 90 rating is a bit beyond him. One of the best handful of scorers in the league, though.

KD is already named, and you have to figure LeBron and CP3 are locks. That leaves one spot. Reasonably, I think it's one of two guys:

• Curry
• Westbrook

Love or Davis is a stretch, don't think it'll be either guy. Paul George is hurt, so he's likely out. Rose probably needs to prove himself before getting a 90+ rating again.

Lebron westbrook cp3 anybody saying any other names is ridiculous

I think Westbrook's 3pt rating my keep him below 90 but u never know. I would add Paul George but that midrange shot is so inconsistent

Two of the three is obvious (James and Paul) while the last spot could go to either Howard, Westbrook, Love or (biggest wildcard) Griffin.

If I had to pick just one of those guys it would be Howard, he's still the best big man in the NBA even with his offensive limitations.

Lebron (Obviously he was 99 in 2k14, Carmelo Anthony, Paul George if he wasn't injured, but since he is I msot likely Derrick Rose or Russell Westbrook.

I thinking PG13, LBJ, and CP3. picking paul george because of his defense and offense game. being that defense matters this year, should make him a 90

I find it hard to believe that Melo dropped below 90 from what a 92 last year. He basically carried the Knicks to nowhere but he played out of position at PF and put up the same stats.

27pts 8reb 3 ast shooting 40% from 3pt land is nothing to sneeze it.

I wouldn't be surprised if they had changed how overall rating works man, the guy isn't specially good in any other field different to getting buckets...

hmmm I wonder if this the year that 2k Insider will finally be gone....

I don't believe the "2K Insider" ever existed. I think it was a gimmick they ran with or a group of individuals that didn't pay close attention to the non - stars of the league.

Happy we have a former member of the community on hand to help alleviate the long standing issues with the default roster. Too bad Rashidi was so abrasive and "know - it - all" with his roster sets and towards the developers or he could have gotten the job a while ago. Or he could been working in conjunction with Beds on the default roster. Oh well.......

you realize the joke of a roster 2k has had in the past is no longer in effect right? guys should no longer be rated off their media hype

I think they probably did but the funny thing is Melo defense in the post is actually very good much better than Durant, Paul George probably a strength thing. Melo is an average shot blocker but averages more blocks per game than LeBron 0.7 to 0.3 Bpg, average passer, average help defender, average wing defender. However when you look at when players are playing against him he doesn't really get scored on the way people think.

Check out his actual PER allowed over 48 minutes to estimate how much people are really scoring on him assist, reb, etc when he is on the floor. It is very low.

Thank you. So many people have this misconception that Melo is a horrible defender. He's isn't elite but he's better than the league average imo. Maybe on Denver he was below average. But since he's been on the Knicks he hasn't been bad. Harden however is hard to watch.
