I can't argue with you people who justify every move from 2K, but with that rating comes big time scoring, 20-30 points with KAT, 20 rebounds which isn't really like real NBA right ?

He dropped 25 and 10 on Utah on the 30th, then 22 and 9 on Detroit the next night. So yes, he can get 20-30 points.

I don't know where you got this "20 rebounds" thing from, but he is a top 10 rebounding centre in the NBA right now and probably first or second in Rookie of the Year standings.

I agree on the aspect that a player's stats reflect the type of player but still adherently believe that an 89 overall is dare I say, overrated?

I will use another excellent passing big man as my example, Blake Griffin.
This season Blake Griffin is averaging 23p, 8.7r, and an even 5a/ game.
We take those numbers vs. Draymond Green who shoots 46% while Blake Griffin is at 50%. Now using your argument of (a players stats reflect the player, I also maintain my argument that a players STATISTICS reflect his OVERALL in this game.

That all being said Draymond Green is an 89 and Blake Griffin is an 89 also. If I'm Blake Griffin my statistics are justified, for Draymond Green 1 more rebound and nearly 10 less points/gm and I'm wondering where this comes from??? Now Damian Lillard who you pointed out, I was not making a case for, as he is not overrated is he?

You do know that Draymond is a Top 5 defender and the league and that could possibly sway his ratings upwards a bit?

You do know that Tony Allen (a 6'4 SG) is averaging 6p, 3r and is considered one of the top defenders in the NBA not only to me but Kobe Bryant called him "one of his toughest match-ups?" EVER. Defense isn't a parallel to being a 90 bud. Now, Tony Allen doesn't have near the stats but I bet if he had 10p, 5r and was an 85 you'd call him overrated correct?

Two days ago Draymond Green was an 85, two days later he's an 89. Not correct sir.

Except you can't compare Allen's offensive game to Draymond's. Allen is a liability on offense. Teams literally ignore him when he's on the floor. Draymond is a legitimate weapon and a playmaker on offense while being elite defensively. He's well-rounded, Allen is not.

It's cool if you don't like Green, I don't either, but he's good.

That statement is true and coming from Kobe is completely justified. Draymond is type of player who does little bit of everything but 89 is just beyond overrated.

The Pacers decreases continue...I wish he would touch up the defensive ratings as much as he touches the offense ratings...

Solomon Hill still has a 39 dunk rating, SMH.

Rudy Gobert played last night. He should be active now, but he isn't.

Re: NBA 2K16 Roster Update Available Now, Details Included (1-8-16)

Draymond Green has better rebound, blocking, Assist numbers than Griffin.
Also has better defensive numbers that contributes to his Overall being the same as Griffin



EDIT: Yesterday Draymond was listed as an 87, now an 89 I see.

There you are correct, he is no threat whatsoever on offense, but I didn't make the argument for his offensive abilities, I did for his defensive because you brought up defense? Also noting: considering Draymond Green a "top 5 defender" is a stretch because I believe those to be Tony Allen, Kawhi Leonard, Anthony Davis, LeBron James or Jimmy Butler, and if I want to throw some big men in I can do that also. I understand your belief of his defense to be elite (which I agree) but statistically he's no 89, nearly 90. Should he go up anymore, AT ALL, and he's with your top player whom will be in the all-star game starting. All with 15 points eh?

As far as liking him goes, this is not personal, if it was personal you'd see me complaining about Anthony Davis losing a point, but I didn't.

Draymond is beating Blake in every traditional stat with the exception of points per game, Blake is shooting better from the field too. He's also beating Blake in just about every advanced stat except PIE and a few others with Blake at a 29.6 USG% and Draymond with 19.5 USG%. It's hard to argue that Draymond is overrated, dude is a beast and backs up his talk whenever he plays. Below is the URL to compare the two:

http://stats.nba.com/vs/#!/advanced?PlayerID=203110&VsPlayerID=201933

Draymond's individual stats over his last "x" amount of games is absurd, he's really good. I don't see how he's overrated in the slightest but I can see how people say that, usually saying that he's a product of the system but he basically is the system over there.

LeBron hasn't been an elite defender for a couple years now.

What ratings do you have a problem with for Draymond exactly?

Re: NBA 2K16 Roster Update Available Now, Details Included (1-8-16)

just cut it out with the D Rose stuff lol. they drop his physical attributes quickness, dunking in traffic, passing IQ, etc chill he's good

I just want to see more over a larger stretch of games, that's all I'm saying.

Re: NBA 2K16 Roster Update Available Now, Details Included (1-8-16)

They raised Manu and dropped Timmay....I guess that's fair. There goes my post game though, lol

I still cant believe we have a player rated 94 so its all good.

Re: NBA 2K16 Roster Update Available Now, Details Included (1-8-16)

Love how people are forgetting that Draymond is a first team All-DEFENSE player who can drain threes, get double digit rebounds & assists, and go to work in the post.

He's a beast
