Is this the first update that has changed overalls? I know they have changed positions for certain players in previous updates.

First update to change the individual ratings. The overall is just a end result.

Literally the first thing you notice about Siakam is how fast he is compared to other big running up the court. Yet for 2 years he's been rated the slowest big man on the Raptors. I gave 2k the benefit of the doubt before but he's a starter on a 7-1 team. You can't be serious

If the name isn't LeBron or Curry then who cares - 2k roster team probably

Yup, JV, Serge even Monroe are all faster ??

Pascal Siakam went up 2 overall but they still haven't increased his speed and acceleration when he's one of the fastest players in the league. I don't get it.

Guys it's kind of scary. And I still don't understand why Beds hasn't increased it yet.

I do have a reason why it hasn't been upped. And I think that has to do with him becoming a cheese or go to player off the raptors bench. I'm not saying it's right either.

Re: NBA 2K19 Roster Update (10-30)

At least some consistency would be nice, for example
John Henson is shooting 38.5% on 1.7 attempts per game and his Open 3pt rating went from what it was previously ( presumably 25 as last season was the only season so far where he even managed 0.1 attempts per game) and its now a 73.

LeBron James is shooting 24.4% 3PT on 5.9 attempts, of the 54 players who have attempted at least 5 a game he is 52nd and yet he has an Open 3pt rating of 82!?, some other players from that group 3pt% this season and ratings
Zach LaVine 82, 38.6%
Goran Dragic 82, 37.8%
Blake Griffin 83, 48.4%
Donovan Mitchell 80, 33.3%
Victor Oladipo 83, 43.2%
Khris Middleton 84, 54.9% (He's number 1 for 3pt% by players attemping 5+ 3's per game and he has an 84??)
Reggie Bullock 84, 25.9% (Seriously? He has the same rating as Middleton who's shooting 29% better from 3?
Danny Green 84, 46.8%
Lonzo Ball 78, 36.1%

How does 2K determine ratings, do they use a RNG?

I think Pacal is a starter in the front court next to Ibaka. Also I'm hearing that he is the fastest big on the roster by far.


I would like to throw out 2 requests:
Take a look at Dinwiddie's shot. His form is not even close in game.
LeVert needs a quick or very quick release

I don't generally defend 2k ratings....BUT, it's a little early to be worrying about Bullock's rating. I mean the Pistons have played 7 games (after losing tonight). Bullock has been a good shooter for his whole career.

2k shouldn't be changing any veteran players ratings this quickly (unless they are grossly wrong like Siakam). Any changes this early should be reflecting new skills (such as Henson shooting threes), unexpected leaps (Vonleh, Magruder, etc.) and rookies being much worse or better than expected. Downgrading players like KAT for a slow start is nonsense off a 6 or 7 game sample.

All the speed, strenght, stamina ratings are totaly broken.

C & PF are too slow, slowest than reality.

Re: NBA 2K19 Roster Update (10-30)

They don’t care at all, we know that for 5 years now, why are you surprised?
I mean, the ratings are nothing compared to tendencies, I found that the only logical explanation is that the roster team at 2k is made of drunk monkeys rolling dice, cause there’s no way they have such little perception of basketball.

Plus, their mindset is that default 2k rosters are for MyTEAM and people who don’t know any better, cause the community will fix their game anyways.

Cheers OSers, we really should’ve given up on this laughable product years ago but we are somehow still going.

Harrison Barnes 98 jump?!?
His teammates Smith Jr is 92

I think the 2k roster team is limited by OVR. OVR is the bane of any good roster. Why? Because it should be meaningless. Being an athletic freak doesn't make you a better basketball player than Kyle Korver.

But the problem is EVERYTHING is tied to OVER. FA logic, trade logic, contract negotiations, and most of all PR hype. Players talking about it on twitter, articles detailing leaks of who has the highest OVRs. It's marketing. So as long as OVR is required to work transactions, rotations, contracts, etc. AND is a marketing gimmick, then it will be king.

If OVR is king, ratings need to be manipulated. It's why role players on legends teams like Steve Kerr have ridiculous OVRs. It's why athletic skills are out of whack for 3 and D types like Korver. They have to bump up their athletic ratings to bump up their OVRs so they get the contracts and the minutes.

Reality is there should be MORE separation in ratings. Having 90% of the roster between a 70 and 85 is silly. And it's only gotten worse over the years. Is it any wonder a big can stay in front of smaller players? Is it any wonder superstars don't dominate in played games like they should? Part of the reason is inflated attributes to pump OVR. But doing that increases speed, acceleration, vertical, etc. and impacts game play.

And after all that, the sad thing is there is no answer to fix it. The marketing aspect could go away (it won't because NBA players tweeting about the game is good for business) and not impact gameplay. But what do you use to set contract values, trade value, minutes, etc? As the developers are already dealing with the monumental task of trying to create smarter AI players at a time the game is changing fundamentally (Teams not using mid range or going after offensive rebounds, switching everything, etc.) and trying to balance distinctly different modes (park, myplayer, myteam, franchise) and consumer expectations, the last thing they have time for is to mess around with a new, horribly complex way to value players in every facet of the games.

I miss NBA 2k12 where no one on the Raptors was above a 70 overall on release date, and if you were 80 overall you were a fringe all-star, and anything above 90 is a superstar. Now it's completely ludicrous because the stats are just so jumbled together everyone feels the same.

Don't forget the badges which allow players to play WAY above their ratings.
