I haven't dived into #'s but from an eye test I thought Bruce Brown might get a slight bump for the Nuggets. He has been playing well for them..

Just gonna chime in that per game stats are not a great measurement (esp w/o MPG).

Keegan Murray's production is way worse than one would think at first glance. Everyone sees the 17 PPG, but 4 RPG in 34 MPG is BAD. His rebound rates (3.5 ORB%, 9.9 DRB%) certainly dragged his rating down (9.9% is a 50 DRB rating). Those are the Reb rates of a below average SG.

The only other thing I really would have done here is drop Jabari Smith, but I can understand why they aren't there yet on the #3 pick. Two weeks into the season it's fine to still be giving a high lottery pick the benefit of the doubt (by next update it would be less defensible).

2K isn't big on the eye test. 99% of their attribute changes are data driven. The eye test stuff gets updated once every 7 years (not an exaggeration). Brown's assists and 3pt shooting are up. Everything else is way down and likely balanced out.

And still he runs around with 70 DREB and 74 OREB...

Nobody ever accused 2K of being good at their job. He still has a 50 Intangibles so they clearly didn't touch him yet. They will assuredly max that out the moment they correct his rebounding.

My overall point was that his counting stats aren't effectively representing him. We already knew he was going to score points on a lottery team. None of his other attributes stand out as egregious.

I don't fully understand how Jose Alvarado rating went down. He's literally been their biggest player. Nothing has changed for him.

Happy that Paolo got some badges and rating updates. Layups and close attempts were getting annoying with he dude. Hopefully his handles gets a update. Probably should be at least 80. He's been running PG the last few games. Which is insane.

Shocked that Cade didn't get touched. Thought he would of got a mid range boost at the very least. The dude been living there all season

Not true.

Alvarado 2023
12.7 PER (-3.7)
17 AST% (-10)
2.0 STL% (-2.2)

Those attributes are also very crucial to a PG as well.

I've already written his breakdown; adding on Bol Bol & Mo Bamba to cover all three at once.

Franz has been the one running Point fwiw, not Banchero

Shocked that Cade didn't get touched. Thought he would of got a mid range boost at the very least. The dude been living there all season

Cade: 16.5 PER (+3.4)
The main thing he's improved has been his turnover rate, which of course 2K doesn't really have a great attribute for.

I don't believe I've seen any Mid-Range ratings get changed yet. Samples are too small.

Even Cade's 16-31 shouldn't override last season's 24-74. He's 51% on the season but still 38% for his career.

[/QUOTE]I told for years now. Stop throwing stats at me [emoji23]. I literally watch the games. I never talk about anyone I haven't watched for at least 4 games. He literally changed the last 3 games when the Pels are down.

I will never agree with inflating ratings for guys who are getting good numbers on horrible teams. I'm looking at the Rockets here...

I "throw stats" because it's precisely what 2K is using. If I give you the answer and you don't want to hear it, that's on you. You can't "eye test" 500 players in 30 different attributes. Nor can you watch every single game. Everyone has a different perspective and lens - which means you can't hold an editor to whatever YOU are seeing.

Your own words can't even be quantified into an attribute here. "He changed the games". Okay, how? So they should just boost his Intangibles rating then yah?
