NBA 2K13 Ratings - Dwight Howard – 96, Chris Bosh - 83, Roy Hibbert - 86

[TeddyKGB]

Obviously overall ratings aren't a reflection of the calibre of a player, but I still have a hard time stomaching Hibbert being rated higher than Bosh. And 83 seems a touch low for CB4. Just because he decided to sacrifice a lot of his game to play with James & Wade does not mean his attributes have dropped off since his days in Toronto.

It's funny I was just talking about Hibbert's abilities with a big Pacers user, coach2k. All during the season when the Pacers were winning and Hibbert was getting a lot of pub, I was thinking it looked like 2K really underrated him.

Then I actually saw him play in the playoffs, and it looks like they had him pegged pretty well in last year's game, lol.

Yup. As soon as the Heat decided to turn it on Hibbert became totally ineffective.

If Howard is a 96, Olajuwon and O`neal should be a 99 and Robinson and Ewing a 98.
Too overrated.
No way Howard is a 96.
92 is ok for him at best. The guy averages less than 20 points a game and more or less the same amount of rebounds of those 4. SMH.
It is very clear at this point that guys in the game are really overrated. Howard proves it.
I think that today there aren`t as many good players as yesterday`s, specially in the center position, and 2K is revealing these ratings to make us think players are basketball superstars, which is not true to some of them.
In the NBA today there isn`t a single center that deserves to be a 96. Sorry.

You can't base everything oft the playoffs. Roy Hibbert was solid all throughout the regular season and had a avg in points, blocks and rebounds.

So R. Hibbert is on the same level as Andrew Bynum? Hell no. Lol, Dwight and Bynum are the clear cut best Centers in the league and no one comes close. I mean R. Hibbert at a 79 is perfect, he is a raw offensive talent, decent defender and rebounder...Nothing more...


Chris Bosh is perfect. What would grant him to be any higher? He is a great mid range shooter, average athleticism, average defender and rebounder, and barely has a post game. What could possible warrant him any higher?

D Howard, meh I mean if he comes back the same Dwight I have no problem with that rating. In this generation he is clearly that good, he is unstoppable with his, quote on quote, lack of post moves and poor freethrow shooting. He is still the best paint defender in the league, if healthy and can carry a team on his also, quote on quote, low ppg total. As seen in Orlando.

did we finally got were he is hiding ? ...

mama mia, make some raviolis with parmessan cheese, call the boys and unpack our bats ... we have some family issues to attend so dont wait for us awake, just leave the food on the table.

Just kidding (or am I not ?) ... but am not so anxious of hearing about him (or his doings, which btw are less and less objective) but rather about association (offline) bugs & glitches fixes/improvements/new features additions and about online in general.

P.S:
Morto amigo (LD2K), where did you say that the bambino (2kinsider) was ? and what was his name again ? ... we just want to give him a trip to the neighborhood and to get to meet the family ...

I'm guessing you "quote on quote" just started watching Chris Bosh recently.
