[Steve_OS]

Andre Drummond just tweeted out his NBA 2K15 player rating, along with a screenshot of himself in the game.

a glass cleaner with no shot, post moves, handles or monumental defensive impact rated 83 scares me. but im trying to keep the new system in mind.

I have a lot to learn about this new rating system. The guy is average at blocks but rebounds great that's it and is a 83.

I'm sorry, but just in case you missed the memo, Andre Drummond can ball.

Handles, Passing, PIP shot bot blocking and rebounding

Well then, the Greek Freak better be a 75.

please tell me you didn't post a 2011 pick up ball mixed tape video to compare it to his professional basketball 2k rating?

Andre's a very effective basketball player and as a Pistons fan I pull for the big guy, but he has glaring holes. He's such a huge dude with such athletic ability that he can engulf rebounds like very little others ever could. He's also very good at collecting alley-oop passes. He can dribble in a straight line in the open floor with solid skill and occasionally he'll display a soft touch inside.

On the flip side, he has virtually zero ability with his back to the basket. He also cannot shoot outside of five feet and struggles to make 40% of his free throws. Moreover, his overall court awareness is lacking (his slow defensive rotations have been covered time and again in our region). He is also somewhat foul prone and still developing his stamina. With all those things taken into account, it was tough to get his overall up in previous 2K's.

That said, I'd be curious to see how Drummond fits within the context of the new rating system. I've already forgotten exactly how it works. Is it based on position? Or player type? If Drummond is considered a garbage man of sorts, cleaning up the boards, tying up loose ends (alleys, blocks, putbacks) then I suppose an 83 would be fitting.

Oh, his video did not show up for me. That may have explained some things.

I guess we should expect similar rating for Deandre Jordan? Perhaps higher even since his help defense, as of right now, is better.
