NBA Live 16 Player Ratings - Top 5 Power Forwards

[pawalker03]

Also looking at these ratings I'm really starting to like 2ks rating system because seeing all these 90s have me worrired about the 80s. On 2k you can see the difference in play from a 60 to 70 to 80 to 90 player but Live has me thinking everyone will play very close to each other woth truly no difference

Blake looks pretty good, meanwhile high ratings are being handed out pretty liberally i see.

Also, I know like 4 guys personally that Z-Bo could pass for.

I dont mind high ratings for the best of the best... I'm sure the whole league isnt about to be 80s and 90s... some of the other games ratings to me are too low. I wouldnt give Blake or Anthony davis a 95 overall, but i would still put them in the 90s. Anthony Davis's all around game, and blake griffins athleticism and game management skills i would give one of them a 93 and the other a 92

Yeah I always thought 90+ should be reserved for superstar talent only. There's a very good chance that after the centers are unveiled, there will be 20 90+ overall players in the game. Interested to see how this affects Dynasty trades & role player contributions.

It's actually more about the ratings for each attribute!!! overall sometimes doesn't matter. IMO

Doesnt that call into question the Overall rating algorithm? If a lower rated player Overall consistently performs better than a higher rated one( or for example if AD is actually much better than Griffin in the game), then surely the devs need to re-think their weighting of attributes right - so that it is more representative?

Because you have to remember that the CPU teams will make decisions based on Overalls both on and off the court

Player models look pretty good. Not sure why Blake Griffin is ranked above Lemarcus Aldridge and on par with Anthony Davis though.
