Of course, scouting is an inexact science. But MKG was drafted 2nd overall and is a prototype at his position, which is why he is rated way higher, as a rookie in 2K, than Rivers. Who is a SG playing out of position because of lack of size, rebounding, defense, strength...etc.

Mkg is going to be a decent player but too raw offensively , he is a 3rd or even 4th offensive option at best on a decent team. I think he will struggle pretty bad in the bobcats as he clearly needs to have an elite team and teammates around to be productive and get his offense going

I'm not saying he's gonna come out an put up Durant and Lebron numbers right out of the gate. Your right, he is raw offensively. Barnes has a better jump shot right now then MKG. But his impact will be felt right away, he does so many things well. He is a great attacker, and will find ways to score, he is creative, even lacking a reliable jumpshot, he will get points.

I agree I was just saying that to myself bron 98 bosh 88 however i believe wade should be a 95 for what he brings all around. Dynamic offense and one of the best defenders/shotblockers at his position as well....And yes until KD steps his defense up and builds some muscle wade is better to him. Imho

this dude donesn't know anything about basketball, so Andrew Luck shouldbe a 65?

Any Knicks fan who watched the season Amare just had knows an 84 is being
VERY Generous.

When we going to get extensive hq gameplay vids? And when does the demo drop?
All rhetorical but legit questions.

Austin Rivers is a horrible player maker, he has no D and hes a 64% freethrow shooter. I think 67 is perfect. Hes a better at SG than PG

I'm a little confused, lol are you talking about if the Bobcats chose Austin Rivers over MKG? Because both teams have sg's with the last name Gordon LMAO Eric and Ben.

I was saying, why do the Hornets need a sg when they have Eric Gordon, I agree about Ben, I think Rivers has more upside then him at this point of BG's career.

# 111 djwax90 @ 09/06/12 09:34 PM

These 3 ratings are all solid as hell. Love it. Especially like Rivers' 67 with (I'm pretty sure) A+ potential. Could be a frontrunner for me to run with in CAL this year.

But anyways it's going to take a while for Rivers to get use to the NBA level and he's basically going to have to change his entire game if the Hornets really want to play him at point . I also think he is going to battle with some injuries, he drives to the hoop WAY to aggressive .

LeBron was like a 69 on NBA live as a rookie and I think a 71 on 2K.. So there ya go

Check yo sarcasm meter

This is exactly correct! 67 might even be a couple points high... Did any of you people here even WATCH his games? Or are you all just into hype and highlights from ESPN!??? Saying he needs to be rated high, higher than MGK is ********.. He wasn't even that great of a scorer, Jimmer was a FAR better scorer than him and look where he is now..? Rivers doesn't have explosive athleticism, VERY streaky shooter, bad defender, he's not a playmaker.. He's basically an undersized SG.. Maybe compare to Westbrook if Westbrook was even skinnier, half as athletic, and couldn't hit his little pull up J.. Probably even a worse playmaker...

Serious what does Rivers have going for him other than a decent shot and handles??? His shooting mechanics are horrible too, that's probably why he's so streaky.. And pretty much every scrub PG in the league has handles so saying that's going to actually make a difference is ridiculous

How come Dwight Howard's ratings were not revealed?

So because I am saying that I have no problem with an unproven rookie having a low rating somehow means I don't know anything about basketball? Right. That makes sense.

Like I said man, what harm is it giving an unproven talent a lower rating instead of overrating them.

Keep in mind I am speaking of before they play their first NBA Minute.

It doesn't hurt anyone, it doesn't get on my nerves. This thread is about player ratings, I expressed my opinion on the ratings system overall. Don't come onto a discussion forum if you can't deal with people DISCUSSING things. Really simple solution IMO.

People can stomp around saying omg Rivers is 67 and Waiters is 71 and Rivers should be higher and blah blah blah, but if you want Rivers or whoever to be higher, then you need to identify what is wrong about his ratings that should be higher, obviously this can't be done without all the information available, but the overall ratings aren't as simple as this guy is a 84 so this guy should be an 86 because he is better. It doesn't work like that.

Jimmer and Rivers played awfully similar in college though. I will give you that.

Devotion to putting up points? He didn't even have big scoring numbers in college, what makes anybody believe he'll have huge numbers in the NBA? He also didn't flourish in the summer league either.. 10PPG, 2Reb, 3Ast, 21%FG, and 12%3FG... That's a true scoring champ right there!

# 120 RedRiddler @ 09/07/12 12:51 AM

What do you guys think Lillard is gonna get? I think it should be between 74-78. MKG got a 78 and Lillard is thought to be the only one to contend with AD for R.O.Y.
