Some really good comparison data here. Nice work. So far the only thing I've found with fouls is that it is much easier to draw a foul with "Bigs" down low. However, this could be due to opposing big men having a high (80+) foul rating tendency. Have to test more to be sure though.

Fouls are triggered by foul tendency not by actual contact that happens, so i encounter sometimes situations where attacking player is literally dragged down to the floor without foul call but also sometimes shooting foul occurs where defenders hand is approx 2 inches from ball and shooters arm..ridiculous isn't it ?

Derrick Rose Rim: 72-143 (50%) - Bad (Why the whole "he could dunk if he wanted" thing is dumb) Close: 70-167 (42%) - Good Mid: 24-82 (29%) - Awful 3pt: 16-70 (23%) - Horrendous Jimmy Butler Rim: 118-177 (67%) - Good Close: 43-129 (33%) - Below average Mid: 54-131 (41%) - Above average 3pt: 40-121 (33%) - Below average Pau Gasol Rim: 70-120 (57%) - Average Close: 73-187 (39%) - Average Mid: 71-165 (43%) - Good 3pt: 6-20 (30%) - Below average One of these is not like the others. Here's one for a good laugh. Rajon Rondo Rim: 87-125 (69%) - Great Close: 31-92 (34%) - Below Average Mid: 31-89 (35%) - Below Average 3pt: 25-76 (33%) - Below average Outside 15 feet Butler: 94-252 (37%) Gasol: 77-185 (42%) Rondo: 56-165 (34%) Rose: 40-152 (26%) Rose is such a terrible shooter he makes Rajon freaking Rondo look competent by comparison. But yeah like you were saying, Rose should have unlimited scoring ability, because did you see those last 5 games?

You're being ridiculous man. Nobody's saying he should be this unstoppable force. All we're saying is his attributes shouldn't be decreased based on his recent play. Are you justifying going DOWN after playing well? And you're comparing stats from the entire year. We're specifically referring to recent play which is the whole point of a "roster update". If you play well, you go up and vice versa. You don't say "Well, he sucked the whole first quarter of the year so that nullifies his last 5 games because that can't be who he is as a player." Lol ....Especially in Rose's case coming off an eye injury w/ blurry vision.

This is why I said stop feeding this guy.. He's not listening lol.

Now shut the **** up. Rose WAS one HELL of a player BEFORE injuries. HE was and REMAINS last MVP by Bulls since MJ days. HE still is the LAST Rookie to WIN All-Star Skills Game.

As for his dunking ability, watch the video and how he plays. He doesn't DUNK all the time. He is SMARTER PG than Westbrook

.

Hell, I wanted Derrick to RETURN to his PRIME MVP form after his injuries, but this might NEVER happen

. And yes, I watched him in his MVP season. He was phenomenal. Best PG in the league back then (not even joking).

3 injuries Rose sustained would make ANY other SPORTS guy career to END. This shows you how mentally stable D. Rose is. He didn't give up. He is changing his play style again to accomodate his, let's call it: new body.

In last few games he showed glimpses of greatness yet again.

As for Green being 89. Isn't it defying 2k LOGIC? I swear in interviews they spoke about NEW rating system being used in 2k16 and that players won't be overrated like in previous years? I swear I heard only a few will reach 90+ ratings and only TRUE Legends will hit 95+ rating. Well, got D. Green to 94 now in MyLeague due to training... Or did 2k FORGET there is TRAINING in this game? xD

No no I understand haha, I just realized trying to argue with Rash is pointless. You basically summed up what we've been saying.

# 169 MoneyOvaHuds @ 01/11/16 09:34 PM

Rose has 20 pts on 11 shots. His eFG% on his last 95 shots is 53.1. the weird moment when the words "Rose" and "efficient" merge together.

Rose has actually been a good NBA player for the bulk of the last half-dozen games. I mean, actually GOOD.

Has also taken 2 charges. He keeps referring to season stats when I think most of us know he's been pretty bad whether that was timing related or blurred vision or just not playing well. He has been playing pretty well recently. That 5/15 Hawks game ended up being a poor game because he made it a point to drive over and over to make the refs finally give him a whistle, which they still wouldn't do, hence the bad shooting #'s. He was getting pummeled on his drives.

And now two straight turnover by DRose on jump passes...inexcusable

Rose last night 23 on 8/13 shooting

Now a 40% FG shooter on the season and 75 % ft shooter

# 173 MoneyOvaHuds @ 01/12/16 08:34 PM

Right now, Rose is 52.0%, 40.0% and 89.9% over his last 7 games.

People do understand it's possible for low rated players to have good games IRL and that this happens all the time?

Gotta take the bad with the good

Here you go picking your arguments again, nobody is saying he should be high 80s etc etc we are saying if he's playing good consistent ball over the past 7-8 games why is he still going down..

And I have repeatedly given you your answer. It's called the law of averages. If Rose's solid play continues then eventually that will reflect in his overall production - calling for an increase in his ratings.

If we based everyone's rating off their last handful of games they would be a damn mess.

Last 10 games
Rose (7 played): 19.7 PPG, 3.4 APG, 49 FG%
Curry (8 played): 23.6 PPG, 7.1 APG, 47 FG%
Klay Thompson: 25.5 PPG, 2.5 APG, 47 FG%
Austin Rivers: 13.3 PPG (22 MPG), 53 FG%, 48 3PT%, 91 FT%

Curry's production slipped.
Klay's production is 90s caliber
Rivers' production is 80s caliber

Why isn't Austin Rivers in the 80s? Because his prior 10 games where he averaged 4.8 PPG on 36% shooting kinda sorta HAPPENED. His hot/cold streaks are as much a part of who he is, just as Rose's are.

Rose was overrated for a number of years and consequently won't get any sympathy from me now that his subpar play has finally been accurately depicted. It's an 82 game season for a reason - if Rose's play continues then 50 games of that will eventually supersede the first 30. But until then....

That's the thing, nobody's asking for Rose to be rated any higher than he was. If anything maybe 1-2 points nothing major. We are asking why is he still dropping overalls etc.

LOL @ this guy. Here you go....Hold this for me....."L"

I just figured it out. He just flat out doesn't like the guy. The only explanation I can think of for how you can justify decreasing a player playing better. LOL
By this logic Rivers should be decreased too.
