Another question.... But why doesn't Isaiah Thomas have a tear dropper badge? And does he deserve one?

# 22 LO6IX @ 04/08/16 03:52 PM

Could some badges be sorted out?

Cory Joseph has Silver Corner Specialist. Joseph is not a shooter. Carroll, Patterson, Ross, and Scola don't have the badge at all. Ross needs bronze Deadeye at least.

Forgot to mention that they have iTune app now... Don't know if this was mentioned before.

Russell's three point shot is actually two points higher (due to difficulty of attempts), even though Love has the higher percentage.

Could you change Lowry's jumper to Release 117 Shot Base 49 on quick?

DeMarre Carroll to Kevin Love form, shot base 55 on Normal

Bed, we need another Norman Powell (Toronto) boost, better badges and a better CAP Face.
His shoot is so hard, i think you need to change this.

shocked to see stauskas' dunk rating so low - he can get up and recently dunked on a big. he's 30 standing and 35 driving with crap contact - but irl he'll dunk any opportunity. I think he has 10 or so this season. It used to be guys rated that low couldn't dunk. not saying he's an 80 or anything but c'mon man.

Can Patrick Patterson get a boost please? He's criminally underrated while Scola is overrated. Patterson has been the best and most consistent defensive player on the Raptors this season and is getting strong consideration for Sixth Man of the Year because of his defense.
Scola isn't better than Patterson in any facet of the game. Scola is the worst defender on the team yet he's rated higher on defense and has higher defensive consistency than Patterson.

Left is Scola, right is Patterson

Patterson allows 100.5 per 100 possessions

Scola allows 106.7

Patterson isn't Draymond Green but he deserves some kind of credit for his defense. He has tremendous lateral quickness at 6'9. He has guarded LeBron, Melo and Joe Johnson for long stretches in games.

Damn ! I didn't even noticed this until you pointed out. I wonder sometimes what NBA games 2K roster team watches because Scola being better defender than Patterson is just plain BS.

yeah that was pretty sweet and I didn't see the whole game and missed his 2 handed put-back dunk which is my favourite play in basketball.
http://www.sbnation.com/2016/4/12/11...ld-me-back-fam
I'll stop here though - and to be fair he's not a 'star' so I can see why things get missed in a league with so many players. It's just a little type-cast like 'he's a shooter without size so adjust accordingly'

anyway I think in general it's easy to give the elite players high ratings almost everywhere because we think of them so highly and same with the lower-level players or newer players it's just as easy to under-rate across the board.

I'm only interested in Stauskas because he's from my area and I love players that in any sport that don't fit the mold of what you'd normally expect.

The great thing is we can adjust the rosters which is awesome, but there's alway that validation coming from the 'official' roster.

Also, Cory Joseph is a 27% 3 point shooter and 26% from the corners yet he has silver corner specialist. Ross shoots 38% from deep and 39% in the corners and has bronze for corner specialist. A lot of them are very difficult, tightly contested looks. He shoots 34% on contested threes, 71% on tightly contested threes. He has a case for deadeye as well.
Carroll shoots 39% from the corners, Scola shoots 41% yet neither of the have corner specialist either.

There is. Well let me say they did in previous games. I don't know what they will do this year.
