[HylianNightmare]

No thank 2k

[oballers4life]

Rondo an 87 is a biiiiiiiit too high.

[dbugz]

wtf Baron Davis? :oldlol:

[noob cake]

Yay everyone on Rockets blows; Chase Budinger

[Interminator]

Where the **** is Brandon Jennings?

Pretty much where the **** is 3/4 of the 2009 rookie class?

[Richie2k6]

Steve Nash, Melo, Roy, Pierce, Garnett, Duncan, Bosh, Dirk all too low.

Lol @ Duncan with an 88... wtf was 2k smoking? Looks like just about everybody's ratings went down. I guess to be in the 90's you have be REALLY elite. Used to be everybody was in the high 80's low 90's, guess their standards have changed.

And Lopez > Nene.. lol.

[LJJ]

Where the **** is Brandon Jennings?

Pretty much where the **** is 3/4 of the 2009 rookie class?

They are probably all not rated very high.

Jennings is a 64 overall.

[Interminator]

Steve Nash, Melo, Roy, Pierce, Garnett, Duncan, Bosh, Dirk all too low.

Lol @ Duncan with an 88... wtf was 2k smoking? Looks like just about everybody's ratings went down. I guess to be in the 90's you have be REALLY elite. Used to be everybody was in the high 80's low 90's, guess their standards have changed.
Im still going to change the ratings, these new ratings like the ones on Madden are pathetic.

Seriously why lower these guys ratings? I still dont understand it.:confusedshrug: Its not realistic, because the guys then suck total ass in the game.

Anthony Randolph at 67?
Mike Dunleavy at 64?
Steve Nash at 80?
Allen Iverson at 83 over OJ Mayo at 78?
Stephen Jackson at 81 over Odom, Turkoglu, Prince, Ariza, Battier, & Shard.

Stupid ****.

[hoopaddict08]

Rodney Stuckey a 73? Below rookie Ty Lawson? Come on now.

Even Will Bynum is way too low. He stepped it up last season, and was arguably better than Stuckey. Or at least more consistent.

[JayGuevara]

Trevor Ariza is better than Battier, Wilson Chandler, Grant Hill, Salmons, AK, and Beasley? Oh?

:confusedshrug:

[kurple]

They got the rookie rankings right :D

Griffin 77
Harden 76
Lawson 74
Flynn 74

[WonkeyDonkey]

harris should move down a few spots. ellis up

[kurple]

Steve Nash, Melo, Roy, Pierce, Garnett, Duncan, Bosh, Dirk all too low.

And Lopez > Nene.. lol.

Agree and agree

[kurple]

:roll: Rondo over Billups, with the same score as Roy and only 1 behind Melo :lol

[hoopaddict08]

:roll: Rondo over Billups, with the same score as Roy and only 1 behind Melo :lol

My God Rondo is over-rated.

Chancey, and Tony Parker should be higher than him. Parker especially.

[kurple]

My God Rondo is over-rated.

Chancey, and Tony Parker should be higher than him. Parker especially.

Didn't see parker. Rondo being over parker is just CRAZY

[brantonli]

I think they are just trying to lower ratings all round, which is fine in my opinion. But they've got to do something about the god awful shots around the basket. Seriously, somehow 6'0 guards forget how to make simple layups and shots right under the basket.

[RaininTwos]

Iverson is 83? And Kobe is better than Wade? Oh sh*t 2K.

[Crazy Style]

Is this for real? :confusedshrug: I'd say 70% of these players are rated too low and some lesser players are rated higher than the better players. What the hell 2k, now I'm definately going to wait for 2K11! I wasn't planning to buy 2k10 anyway this year.

John Salmons only a lousy 71 after such a good season! He had 18.3 ppg, 47.3% shooting, 41.5% three point shooting and 84.4% from the line last season. There's plenty of other examples of players getting ripped off with their ratings, but this one was a very obvious one for me. WTF 2K10!!! :rant

[RaininTwos]

They honestly need to fix this sh*t. No way that Kobe is a 97. actually, shouldnt we be past overall ratings? Those things dont make sense. They should just have a rating for everything else and forget the overall.

[Melissa]

-Duncan and Rondo both at 87

nice

[plat1numX]

So they want to lower their ratings, but they drop everyone by 7-10, and kobe by 2?? lol

[Big One]

Trevor Ariza is better than Battier, Wilson Chandler, Grant Hill, Salmons, AK, and Beasley? Oh?

:confusedshrug:

no sh!t ariza is better than grant hill genius:confusedshrug:

[cavsfanatic]

Terrible. I know they have 25-99 ratings so I guess that's why. I'm guessing and hoping rondo is that high cuz his speed is 99 and he's a good rebounder for a pg. Ratings don't bother me tho.

[Crazy Style]

no sh!t ariza is better than grant hill genius:confusedshrug:
:lol

[Big One]

the fact that dirk, kg and duncan are not in the 90's just make these raters look so stupid.

i thinklast years ratings were fine in the last update maybe a little bit too high but not as much a they lowered them.

then again like someone mentioned they go a low as 25 this year instead of 50 so it probaly does balance out.

we'll just have to wait and play it before making any judgments i guess.

[Crazy Style]

Didn't see parker. Rondo being over parker is just CRAZY

There must be plenty of Celtics fans who worked on this game.

[Crazy Style]

If their ratings go as low as 25 which is ridiculous, who's the lowest rated player in the game?

[CelticForce1349]

For me personally, I really like the new rating system but some of the individual ratings are curious to me. I am interested to know what factors have elevated Rondo's status so much in comparison to his competitors. I look forward to going into "edit player" to learn more.

[Interminator]

I just noticed Kobe Bryant has a higher rating than LeBron for NBA2k10, although LeBron won MVP.

These ratings are going to make me rage when Im editing almost every single player in the game, I hope they finally changed LeBron's look. In 2K9 he still looked 19.

[InspiredLebowski]

Man, it's going to take a full day of ratings changes before I can even play the game.

Actually it was Kobe that won MVP so maybe in that sense he deserves to have that rating.

[Interminator]

Kobe won Finals MVP in 2009, just like Pierce won Finals MVP in 08'.

However LeBron was voted as the best individual player in the NBA in 2009, and therefore should have the highest rating in NBA2K10.

[Crazy Style]

Man, it's going to take a full day of ratings changes before I can even play the game.

I'm going to take a different route by just waiting for 2k11 where hopefully they'll improve the ratings and other issues that may exist in this years version.

Your right his rating should be tied with Kobe at worst since he was MVP.

[craiye]

The one that really struck me was Okur as the 19th ranked center. I mean this guy has a good shot at making the All-Star team due to the lack of centers in the west, but he's ranked below Dalmbert?!?!

As others have pointed out, Parker was too low as well. Not
horrible but not ideal overall. I suppose that's why it's a videogame.

[CelticForce1349]

I'm going to take a different route by just waiting for 2k11 where hopefully they'll improve the ratings and other issues that may exist in this years version.

I don't understand where you are coming fro on this boycott 2K10 thing. From the looks of everything I have seen the gameplay is vastly improved from 2K9.

[Interminator]

Your right his rating should be tied with Kobe at worst since he was MVP.
He shouldn't have been tied with Kobe, he should have been respectfully ranked 1 rating ahead of Kobe at 98.

However I usually just bump the Elite players like LeBron, Kobe, CP3 & Wade to 99 anyways.

[Interminator]

I don't understand where you are coming fro on this boycott 2K10 thing. From the looks of everything I have seen the gameplay is vastly improved from 2K9.
People would boycott 2K10 if it werent for the fact that NBA Live 10' sucks tremendous ass.

If NBA Live 10' had the same graphics engine as Madden uses, Live would slaughter the 2K series.

[Kebab Stall]

I prefer that the ratings have gone from 50-99 to 25-99 (or is it 0-99?), that makes more sense. I don't have a problem with lowering ratings, but I have a problem with the order. Some players are much better than others, but get given a worse rating.

I also love they said that they would make sure that no one was rated 99, so here we have Kobe and Lebron with 97 and 96. Whoop-di-f*cking-doo, they lose about 2 or so rating points and other guys end up taking a huge hit and have lost 5+ points.

Ridiculous.

[Crazy Style]

It's not really boycotting I was going to skip this years version regardless of how the game was this year. I rather save my money and wait for 2k11 for the main reason being the 2010 free agency, where a couple teams overall appearance may look different and I'll probably enjoy it more too, plus it'll probably be even better next year overall anyway so I think it'll be worth the wait.

[gasolina]

No need to sweat it. There's a lot of gamers in Operation Sports who churn out good rosters and ratings and sliders. Both for Xbox, PS3, and PC.

Just go online and download them.

Your absolutely right!

[quasimoto]

Jesus, does it really matter if someone is rated 85 or 95, as long as there is some kind of balance? :confusedshrug:

[Kebab Stall]

Jesus, does it really matter if someone is rated 85 or 95, as long as there is some kind of balance? :confusedshrug:
But there is no balance. Some guys ratings have hardly changed, whilst some have changed too much. I was all for bringing them down, but only if it was every player.

[oballers4life]

Lets make an ALL OVERRATED AND UNDERRATED LIST

UNDERRATED
nelson
lewis
dirk
OVERRATED
!!!RONDO!!!

[Bigsmoke]

:roll: Rondo over Billups, with the same score as Roy and only 1 behind Melo :lol

i noticed that too. 2K better change that sh*t quick

[[)-Wa[)3]

You all need to learn to read about 2K's new rating system before just flipping out for no reason...Rondo is rated so high because he has the ability to rebound, play defense, score, assist etc etc. at high rates for a PG...players like Nash will be better offensive players than Rondo, but they're ratings are lower due being crappy defense/rebounding/defensive awareness ratings etc...Dirk is only an 83 because he's a ****ty defender...he's an amazing offensive player and will be amazing in the game, but his defense sucks and he's gonna lose a lot of rating points in those types of area's...just because a player is rated higher than someone else doesn't necessarily make them better...a lot of ratings are put into the offensive/defensive awareness categories that really boosts players overall rating, but they don't necessarily mean much to the actual player when you're controlling them.

[quasimoto]

But there is no balance. Some guys ratings have hardly changed, whilst some have changed too much. I was all for bringing them down, but only if it was every player.
You can't know that. This number is probably just an average of all the stats combined. You can't just draw conclusions from it without looking at the full picture.

[OneMoreSucka]

JR Smith being rated below Larry Hughes, Crawford, Barbosa, and a rookie who's yet to play a game is a ****ing travesty.

[oballers4life]

JR Smith being rated below Larry Hughes, Crawford, Barbosa, and a rookie who's yet to play a game is a ****ing travesty.

crawford is better

[OneMoreSucka]

crawford is better
That's arguable. JR is a better 3 point shooter and has a higher points per 36 average, especially since he's been in Denver.

[Crazy Style]

Salmons being rated 71 is way too damn low even with the new rating system. His offensive game is better than average and the same applies to his defense. He should at least be a 75 or 76.

[phoenix18]

But there is no balance. Some guys ratings have hardly changed, whilst some have changed too much. I was all for bringing them down, but only if it was every player.
This. You cant say, oh we are making a game where no is 99 and then make someone 97. Pure BS. And when I look, I thought it was Wade. Second look, I see Kobe. I am like WTF? I think I will wait until next year.

[oballers4life]

salmons is way underated but lewis is a 75????:wtf: :wtf: :wtf:

[phoenix18]

salmons is way underated but lewis is a 75????:wtf: :wtf: :wtf:
Yeah, an all star at 75. Did the people from Live sneak in and destroy these ratings?

[Younggrease]

Yeah, an all star at 75. Did the people from Live sneak in and destroy these ratings?

its not about the overally numbers...its the skill set he will bring to the court. The overall numbers mean very little

Best post in this thread. Just throw away these overall ratings. Just have a rating for every single skill.

[robertshaw_1]

Roy and Jonhson better than Ginobili??
and Manu 83 ?? Is he injured ih the game??

[bdreason]

They are using an entirely different scale, so give it a chance.

It seems like different positions are getting different scores. For example, a SG/PG might be in the 90's... but that doesn't make them better than a PF/C in the high 80's.

I agree some of the relative ranks are off... but don't forget they change these stats all the time during the season.

I agree guys like Rondo are overrated... but lets not forget the guy averaged a triple double through most of the playoffs last year.

[bdreason]

It's not really boycotting I was going to skip this years version regardless of how the game was this year. I rather save my money and wait for 2k11 for the main reason being the 2010 free agency, where a couple teams overall appearance may look different and I'll probably enjoy it more too, plus it'll probably be even better next year overall anyway so I think it'll be worth the wait.

It's only 50$... that's less than 5$ a month.

[tedloc]

how the ef is rudy fernandez rated 68?????
is the bottom of the rating system not 50 again?
bullsh__

[tedloc]

just read post #51... gotcha...

[brantonli]

People would boycott 2K10 if it werent for the fact that NBA Live 10' sucks tremendous ass.

If NBA Live 10' had the same graphics engine as Madden uses, Live would slaughter the 2K series.

I'm sorry, but I couldn't give a crap for graphics between the two games, gameplay >>>>>>>>>>> graphics. 2K, while obviously nothing like real basketball, is far closer than Live.

But they've got to fix that stupid layup thing, plus somehow even the crappiest guards (and sometimes big men!) can make the most acrobatic reverse layups.

[tedloc]

man i can't wait for this game!

only 11 days left!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Skywalker]

ratings are terrible holy hell

[crisoner]

Melo should be in the 90's.

[[)-Wa[)3]

ratings are terrible holy hell

It really never ceases to amaze me...i have to applaud you and so many others :applause: :applause: :applause: ...read my post, post #51 please...it explains why the ratings are what they are...if it doesn't explain it enough for you then play NBA 2k10 Draft Combine...check the online rankings of players that are rated as high as 58...want to know how they do it? They increase there lowest attributes aka offensive/defensive awareness to make there players "look" better than what they are...a lot of these players in 2k10 are rated lower than others even if they are obviously better because of some of these almost "meaningless" ratings...it just boosts there overall, but it doesn't necessarily make the players better even if they're rated higher...

[crisoner]

Kobe won Finals MVP in 2009, just like Pierce won Finals MVP in 08'.

However LeBron was voted as the best individual player in the NBA in 2009, and therefore should have the highest rating in NBA2K10.


Well I wouldn't compare Pierce to Kobe because in 09 Kobe did finish second to Bron. But I agree with you LeBron and Kobe should at least have the same rating if anything. But remember Kobe is on the cover so they will be showing him more love.

Harden/Hughes/Barbosa rated higher than EJ :oldlol:

[robertshaw_1]

2k9 was the greatest sport game ever...

i ve lost in game 7 of the west finals (after a 56 games season) against the lakers (i was playing with the spurs) 100-98 (2OT) and broke the joystick against the wall, after parker missed an easy layup with 1 sec left....i coudnt sleep well that night...**** ****

should be interesting...i read post 51

[Nets fan 93]

harris should move down a few spots. ellis up
Whaaat!

Ewww..... Harris is just fine with this new rating system, Harris is a lot better than Ellis.

[HighFlyer23]

not that bad ...

[bdreason]

Try looking at the list like this.

A 70 is a C grade... or the 'average' NBA player.

Now assume:

65-75 rating is the 'average' NBA player.

75-85 rating is the 'all-star' caliber NBA player.

85+ rating is Superstar level NBA player.

[dab0yech0]

Rondo 87 and Rose a 80? :wtf:

2K shouldve stuck to their ratings system. I hate these new ratings.

I assume around 70-75 = what 80 use to be

[Bigsmoke]

Rondo 87 and Rose a 80? :wtf:

2K shouldve stuck to their ratings system. I hate these new ratings.

I assume around 70-75 = what 80 use to be

i think Rondo's rebounding and defense kinda raise his rating up... no?

[brantonli]

85+ rating is Superstar level NBA player.

That's a pretty good way to quantify that list, but I think you might have to put the 'average' boundary a bit higher, because quite a few just slightly above average NBA players are at 75 (Alston, Ellis, Westbrook, Felton, Redd, Crawford, Barbosa, Turkyglu, Jefferson). I mean, at this point, none of them are allstar but are definitely above average material.

[MeLO MvP 15]

these rratings seem better just cuz i rly shows the diff in the elite and ****ty players, also i love how high ty lawson is rated, but JR is too low it doesnt matter tho these ratings change every week when the season starts

[EricForman]

[QUOTE=glidedrxlr22]Won

[RoseCity07]

I like the rating but I laugh at Vujacic being rated higher than Martell Webster and Rudy Fernandez. What a joke.

Also Rondo=Brandon Roy

I know those are overall rankings, but overall they are not equal. Roy is a better SG than Rondo is a point guard.

Webster is one of the best 3 point shooters in 2k9. He was a starter for Portland. He is getting really dissed since he missed a season.

[Al Thornton]

:roll: :roll: :roll: Eric Gordon = 72 and OJ Mayo = 78????? They should be equal.

wait WTF harden a ****ing rookie at 76 lololol

[magnax1]

Ummmmmm Kind of weird ratings. D-will, Duncan, Gilbert and Carmelo definitely should be 90+ looking at the other ratings. Dirk, Amare and Bosh definitely look 85+ and Rondo, Shaq and Harris look way way too high.

[RajonKGcelts]

Durants an 82?! joke

[GiveItToBurrito]

I hate to nit pick but...Larry Hughes is better than JR Smith? Aside from just watching the games, anyone can look at the per-40s and advanced stats and see that JR produces - 22.0 - 5.3 - 4.0 and a 57.6 true shooting percentage - like a borderline all-star.

[All Net]

The fact Rondo is rated higher than guys like Gasol, Bosh and is one less than Duncan and Melo. I know Rondo did well in the playoffs but seriously...

[AJ2k8]

Well seeing as 2k is the closest thing to actually playing a game of basketball i think its safe to assume Kobe>Lebron:pimp:

[kurple]

I'm a huge Lawson homer, but 74 is pretty high for a mid 1st round pick. I think 74 is high for any rookie in this draft

[josh99]

If anything, how they calculate the overall rating is wrong. But remember, ratings are now between 25-99 which I love. Anybody figured out the overall formula yet?

[Killer_Instinct]

This is much more realistc IMO. Lol at everyone wanting their favorite players to be 95's and up.

[TryToBeUnbias]

did any of you read post 51 just becuase there rating is low doesnt exactly mean they will suck. Ex. Jr. smiths offense well probably be threw the roof but his defense is suspect

[phoenix18]

This is much more realistc IMO. Lol at everyone wanting their favorite players to be 95's and up.
:oldlol: Okay. Whatever. This rating system is suspect.

[Skyscraper]

you do know these rankings are actually based on 2k's set of parameters measuring a player's core skillsets and athletic ability? (those sliders you can adjust)

this is not a measure of overall impact on the game or "who is better than whom."


beside in previous 2k games, a truly skilled player can take any 80s rated player and utterly dominate a casual player who abuses the superstars. It's all up to how talented the player is. less screen and rolling for easy buckets and LESS dunking nonstop.

if you have played the NBA Draft Combine, then you will know what this new stamina turbo meter is all about.

no more nonstop fast breaks with amazing dunks all the time.

Example:

my guy ran into the passing lanes and the ball hit him in the chest and bounced to his teammate (as opposed to always snatching it out of the air each time). My guy starts running ahead of the defense and my teammate passes it to me.

I caught it at about a few steps outside the three and I was wide open. i jammed the turbo for a monster jam and.... I blew the dunk...

in thefuture, I turbo close to the bucket, release it and put in a layup instead.


Much more realistic in the middle of a very tiring game.

[J23]

Whats up with Pierce? Also why is AI so high?

[IamSofaKing]

This sucks, if you change spend most of your time changing ratings by the time the next patch/roster update comes it will be a waste of time...

[Samurai Swoosh]

Rondo the 3rd best point guard in the league?

:roll:

Jesus Christ ...

These ratings are horrificly bad

[Dbrog]

Everyone needs to read post #51. These ratings are fine with a few exceptions (which can and probably will be fixed). Just to give people an idea, my PG in draft combine is only a 42 overall. He has 95 speed, 90 quickness, and 80 ball handling. I guarantee he will play much better than his rating.

BTW, the PG ratings in this game are going to be higher than the other positions because of the stats they added such as off-hand dribbling and ball security. Just trust me when I say, these ratings will be the best out of any 2k game.

[JM720]

You all need to learn to read about 2K's new rating system before just flipping out for no reason...Rondo is rated so high because he has the ability to rebound, play defense, score, assist etc etc. at high rates for a PG...players like Nash will be better offensive players than Rondo, but they're ratings are lower due being crappy defense/rebounding/defensive awareness ratings etc...Dirk is only an 83 because he's a ****ty defender...he's an amazing offensive player and will be amazing in the game, but his defense sucks and he's gonna lose a lot of rating points in those types of area's...just because a player is rated higher than someone else doesn't necessarily make them better...a lot of ratings are put into the offensive/defensive awareness categories that really boosts players overall rating, but they don't necessarily mean much to the actual player when you're controlling them.

He sort of has a point, defense and offensive awareness in 2K is very valuable... But Rondo an 87 is a joke looks like Mike Wang hacked 2K's computers :mad:

[juju151111]

Read post #51 EVERYOne. You could be rated a 90 and still be complete useless on offense. The players your worried about will play just like in real life even if they are rated in the 70s.

[RoseCity07]

how the ef is rudy fernandez rated 68?????
is the bottom of the rating system not 50 again?
bullsh__

bottom rating is 25 I think.

[big baller]

Rondo - 87
Pierce - 84
KG - 89
Ray-Ray - 80


Somewhere, Spudjay is having an orgasm. Or maybe he works for 2k sports now...

[big baller]

Ya, I hope they fixed the layup thing, I had NBA 2k9 for the ps2 [didn't have the Xbox when the game came out, now I do though :)] and any easy layup was missed. To make one was like as rare as hitting a half court shot. Retarded as ****, everyone can make a layup, common now 2k...

[KB2009Champ]

smh at people spazzing out because kobe is rated one point ahead of bron and wade. he is on the cover and just won a finals mvp. wtf else did you expect? If wade or lebron were on the cover and just won a chip, guess what, they'd be rated higher too. relax. its not like they made kobe a 99 and wade and bron a 92.

its just one f*ckin point.

i'd be more concerned about players like rondo who are apparently super elite now. i really don't understand how they came up with some of these ratings.

I understand what your saying but...There are guys that should have been in the 90's like Danny Granger, Carmelo Anthony, Devin Harris...84 for Granger is unfair and 86 for Harris is unfair. Both are Offensive and Defensive threats

[[)-Wa[)3]

I understand what your saying but...There are guys that should have been in the 90's like Danny Granger, Carmelo Anthony, Devin Harris...84 for Granger is unfair and 86 for Harris is unfair. Both are Offensive and Defensive threats

difference is, neither of them are superstars(melo borderline)...dwight howard is a superstar and is only rated an 89...no way either of those two should be ahead of him...but like i said your overall doesn't matter, these players will be exactly the same on the game as they are on the court...

Ryan Gomes isn't that bad. Damn. Maybe the ratings are lower but like a 95 in 2k9 equals to an 88 in 2k10.

don't always hit the turbo.. especially when the player's fatigue is beginning to get low and if you are in traffic.
