NBA prospects predict their '2K' ratings

[Crimzon]

A. Davis: High 70's
M Kidd-Gilchrist: low 60's mid 60's
B. Beal: Low 60's, mid 60's
D. Waiters: low 60's
D. Lilliard: mid 60's
H. Barnes: low/mid 60's
T. Ross: high 50's, low 60's
A. Drummond: high 50's, low 60's
A. Rivers: mid 60's
T.Robinson: mid 60's/low 70's

I think you're underrating them all by 5-6, no way anyone in the top 10 will be in the 50s.

2K ratings are pretty strict.

Tyler Zeller: I actually don

[d.bball.guy]

MKG, seems like a really fun dude

[Tenchi Ryu]

Kyrie Irving was a 76, the first pick btw.

[RoundMoundOfReb]

A. Davis: 80 (John wall was 80 as a rookie i think)
M Kidd-Gilchrist: 74
B. Beal: 74
D. Waiters: 70
T.Rob: 74
D. Lilliard: 68
H. Barnes: 72
T. Ross: 65
A. Drummond: 65
A. Rivers: 68

Barnes seems like a really cool guy. Modest and well spoken.

He comes off a little too polished for me. Pretty obvious he has had a camera in his face for a long, long time.

Is that a bad thing?

[jbot]

Of course Rivers over-rated himself

i wonder what he'd rate his dad's classic teams character (if there is/was one).

i'm not sure what to think about them worrying what their rating would be in a video game. kinda funny but at the same time lame too.

[RedBlackAttack]

Is that a bad thing?

Not necessarily a bad thing. He is obviously intelligent. He just seems like one of those 'canned responses' guys that will spit out a bunch of cliches... I seriously doubt his actual personality is in-line with what he puts out there.

Then again, that seems to be the goal of most athletes these days... The Jordan model.

What rating you think Valanciunas will get ?

[Punpun]

Tyler Zeller doesn't play 2k? What the **** does he do with his life?

He was not only a basketball superstar, but also played on Washington High's tennis team for three years, and finished his high school career with a 3.99 grade point average on a 4.0 scale

Study.

What rating you think Valanciunas will get ?

Big V will get a 75 - 77

I think Crimzon's right. 2K's ratings may sound strict but I think it has more to do with their switch over to a 25-99 scale a few years ago (in contrast to their former 50-99 scale), so some numbers that sound low or strict really aren't, we're just accustomed to them standing for a different value.

In 2K12, the only top ten pick to be rated in the 50's was Bismack Biyombo and he, along with Nikola Vucevic and Cory Jospeph, were the only players drafted in the first round to have overall ratings below 60 (at the beginning of the year. I don't know where they finished).

Here's a full look of what the 2K12 rookie slate looked like (before the season began):
