I love people who watch SportsCenter and then give their scouting report of players. Blake has "no moves in his arsenal" besides the dunk? Blake actually has some of the best footwork out of all the young forwards in the League.

I can do it too. All Kobe does is shoot contested fadaways from 15+ feet. He literally has no other moves in his arsenal. All Durant can do is jack 3's and mindrange, and he only makes them cause he's so tall. All Melo does is jack post fadaways. Yada, yada, yada...

FINALLY Rondo gets the respect he deserves.

You must not have watched him in the Playoffs. Understandable considering you're a Bulls fan.

Knew that was coming. Actually i'am huge cetlics & Rondo fan. He has the most inconsistent jumper of all time.

Basically if you give him 70 or 75 that means he's gona make every shot where he's open, and we know he doesn't. Or he doesn't even take most of thoses open shot oportunities.

Knicks are my favorite team, and Melo is one of my favorite players, but a 92 overall rating is a f---ing joke. Melo was rated properly in the high 80's, considering he's an average defender and rebounder for his size, and a below-average playmaker. Melo is a scorer, point blank, and one of the best and his rating should reflect that. Let me guess: Dirk is probably still gonna be in the low 80's too, right?

I probably shouldn't get so caught up in the overall ratings, considering 2K values different attributes much differently. 2K really values speed, and they always rate Melo as one of the fastest SF's in the game. 2K will also probably give Melo a 95+ offensive awareness rating, even though Melo is not a great playmaker. Whatever...if Durant is rated as 95 and Kobe 93, then at least the inflated scale is consistent.

Three point shot is lethal, passing, offensive awareness, competent defender. In the end, the Overall (OVR) rating does not matter, that mainly shows the prestige of the basketball player. Even if Melo is 92 overall, I would still take an 81-83 overall Gerald Wallace over him. Wallace is the better player despite the overall rating, Melo just has higher shooting percentage. Think about it

Please get out of this forum with that nonsense....you disgust me.

I'm not sure you understand my post. But I agree with you.

I believe 2K has tweaked their rating system this year. As long as Melo is not a lockdown defender or streaky I am ok. As long as Kobe is a volume shooter and not a very high percentage I am ok with it. If Rondo doesn't start to hit jumpers all day I don't care.

Rondo current 2K12 living roster 86 2K13 90. That is a huge jump so they must have bumped up his shooting from his playoff play or tweaked what the ratings mean. I hope they don't have Rondo making crazy amounts of jumpers because of what he did in the playoffs. I mean the rest of his attributes are maxed out for passing, and defense.

Melo current 2K12 living roster 90 2K13 92. Minor bump up I will wait to see what changed in his individual ratings Melo had a stronger late half of 2012 but overall I think he had a down year. His defensive effort improved a little but I will wait to see how he plays to judge.

Kobe current 2K12 living roster 94 2K13 93. Minor bump down. Kobe is showing a decline up in age but probably should be the 2 or first SG. His midrange is slighly higher than what it really should be. You take away some of his dunking ability/ dunking package and give him and very few others the post footwork it will be spot on.
