NBA 2K14 Video - Player Ratings

[MrBigShot1]

Will Bynum has acrobat, finisher, pick and roll maestro and microwave. 2k hooked him up...nice to see KCP with an A- outside, and Drummond with a much needed rating boost. Brandon Jennings at 87 was kind of shocking.

The heck, Klay Thompson only a 73 and with a C for perimeter D when he was our best perimeter D guy last season, the only one who could stop Parker, and regularly assigned the toughest wing matchup? Should at least be a B-.

Lol. Kent Bazemore, who's probably played less than 60 NBA minutes is only 3 points below Klay. Baze should be about a 68 and Klay a 75-76.

Harrison Barnes with anti freeze. Never thought of him that way.

Iggy loaded with sig skills. Not sure he needs acrobat but the choice to switch him from Posterizer to Highlight was probably a good one if he has the right dunk packages.

Bogut being a bit shorthanded on sig skills. He should have brick wall. He was laying down nasty screens all playoffs. Iggy can attest to that.

A bit shocked certain role players like Norris Cole , Chris Andersen , or Chandler Parsons didn't receive a bit of rating boost. Nothing major but I expected at least 3-4 points up especially since all 3 played arguably the best ball of their careers.

The last thing you want is 2K padding stats to get overalls to come out the way you like. And it's Steph not Seth.

He's actually an "86" and the third best player on the team. No person in their right mind believes that Ginobili is better than Leonard, let alone still better than Parker. Parker is a better passer, defender and is far more efficient than all three mentioned players. He even puts up similar, or better, numbers in far less minutes and in an offense that is about shot distribution. 2K just ****s on him yearly, even when he's the bonafide third or fourth best player at his position.

Rashidi (Real 2K Insider) just broke it down on his blog:

POINT GUARD (104) 93 - Chris Paul (-1) - 26.4 PER 92 - Derrick Rose (0) - 23.0 PER (2012) 91 - Russell Westbrook (+1) - 23.9 PER 90 - Rajon Rondo (+1) - 18.1 PER 89 - Kyrie Irving () 88 - Stephen Curry (0) - 21.3 PER 88 - Deron Williams 88 - Jrue Holiday (0) 86 - Tony Parker (-1) - 23.0 PER 85 - John Wall (0) - 20.8 PER 85 - Ty Lawson 84 - Damian Lillard 83 - Kyle Lowry 83 - Brandon Jennings (0) - 16.1 PER 83 - Kemba Walker 83 - Mike Conley 82 - Eric Bledsoe (+1) - 17.5 PER 81 - Nate Robinson 81 - Chauncey Billups 80 - Steve Nash (0) - 16.0 PER NBA 2K13 Ratings that are likely identical in NBA 2K14 Chris Paul: 94 Pass, 94 OffAwr, 91 DefAwr Derrick Rose: 88 Pass, 99 OffAwr, 81 DefAwr Russell Westbrook: 73 Pass, 89 OffAwr, 81 DefAwr Rajon Rondo: 99 Pass, 93 OffAwr, 94 DefAwr Stephen Curry: 85 Pass, 96 OffAwr, 77 DefAwr Tony Parker: 87 Pass, 89 OffAwr, 72 DefAwr John Wall: 86 Pass, 88 OffAwr, 76 DefAwr Brandon Jennings: 85 Pass, 89 OffAwr, 71 DefAwr Eric Bledsoe: 75 Pass, 68 OffAwr, 79 DefAwr Steve Nash: 91 Pass, 99 OffAwr, 65 DefAwr Jeremy Lin: 80 Pass, 81 OffAwr, 65 DefAwr Mario Chalmers: 74 Pass, 74 OffAwr, 79 DefAwr Reggie Jackson: 58 Pass, 72 OffAwr, 59 DefAwr Not very difficult to see where these ratings are screwed up.

Yeah, who in their right mind believes Chauncey Billups is still a starting caliber point guard? 2K Sports, that's who. Yes, Deron Williams and Jrue Holiday are both better than Tony Parker, while Eric Bledsoe is only 4 points below him!!!!!!!!

[JazzMan]

Gordon Hayward has a whopping 70 ovr., despite being Utah's 3rd best player last year behind Jefferson and Millsap.

How in the blue hell is Stephen Jackson, Tracy McGrady, Ben Gordon, and other washed-up wingmen better rated than Hayward? Oh yeah, I forgot that these ratings are all about reputation.

[infam0us]

That Shumpert 3pt rating is gonna make him a top 10 2k player this year. Knicks are going to be a pain in the ***

[Wafflebrains]

Lol. Can 2K make it anymore obvious that they are racist/xenophobic?

He had that same rating at the end of last year from three. I can't knock him he shot over 41% from three. He is not a good overall shooter though so the rest of his midrange should be average or below.
