NBA 2K9 Screenshots: Player Ratings

[Benicio10]

no one's mentioned the new development here?

GRADES FOR RATINGS!

I love that change. Numbers are so ambiguous. This is way easier to understand how well players are in certain areas, and way easier to edit ratings also!

Honestly on some of them, what the hell were they thinking? Robin Lopez better than Brooke? Al Jefferson better than Chris Bosh? Stuckey a 74, making him equal to Anthony Carter, and worse than Magic rookie Courtney Lee who never even played a game?! Kidd better than Dirk? KG a 99?! (I guess this is somewhat to be expected..) Chris Paul 5 overall points better than D.Will? Anyways there were more I just forgot them off the top of my head.. thanks for posting Steve keep doing your thing man.. can't wait til' the next gameplay vid.

i agree with everything u said except u complaining about kg being a 99...i think he deserves it. Just cuz he doesnt score 30 points a game like a lebron or kobe doesnt mean he isnt top 3 or 4 most efficient players in the league and he is a rebounding, blocking, inside machine AND he can step out and hit the 15-18 footer. Turned that whole team around (yes i know ray had something to do with it too).

Kidd being better than Dirk is a travesty tho..that's the one i feel strongest about. I'd pick dirk over any power forward for my team outside of duncan, kg, and MAYBE amare.

God damn the rookies are overrated. Weak.

jesus a lot of these ratings are WTF worthy. TJ ford better then Devin Harris....Brent Barry a 79 rating....

The RATINGS are disgusting to me.

Antonio Mcdyess has the second best Mid range shot next to Rip on the Pistons and he's an F in that category.

First the point guard ratings show that a 40% 3pt shooter is worth an 88, 47% is worth a 97 and a sub 40% shooter is worth a 94. MAKES NO SENSE AT ALL!

Yeah they're pretty bad. Lebron having A perimeter defense and B Post defense ???

He definitely doesn't have better perimeter D than Paul Peirce

I'd image you can change it, CH2K8 allowed you to view ratings as grades or numbers. The grades aren't absolute, they're based on position - at least in CHoops they were.

these ratings are gonna make playing online suck. i hope they adjust these soon

Which is exactly the reason I refuse to watch any videos the past two years.

When I play, I will still have "Wow" factor intact to the fullest!

It's tough. But definitely worth it in the end.
