NBA 2K16 Player Ratings - Top 10 Centers

Re: NBA 2K16 Player Ratings - Top 10 Centers

I know it's nit picky since they are the same rating but it's laughable that Vucevic is listed ahead of Horford lol. And Broom Lopez is not an 83 anymore... More like a 79 or 80. Then again I don't know any of the individual attributes to really argue his rating

Don't say that! I need to trade him to undo Billy King's abominations from years past! SSSSSSSHHHHH.

Re: NBA 2K16 Player Ratings - Top 10 Centers

Cousins being mentioned with Shaq is a bit ridiculous. You're comparing him to one of, if not the, best centers of all time. Sure Cousins is athletic as hell but his numbers are a bit inflated due to his absurdly high usage rate It's far and away higher than the other top 5 centers on the 2k list. It's even higher then Lebron James's has ever been. Granted he scores more points but he also shot 47% from the field. For a center that is pretty mediocre (also the lowest of the top 5centers on the list). His assist numbers are pretty high (assisted on 20% of his teams makes) but his turnover numbers are even higher.

cmon bruh

Re: NBA 2K16 Player Ratings - Top 10 Centers

Cousins has skills? yes a lot
Cousins has athleticism? no definitely not

He's athletic for a center




What center on this list can handle the ball and move like that?

Watching a highlight of Cousins skews people's perception. He can be dominant at times but he isn't all that efficient, shoots way, way too many jumpers. He shot 545 Jump shots for 31% according to BB reference in 59 games. 9 jumpers per game for a center jeez? Turns the ball over a ton commits a bunch of illegal screens, bad fouls some of this is he is getting targeted by refs but still.

Re: NBA 2K16 Player Ratings - Top 10 Centers

Dwight is a 85.....i love this new rating system. The centers are really rated as they should be

Yeah it does seem to be more in line this year rating wise for all players. Always going to be opinioned based when it comes to fans, so wont ever make everyone happy, as you have both homers and haters out there that think they know, when they actually all full of hot air, or so I have noticed on sports forums,lol.


Definitely looking forward to the game coming out, after deciding to buy it early, so hope Im not disappointed with a ton od bugs an glitches, that's happen before, especially when a lot of new is added in like there has been with 16. Game does look good on the vids Ive seen, and I was happy last year overall with the game.

Re: NBA 2K16 Player Ratings - Top 10 Centers

Normally I would agree on the DJ part but the defensive end is just as important as the offensive end on the court. And when DJ was on the court. The Clippers defense were so much better. If we are going to give credit to the offensive minded players, we need to give the same amount of credit to the defensive ones as well.

Was it? I'd be curious to see the numbers that suggest that's the case; I remember when DPOY was being talked about that his detractors pointed out the defense was statistically better with him on the bench than they were with him on the court, and that while he blocked a lot of shots, he was only average in terms of rim protection numbers.

Look at Lopez's stats post all-star break last season and during the playoffs. He has been performing at a high level.

I would have loved to see Valunciunus (Butchered his name) on this list ahead of Hassan. He is more athletic, better offensively and plays good defense.

Lol, did you see him defensively against Spain yesterday?

He did better than Gobert ,not every point was on JV and some points scored when intensity was low due to game being over around mid 3rd quarter. On top condition Gasol can't be stopped by any center from NBA.

However there is a lot to learn for JV to be among best centers, its about time when he'll develop decent mid range shot (he already hits it here and there and good from FT) and he can beat at least bit weaker opponent in the post. On previous few international tournaments he was much worse , he made some leap last year imo.

Be serious, dude really isn't better than Whiteside on either end of the floor. His pick and roll defense yesterday was laughable and it's even more laughable that no center in the league can stop Pau when we've seen otherwise.

Didn't even put him in comparison with Whiteside and by pure skillset barely any bigman matches Pau Gasol , he aint in prime time but when games matter i'd take him over any most athletic center/pf in the league.

Re: NBA 2K16 Player Ratings - Top 10 Centers

handle is skill, not athleticism. dude can't jump. his speed is alright but not fast.

I never said handle = athleticism, the gif was to showcase his combination of skill and athleticism...I'll ask again, simple question...What other center on the the list could put the ball on the floor go coast-to-coast, blow by their man and finish with authority like that?

I'm not saying he's an A1 athlete...Can smaller players keep up with him in the open floor?...Of course...Can other centers?...Most can't.

"speed is alright but not fast" It was fast enough to blow by the center trying to keep up with him...And that's what i'm comparing him to, other centers.

These ratings are on point.

Re: NBA 2K16 Player Ratings - Top 10 Centers

Where is Greg Ostertag? I for sure thought he would be top 10!

And what about Kwame Brown? He was a NUMBER 1 PICK 2k!

Re: NBA 2K16 Player Ratings - Top 10 Centers

If Duncan was listed at his true position of Center, he'd be at the top of this list.
