I understand we was a bad team last year but can the KNICKS get some love you must have not seen any games this year

The bias is strong with this one. I'll take him myself.

Come on 2k Melo should at least be a 89 or 90

Melo
2013: 24.8 PER, 56 TS% on 35.6 USG% (Lead league in USG)
2014: 24.4 PER, 56 TS% on 32.4 USG%
2015: 21.5 PER, 53 TS% on 32.2 USG%
2016: 20.7 PER, 53 TS% on 30.0 USG%

Small Forwards
94 - LeBron James (26.7 PER)
93 - Kevin Durant (28.6 PER)
92 - Kawhi Leonard (27.1 PER)
89 - Paul George (21.3 PER)
87 - Carmelo Anthony (20.7 PER)

The fact that Melo is even that high exemplifies 2K's generosity.

and DWill is a 75 he is scoring 15 points a game

Wat

one bad game from Prozingis and he a 79 SMH.

Porzingis is shooting 35% over his last 15 games. Hyperbole works both ways.

and last Lopez is a 78 he is killing in the paint blocking and scoring

Robin Lopez was straight garbage up until 5 games ago. He has since gone up 2 OVR in conjunction with his elevated play.

if Sash has not played how do u go from 68 to 64

.....Kudos on typing the most homerific statement of 2016. If you are defending Sasha Vujacic's play (4.9 PER, 36 TS%, a healthy 315 minutes) you hereby revoke all claim to being a Knicks fan.

Do these roster updates affect playbooks and playtype assignments?

I was just playing MyTeam and the Pacers playbook was different and guys had different play assignments.

Roster updates do update playbooks etc. To my understanding this is something Da Czar works on throughout the year rather than Beds.

Maybe this is just me being a c's fan but i feel crowder is criminally underrated on D. 68 lat quick and 62 shot contest yet he's one of the best defenders on our team. Just don't understand that

Shot Contest isn't that big a deal since Crowder isn't a shot blocker.
On the other hand, 90 Pass Perception (position average: 67) is pretty significant.

Pass Perception
95 Paul Millsap
95 Rajon Rondo
95 Kyle Lowry
95 Stephen Curry
94 Anthony Davis
92 Russell Westbrook
92 Draymond Green
92 John Wall
90 LeBron James
90 Jae Crowder
90 Ricky Rubio

Carmelo Anthony,


1.) how does Melo passing vision goes down and this is the best passing season of his career so far ????

1. Melo had a better passing season in 2012.
2. 2K updates ratings regularly which means Melo likely had a decrease in assist rate.
3. 70 Passing Vision to 20.2 AST% means Melo is rated above scale (i.e. he is overrated).

Passing Vision
71 Jerian Grant (21.8 AST%)
71 Jose Calderon (21.5 AST%)
70 Carmelo Anthony (20.2 AST%)

Welp

2.) Why 2k never touched his (Melo) FT ratings yet? dude is at a 79 since release day. has been at 88% for first 2 months of season and now is at 84%

FT% is outdated for most players. Typically, this gets updated league-wide in one fell swoop.

Huh???? How do Butler and Rose go down? More specifically Butler. They are playing the best ball of the season.

......Butler and Rose both went up.......

Re: NBA 2K16 Roster Update Available Now, Details Included (1-7-16)

are they actually updating TENDENCIES or just ratings? rating updates without tendency updates is literally worthless.

Not true in the slightest; online play has always been the primary goal of the ratings updates. Not especially helpful to offline players, but "literally" "worthless"?

Re: NBA 2K16 Roster Update Available Now, Details Included (1-7-16)

I just noticed that they dropped Eric Beldsoe... .isn't he out for the season?

You are mistaken. Blesdoe is 86 OVR and has been that rating for a month. He started the year at 82 OVR FWIW.

Re: NBA 2K16 Roster Update Available Now, Details Included (1-7-16)

It seems the T-Wolves rebounding ratings have a problem.

Pekovic was dropped to a 41 REB DEF rating despite not playing this season. Garnett is now a 45 in DEF REB, Dieng a 47.

Also, Zach LaVine has a 88 RDEF, Muhammad 81, Rubio 78 which doesn't make sense in my opinion.

Nice catch. These appear to be major data entry typos that 2K will likely fix upon review.

2K's rebound ratings have largely been PERFECT this season as this is the first year ever they have actually followed their own scales across the board. As such I would dismiss this as an aberration that should be rectified shortly (i.e. when it is noticed)... of course, if it's not, you know who to go after.

Can someone tell me if they fixed the Bucks court? Pretty sure I know the answer. Hoping to be surprised one of these days.

When Czar asked a while back to provide examples, I thought "finally, it's gonna happen".

Re: NBA 2K16 Roster Update Available Now, Details Included (1-7-16)

I don't know WHY I decided to test my theory. The Pacers DO have the biggest gap between their "Star" player and the next "best" player. Not only that, if you take Paul George off the Pacers team, they are or close to becoming the worse team in the league. Basically, the Pacers are the 2006-2007 Lebron-led Cavs team...which is an historic team, lol.

While I would consider all of the rotation players underrated...

76 Monta
76 Hill
76 Miles
75 Mahinmi
74 Hill
73 Stuckey
69 Allen
67 Budinger

...I wouldn't rate any of those players 80 OVR either. It's a testament to Vogel that the team lost Hibbert/West and is still 3rd defensively (I have not seen nearly enough to know how much credit lies at the feet of the likes of Monta Ellis and Jordan Hill, and 2K's cautious approach is not without precedent).

Re: NBA 2K16 Roster Update Available Now, Details Included (1-7-16)

Confusing update for just about everybody, I'll just complain about Bosh a little bit because I don't see how his rating could go down when he's having the best stretch of his Heat career. Over the last 10 games, he's averaging 25/8/3 on 50% FG and 45% from 3 and there's an even bigger sample size to how good he's been this season.

That's fine - he held an 85 OVR rating despite an especially mediocre November.

Re: NBA 2K16 Roster Update Available Now, Details Included (1-7-16)

Butler does stuff like this and gets reduced , he should be the 2nd highest SG in the game of the current era .

90 - James Harden
88 - Jimmy Butler
86 - Dwyane Wade
86 - DeMar DeRozan
85 - Klay Thompson

Good thing he is.

They moved away from a funneling players to the rim protector type defense, to one where they play the passing lanes and look for deflections. Poor man's version of the Miami Heat's swarming defense when they had Lebron.
