Over-rated players?

[oboeguy]

So I'm playing the Nets against the Rockets and I find that Yao and Steve "Franchise" seem a bit over-rated. Yao consistently running over 'Zo? Ridiculous. Shooting over him, sure, but running over? Nuh-uh. Along the same lines, Francis consistently shoving J Kidd out of the way on the way to the hoop? Double nuh-uh.

Maybe I just suck at D, but hey, that's how it feels.

Oh, and on the Raptors, a guy named "Bateer"... I never heard of him and he pushes 'Zo around like Shaq does to everybody. Nonsense! I can't say the 'Zo is under-rated, because he's pretty effective for me, so I conclude over-rated opponent.

How about over-rated teams? How are the Knicks rated higher than the Nets? What a joke!

Anybody else find some players over-rated in some ways with the default rosters?

yah. ur right. mengke bateer... chinese player also from mongolia. im using the rockets as dynasty and its so cool to have yao... i even traded some players to complete the "great wall" of china. but its more on a 1 man "wall" for yao. wang zhi zhi and mengke doesnt score much.

But hey isn´t there an editor in NBA live 2004

Editor? What, you want me to change their ratings? I'm saying that the default rosters are off for certain players (duh, always happens) and pointing out a couple, that's all. I'll wait for the NLSC rosters to come out before striking out on my own.

But seriously, Francis bumped me out of bounds from quite a distance... and no foul.

Edit: I did win the game, though, with J Kidd isloating on Francis for a 12-footer with 2 secs left. Nothin' but net!
