Rookie ratings

Thu Nov 04, 2004 12:51 pm

There are some bad rookie ratings in the game, for example
Telfair ball handling-70
spped-70

I think that should be bumped up to the 80's or so.

Josh Smith fatigue-22
Ben Gordon speed-55

And numerous bad ball handling ratings and shooting ratings. I think you should go through and just take a look at all rookie ratings and tweak them. :wink:

For the PC release they fixed some ratings.
Ben Gordan is now 80 for speed. But Tyson Chandler went down from 86 inside to 70 :!:

Oh and rooks like Ariza and Iguadala lose the ball every time they do a spin move or crossover :(

I noticed Ariza's dribble was 65 but his speed and qickness-awfull at 55 or 56
Im guessing a lot of rookies r like that.Plzz tweak them

I've noticed those ratings too. I'll definitely review player ratings for the initial release and as usual throughout the season, especially the rookies.

well i agree with lebron being lower and closer to mello, but yao at 80 is fine, hes not playing better than melo. baron i think is find where he is. francis should be pumped up a little bit but not into the 90s. ithink vince should be taken a lot. in dynasty mode he always somehow ends up averaging like 25 /6/6 or something like that.

Big men also generally have lower passing, dribbling, speed, stealing and quickness ratings which affects their overall rating.

LeBron is so much better than Melo... He does something other than shoot the ball all the time... He fills the stats... Melo rarely gets any steals or blocks or assists for that matter... And he hasn't been on top of his game in real life either...

Melo is more of a scorer, Bron is more of a whole package... 4 point difference in overall ain't that large you know.

Vince is rated too high... He should barely be 80 with the way he's playing... Or played last season. He's lost some of his aerial ability and thus taken the sharpest edge off of his game.

Baron should be 90... I'm with you on that one. He can shoot, he can rebound, he can pass and he can steal... Only thing wrong with him is that he's 6'3"...

Rookie ratings will always be wrong! You can't totally predict how each one of them will play when you are trying to set the ratings in august... If they released the game like january, then the ratings would prolly be better on. Thank god for the NLSC pathes... And the guys who do the leg work on it.

last season vince put up 23/5/5 thats not bad for 90 rated and secondly, this year vince stats are down because offense isn't just around him, its a bunch-oriented offense, where the one with the hottest streak, or one with the best shot avail. gets the shot. And they are winning aren't they so I think Vince should be pumped upto around 90 or 91 in the game from 88... his defense specially should be increased, he's been playin' amazing compared to his last couple of years on defense.

Plus you have to consider that vince is only playing 30 min a game. If he was playing around 40 min, he would put up numbers.

Don't blame vince blame the coach.

Lets be honest Lebron is a much better player than carmelo. He does everything better than carmelo. I think hes under rated in the game to be honest. Hes all around game is so much improved from last year.
