To preface this article: Properly ranking approximately 400 NBA players is a task nigh-on impossible. How NBA 2K and other video games for other sports are able to dive into specific attributes of each player is astonishing. It’s clearly more than simply assigning a guy an 85 rating and being done with it. You need to grade individual aspects of scoring, defense, rebounding, intangibles, and everything else that goes into their game.
Yet every year, people complain about ratings. My favorite player isn’t rated high enough. Yours is too high. NBA 2K clearly hates my team.
I’m here to do the exact same. The Thunder ratings are amusing to me — not necessarily in a negative way, but more in a funny one. The full list of ratings and specialties can be found here and at the bottom of the article.
