Predict the Rockets 2k rating

Rockets somehow always have many in the 70s when they should be in the 80s with the current rating system. I think Eric might indeed make it, though indeed Capela should, Tucker and Ryan too. Chris Paul should be 90, Harden high 90s but I think Harden 94 sounds right and Chris Paul will get 89 probably.

 

James Harden: 95
Chris Paul: 91
Trevor Ariza: 76
Ryan Anderson: 76
Clint Capela: 81
Nene: 77
Bobby Brown: 65
Zhou Qi: 68
PJ Tucker: 75
Luc: 74
Eric Gordon: 79 (BUT MORE BADGES THEN IN 2k17)
Troy Williams: 72
Tarik Black: 73
Isaiah Taylor: 65
Chinanu Onuka: 68

 

Spoiler

James Harden: 93-94
Chris Paul: 91
Carmelo Anthony: 87
Eric Gordon: 79-80
Trevor Ariza: 77-78
Clint Capela: 76-77
PJ Tucker: 75-76
Nene: 75
Ryan Anderson: 75 (but goes to 65 at home)
Luc: 72-73
Tarik Black: 70-71
Troy Williams: 68-69
Bobby Brown: 67
Chinanu Onuka: 67
Isaiah Taylor: 65-66
Zhou Qi: 64

 

I read the Rockets have the highest rated backcourt.

 

James Harden: 95
Chris Paul: 91
Trevor Ariza: 78
CARMELO ANTHONY: 84
Clint Capela: 81
Nene: 78
Bobby Brown: 72
Zhou Qi: 59
PJ Tucker: 77
Luc: 74
Eric Gordon: 80
Troy Williams: 67
Tarik Black: 69
Isaiah Taylor: 62
Chinanu Onuka: 62

 

Not a bad first attempt. I agree with you mostly although I would think Harden ends up a 94 or 95 and Paul a 90. Other then that - I think it's mostly spot on.

...the other question is what is the TEAM's rating?

 

James is definitely a 95+, book it.

 

James Harden: 96
Chris Paul: 92
Trevor Ariza: 75
Ryan Anderson: 76 / Carmelo Anthony: 86
Clint Capela: 81
Nene: 72
Bobby Brown: 64
Zhou Qi: 62
PJ Tucker: 75
Luc: 73
Eric Gordon: 81
Troy Williams: 72
Tarik Black: 70
Isaiah Taylor: 62
Chinanu Onuka: 62

 

Capela is a 79.

 

Yet, the overall team ratings will somehow rank the Rockets behind the Thunder because computer algorithms can't deny the stat-padding wizardry of Brodie and his new bestie Georgie.

 

From the ratings that have been released so far it feels that everyone is a bit elevated. As an example, I saw that Beverley was rated at 79, and in the past he would be around 75 or 76. With that trend, I would have to guess that Gordon and Capela would be in the 80's. Ariza would have to be close too.

Harden will be either 95 or 94. Leonard got 95. It is expected Westbrook will get 95. It will be interesting to see if Paul stays in the 90's.

 

not so fast. the developers have said that there are only four players with 95+ rating this year. We already know three of them (LBJ, Durant, Kawhi ), so the one remaining spot is reserved for either Westbrook or Harden. Since Westbrook just won the MVP, my guess is that Harden comes short of 95 mark.

 

Yup. Feels like it will go that way. [MediaConspiracy]

NBA2K docking Harden 1 point for being NBA Live cover athlete. I see you!

 

I think I saw that Harden was 94 forgot what Paul was I believe 90-91

 

Melo got 84, not on this list. But below is a nice list of the reveals so far. Just noticed on it Capela got a 79.
