I never really agree with these rankings entirely. It's good that the player rankings adjust according to a player's performance throughout the season via xbox live. What do you all think? Can't wait to get my hands on this game.

KG at an 80 seems awfully low.

[ChampKind]

Josh McRoberts at a 54? WHO MAKES THESE RATINGS?!?!?!

Whatever KG is, double it for your McRoberts number. EA Sports, you are run by clowns.

Am I the only one that thinks Kevin Durant at 91 is a little low?

Scores rebounds, doesn't pass, and defends "okay"...91 ought to be about right, and probably has the highest potential rating in the game.

i thought Durant ranked a little low. Not because he's a 91 (which is a pretty high mark in my opinion) but because his peers in Lebron James (97. is Lebron 6 overall points better than him?) and Carmelo Anthony (93... really?? you'd rather have Melo than Durant?) are ranked higher than him.

One season only, I take Melo.

[PosImpos]

Kobe @ 97 = WAY too high.  94 or 95 at best.

Yeah I definitely agree with this. Its less so the actual 91 that bothers me but more that Lebron is 6 points higher along with Carmelo being a 93

[mgent]

Dirk is the same as Kidd lol.

[galvinx10]

And John Wall at 81 and 5 points higher than Evan Turner is a little surprising to me

[Assassin70]

I don't care what the ratings are, I am going to create myself to back up Paul then take the C's on a Franchise 3peat.

And make my own version of Kobe how my.......

The rankings are set on how much of an overall player you are.

LeBron is easily 6 points better. He's a better passer and defender. His usage is the same, he scores at roughly the same efficiency and rate, but he also has a ridiculous assist percentage and fewer turnovers.

[guava_wrench]

It really doesn't make much sense to get upset about overall scores without analyzing the scores that are being averaged.

Like with Melo and Lebron. How is it surprising that Lebron is so many points above Melo? Melo has better post moves and a better jumper. Lebron is probably better at everything: on defense, on speed and jumping, on strength, on passing, on penetration.

Neither is that great from 3.
