    A lot of the ratings for the players are just to make the team’s overall ratings higher or lower… For example, I am grizzlies fan and I know we are a laughing stock of the nba so to compensate for oj mayo and rudy gay’s higher rankings this year they dropped all our point guard’s ratings so our overall rating would remain low…but if you guys play 2k, you know its not about ratings its about how you play..

    You PLAY 2K bball games, not WATCH 2K bball games (big difference). Like Bill Clinton said to emphasize what really was at stake in ’92, “its the economy stupid!”. Likewise, what these Live trolls fail to realize is that the alleged 2K fanboy doesn’t judge a game by how it looks, we simply drool over the amazing gameplay that you can only experience while physically on the sticks. Hence, a befitting motto for the 08/09 bball games dropping this fall is “It’s the gameplay stupids”. I envy you anyone who has a BETA copy of this game. I wish these community outlets that have the game would keep the vids coming, but preface their uploads by adding the gamers two cents on how the game actually feels and plays, since I’m sure its orgasmic. Oooops, here comes the lectures from high-falutin’ posters about how idiotic it is to equate your love of 2K with crude sexual remarks. We get it.
    2K9 WE READY WE READY!
    2K9 WE READY WE READY!

    [quote comment="37243"]Yea I wish they still had Kenny Smith instead of this bum that throws out three word lines with no personality. Marc Jackson wouldve been a cool addition.[/quote]

    Yea Clark Kellogg is lame. Doug Collins would’ve been a better choice. Maybe 2K didn’t have the $ to get anyone else though.

    [quote comment="37272"]Anybody with any true basketball knowledge know’s that C. Paul was a beast last year and he clearly established himself as the top PG of the NBA. Before last season, CP3 and D. Willams was comparable PG’s, but with the year Paul had he clearly edged out Willams to being the best PG. That’s not to say that D.Willams couldn’t do like-wise and have a monster year this year. I think the 99 ratings is justified. Wasn’t the Hornets the #1 or #2 seed in the West? And they had the Spurs on the fence before losing in 7.

    To many dorks are complaining about the ratings without understanding the scope of which the ratings are being applied. Play the game first!! I think the ratings are clearly based off of how the player’s played in their recent games. 2K said these are LIVING ROSTERS.

    Meaning the ratings are based of the current, not past. And if that’s the case, then yes CP3 is a 99, and should be 5 pts ahead of D. Willams.[/quote]

    Here are the stats for both players last year..

    Paul 21pts 4rpg 11.6apg 2.7spg .488fgpct 56wins 2seed in west
    Williams 18pts 3rpg 10.5apg 1.1spg .507fgpct 54wins 4seed in west

    Both of there teams went out in the second round the team Williams lost to went to the finals. Paul is better but dont think he is that much better bro.. Paul is the best PG but not 99 worthy. He should be 95-96. and williams or nash shouldn be far behind. Thats all im sayin. And just bcuz we talk about the ratings doesnt mean were dorks. The title says PG ratings so we make comments on it.

    No im a actually a Mempis Tigers and Derick Rose fan, thats just based on what I have seen from him in summer league. From watching him as a true fan last year. Derick Rose is an isolation player, not a shoot of the dribble player, with real nba defenders..I think he will struggle..He’s going to be good though, plus he’s going to be sharing time with Mr. Heinrich.

    Doesn’t look very polished. They still have some plays where a player will walk to the spot that he is probably supposed to cut to. CPU AI is a bit weird with all that passing, it doesn’t really seem to be passing for a reason. Shaq to Amare, Amare to Shaq, Shaq to ….intercepted. I do like the offball AI I am seeing. It reminds me of 2k7.

    Did I hear Clark Kellog just repeat one of Kenny Smith’s lines?

    I’ll have to play the demo before I decide whether to get 2k9 or Live. If I can’t decide by then, I’ll just get both.

    Slam, if you’re referring to 2k he’s going to be amazing and against point guards the are sub par he will have good nights, but derick rose cant really pass well and I dont know if he will be able to break nba double teams, which he will face alot because of chicago’s lack of post game..but if he lives up to the hype..I wont be mad at all..

    you know i dont get the ratings… i mean a PG shouldnt be rated 99 when his close, medium, 3pt shot, handling, and passing isnt a 99… and as for the difference between paul and williams i think its warranted because theres not much of attribute difference between the two. Plus paul is a better pg than williams IMO. but hey, check the numbers from last year they dont lie.

    How come 2K and EA both have 365 days to produce a nba title, look at what EA does with the time and look at what 2k does with the time. By far this is one of the best ‘video games’ ever made. The Suns vs Lakers video is 2K at its finest. The presentation, the pace, the animation all near real life. I just played the NBA LIVE 09 demo…what trash!!! thanks for the demo…the guys that make NBA LIVE should be fired…
