NBA Live 10 Player Ratings
by 
NBA Live 10 has had an extensive ratings system the past few years with a ton of different categories which was one way to differentiate the players. This year the DNA updates will have more of an affect on the ratings as real world performance will affect them on a fluid basis. I’ve gone through and taken screenshots of the current rosters for each team with their respective overall ratings displayed. Keep in mind that the rosters are not completely accurate and that EA has assured that a roster update will be out by release day. Throughout the season the rosters and ratings will be updated on a daily basis thanks to Live 365 and the Dynamic DNA.
Continue on for the screens of the rosters and ratings. Check them out and feel free to leave your thoughts in the comments!

2K 10 IS PRIMED FOR THE ASS KICKING OF LIVE!!
October 2, 2009 at 3:34 pm
Good stuff pasta
October 2, 2009 at 3:35 pm
I bought 2k10 PC for 19.99 and I'll take ps3 LIVE for $25 lol it has so many cool features and it's so pretty, but I'll wait for 2011 LIVE, cuz neither of these games are gonna warrant $60 imo. Live has only auto post up, and my eyes are on fire when I play that demo it's like I'm starring at the sun, smh. No doubt in my mind this is the last time 2K trumps LIVE. I think 2K is done next year they'll get bought out, LIVE only needs to tweak gameplay more and they are the clear leader in the clubhouse. 1K's not going to start over their build at this point, they don't have the resourses.

rasheed wallace an 80!! he should be like a 72….im a detroit fan and watched him be lazy and jack up stupid threes last year,trust me he wont be as spectacular as you boston fans might think
October 2, 2009 at 5:58 pm
no athletes try when they are on bad teams bro, they play stupid and bad so they can get onto a sweet team
October 2, 2009 at 7:05 pm
ur crazy Sheed is beast.
but yea h
October 2, 2009 at 3:54 pm
Which game is more fun PP? Have you had enuff time w/both games to warrant an opinion yet??? I'm kinda on the fence after playing the Live demo and watching your 2k vids. Also, does Live still have Dunk contest & 3-pt Shootout??????????? TY-
October 2, 2009 at 4:16 pm
how in the hell is lebron james faster than derek rose…?????
October 2, 2009 at 4:29 pm
how is lebron james a 99 in speed hes not as fast as wade thats crazy
October 2, 2009 at 5:40 pm
LeBron is arguably the fastest player in the NBA. He's not as quick as Wade or Rose, but he IS faster.
October 2, 2009 at 6:06 pm
are you serious he can beat him in a foot race running backwards!
October 2, 2009 at 6:21 pm
because bron is fast as heck dude do your math rose might be fast in dribbling and first step and might accel fast but speed no
October 2, 2009 at 6:33 pm
There's a difference between quickness and speed. In a foot race, 100 yards I think Lebron would beat out Rose. In terms of quickness, change of pace, yes Rose is faster.
October 2, 2009 at 9:18 am
I’m liking these ratings, they look better than 2K10’s. It’ll be interesting how the stars/role players play.
October 2, 2009 at 4:26 pm
Thanx..everything looks nice.
October 2, 2009 at 4:27 pm
MAR: If Rose and LeBron took off from the endline, do you think there is any way that Rose could take a layup without LeBron swatting it to kingdom come? There's not a single player in the league who could outrun LeBron in 90 feet.
I'm not sure what that means for speed ratings in a video game, but I don't have a problem with LeBron being equal to anyone in speed.
October 3, 2009 at 8:14 pm
Wade MIGHT have something to say about that.
October 2, 2009 at 4:49 pm
Nic Batum rating is a bit low IMO should be maybe low 70's
November 4, 2009 at 9:59 am
he plays very well in the game though, knocks down 3's, gets rebounds, and can do it all pretty much he plays like a high 70 low 80 ratings
October 2, 2009 at 4:49 pm
Lebron 99 Speed. & Rose 95 Speed. Hope they change this.But im Not Worried.
October 2, 2009 at 4:50 pm
lol at Lebron and Wade having 99 speed
October 2, 2009 at 6:18 pm
99 speed wow………………………………
October 2, 2009 at 5:04 pm
why is jamal crawford on the knicks?? lol wtf
October 2, 2009 at 5:12 pm
Thats Joe Crawford Dumb Ass
October 2, 2009 at 5:42 pm
LMAOOOOOOO…hilarious!
October 2, 2009 at 5:34 pm
thats JORDAN Crawford
October 2, 2009 at 6:17 pm
No, JOE Crawford from UK
October 2, 2009 at 5:37 pm
Kirilenko better then both Okur and Brewer? I wonder if EA has ever watched a Utah Jazz game. My god.
October 2, 2009 at 6:23 pm
look at the attubute u idiot hes a defender and he does has offense okur is offense not defense brewer has no jump shot but defense and cant pass all ratings come into play learn the game dude
October 2, 2009 at 5:47 pm
AK47 is sweeter than brewer maybe not Okur, is there a way to hit a runner in the lane in this game or is it just layups and dunks when u get in tight
October 2, 2009 at 5:54 pm
Derozan with 89 speed ? wow
October 2, 2009 at 5:56 pm
I noticed that there are a quite a bit of players whose overalls are 68, speed=68 & agility=74. I'm guessing all those are placeholder players until the LIVE365 takes effect. Then you'll get their similar player models in weeks ahead.
October 2, 2009 at 7:54 pm
correct
October 2, 2009 at 5:59 pm
Okay, Thaddeus Young as a 69 is a joke.
Considering a rookie Jrue Holiday is a 68
T-Young is the second best player on the sixers next to Iguodala whos an 84
T-young should be in the mid-high 70's AT LEAST.
October 2, 2009 at 6:35 pm
Better than Dalembert and Brand as well?
October 2, 2009 at 7:24 pm
True and I'm a Sixers Fan…T.Young At least 72-75 rating they killing my young boy
October 3, 2009 at 12:59 am
Yea i know and they got lou williams at a 64 thats crazy
October 2, 2009 at 6:13 pm
none of this really matter cuz they have the dna thing
October 2, 2009 at 6:44 pm
ok some of the ratings are on point but some of the speeds is wrong like heck first wade and bron are 99 thts wrong for one wade should be 95 bron should be 96 they got barbosa right his speed is 99 thats him rose is 95 thats him chris paul spedd is 99 no it should be 96 now tony parker should be 99 he fast as heck and nash should be 94 so its just speed we seen but they shell fix thou out the season people not a big deal and biggie
October 2, 2009 at 7:06 pm
oops.. but yea he was kinda lazy last year.
sad to see him leave my pistons though
October 2, 2009 at 7:56 pm
Gamedaily.com just posted it's review of NBA Live 10. They gave it a 9 out 10.
October 2, 2009 at 8:29 pm
Ratings
Anthony Randolph: 66
Mikki Moore: 67
Honestly? What the hell is going on over there?
October 2, 2009 at 9:25 pm
Devin Harris' speed is a 95 while Barbosa's is a 99? Plus Arenas is just as good as DH with an 84 & Nash is a 88? WTF EA Sports? It's not 2006 anymore. LoL
October 2, 2009 at 3:02 pm
Jarvis Hayes is the next to worst player on the Nets at a 61?. He was one of the best reserves in the league last season. And he sure as hell did a lot more than Hassell, Najera, or Simmons. He shot the lights out & played in all of New Jersey’s clutch situations. And no way in hell is Najera faster than Sean Williams. LoL
October 2, 2009 at 3:59 pm
I bought 2k10 PC for 19.99 and I'll offer $25 for LIVE ps3, lol, it has so many cool features and it's so pretty, but I'll wait for 2011 LIVE, cuz neither of these games are gonna warrant $60 imo. Live has only auto post up, and my eyes are on fire when I play that demo it's like I'm starring at the sun, smh. No doubt in my mind this is the last time 2K trumps LIVE. I think 2K is done next year they'll get bought out, LIVE only needs to tweak gameplay more and they are the clear leader in the clubhouse. 2K's not going to start over their build at this point, they don't have the resourses. If 2k got bought out , the only scary part would be EA would have a monopoly on football and basketball allowing for slacking. LIVE 10 8.0-8.25 Rating, 2K10 8.75 Rating.
October 2, 2009 at 3:37 pm
Both games have the auto-post, however its been stated that Live is patching the mechanic back in due to demand.
October 2, 2009 at 4:29 pm
Both games have auto-post, but we know Live is patching the manual mechanic back in due to popular demand.
October 2, 2009 at 6:14 pm
Wow I didn't know that. That's good news. Kinda reminds me FN4 how they took button punching out only to add it back. Pasta are the National teams still in the game?
October 2, 2009 at 7:18 pm
Hey pasta, where's the finals videos just like the ones you done on 2k? And can you post your initial impressions on live since you posted em so fast on 2k? I'm stumped because I read your impressions on 2k and they were all negative, but a lot of people actually thinks that 2k is better so I was just wanting to get your impressions on live. Thanks
October 2, 2009 at 11:34 pm
Wow… Im a Celtics fan, but how is Lester Hudson, a rookie who was picked 3 to last in the draft, a 68 when DeMar DeRozan a 69, Terrence Williams a 68, Teague a 65, James Harden a 68, and Tyreke Evans a 69?
October 3, 2009 at 4:22 am
can we get some fiba ratings
October 2, 2009 at 11:48 pm
P.mills (patrick Mills) 67 (=
Some of the rookie ratings should be upped by like 2 or 3.
October 3, 2009 at 11:51 am
darren collison isnt a small forward neither patrick beverly im pretty sure they would get carved out at sf.
October 3, 2009 at 4:46 pm
I have never understood how NBA Live deterimes their SPEED rating……
Is it just me or is it ludacris that Lamarcus Aldrige is just as fast as Darren Collison (a point guard)??
Why is it that so many guards are so slow? THe fact that Collison is a rookie would be understandable if were his shooting or playmaking ability, but SPEED is soemthing that is pretty much already proven and doesnt have to progress or be determined. Come on EA
October 3, 2009 at 9:11 pm
Ryan Gomes went from a 71 to a 63 and had better stats this season??
October 4, 2009 at 5:10 pm
dirk is respected in live
makes me think of getting live since in 2k,he is underrated as crazy and the mavs look good in live so i may roll wid live dis year
October 5, 2009 at 4:50 am
wtf ginobilli 82 biggest r u kidding me
October 5, 2009 at 4:53 am
ginobilli should be at 87 or 86 the 82 should be a huge mistake
October 5, 2009 at 7:01 pm
this game hates on Brandon Rush 64 is rediculous! these ratings are bad. I also saw some players playing wrong position…ie Lester Hudson SF??????
October 8, 2009 at 7:39 am
A lot of players who were not signed before the ea sports cut off date are all rated 68 speed 68 acl 74 and are small forwards will we get these players still.
October 17, 2009 at 6:04 am
WOW… these ratings suck!!
Example 1: LA Laker – Andrew Bynum 79 and Derek Fisher 80.. It should be Fisher 71, Bynum 83
Example 2: GS Warriors – Anthony Randolph 64… The kid is a freak, he should be 80!
Example 3: Phila 76ers – Thaddeus Young (2nd in pts last season) should be 82!
I HOPE THAT LIVE UPDATES HELP THIS GAME OUT OR I WONT BE BUYING IT… especially if DEREK FISHER is going to drop 30pts on me hahahahaha
November 3, 2009 at 1:26 am
Live is way better than 2K this year. 2K is just the same game every year with updated rosters…. no new gameplay features every year. Atleast live adds them. I wish live would bring back freestyle control from NBA live 07 were you got the rank 1,2, and 3 highflyer and so on.
November 18, 2009 at 9:48 pm
devin harris should have speed 99, after all he did make a guiness world record for dribbling a ball across a basketball court
