It is not all the players. Just the top-20 at each positions.

I can tell already I will have to adjusts some of the Hawks players ratings. JJ deserve to be higher. Smoove ratings usually go up when he move to PF.

[pimp]

JJ and Smith are the only Hawkd players that made the ranking on that page.

They Jason Terry is better thsn JJ

But If you look at the team rankings, they have the Hawks the 17th best team, instead of in the bottom 5.

[warcore]

have the 2k8 ratings come out yet?

[AtLaS]

Yeah I posted them in the Lounge thread a while back. The ratings are complete garbage, how are Toronto and Orlando the 28th and 29th ranked teams? How is Terry better than JJ? Mehmet Okur is like the 17th ranked center, Brad Miller is 6th. There's a lot more horrible ratings too.

These guys obviously know nothing about basketball.

Josh Smith is only 2 points better than Boris Diaw.

would anyone trade Smith for Diaw straight up?

Of course that would be insanity. Post-Hernia surgery, JS was simply taking over games. Opposing guards/swing men who dared to drive the lane simply "turned around" when they saw JS lurking in the paint. Plus, JS was getting pretty much every rebound that didn't drop into the opposition's lap.

I can't wait to see Smoove do a Dream Shake on someone.

[Wurider05]

Hey guys 2K8 is going to blow live away.

[atl444atl444]

Hawks are ranked 17 overall by team tho, nice to see some respect.

[BusBoyIsBack]

Only two players on list but we're ranked in the top 17.

Must mean Acie Law and Al Horford got decent ratings

BTW, I will wager a lot of money that Durant won't be as good as Josh Smith next year

I really want to buy a new Basketball game, but I know alot of you guys have said you prefer the 2K series over NBA Live. Is the latest 2K out yet? If not, when will it be? I know the NBA Live game is either out now or to be out within the next week or so. I've seen the box at some of the local gameshops. Which is the better value. If I remember correctly, aren't the 2K series of games much cheaper than the NBA Live ones?

[Dnice]

I think 2k will be released Oct.1

Well, I picked up a used copy of NBA 2k7 at Gamestop this weekend for $14.00 I've played 4 games into the season and I'm impressed with the game play. I still haven't figured all the controls out as it's alot different than the NBA Live series. I do like it better so far though. Unfortunately, my used copy didn't have an instruction booklet so I'm kinda' learning on the fly. Anyone know how to throw an alley-oop?

This site is all you need

link

I use it whenever I rent a game that dosn't have instructions.

[Dragitoff]

Thanks for the link. Should help me out alot. I've started out 1-3 and I've only blocked 2 shots in 4 games and Smoove has none of them. My defense has been letting me down as well as attacking the basket. Maybe knowing how to do everything will help out.
