pretty close. i'd probably give jokic a 97 and move doncic up to the 96 group. otherwise looks pretty good.

more anti-Trae nonsense. Having him below Ja is a joke. Having him 3 pts behind him is ridiculous.

The only stat where Ja beat Trae all season was in NBA2k rating.

Do you still think Lebron is still a Top 5 or Top 10 player? Cause I think he some positions last few years.

Tatum should be 2. Having Durant and LeBron over him is a joke. Did they miss all of last season?

Admittedly I haven't played 2K in some years, but I'm wondering what attributes Ja excels so much at this point in his young career that equates him to being a 93.

Mostly atheticism, dunking & layups.

Jokic should be a 98
Giannis is good
Luka should be 96
Durant should be a 92
Kawhi shouldn't even be in the 90s
Neither should Morant

but wait, Jimmy Butler isn't a top ten NBA talent.....

oh wait sorry this isn't 2018 when he was even younger and better, but my GM said he wasn't gonna lead us to the NBA Finals....
5 years later, some absolute monster playoff games and 1 3 point shot from leading MIA there TWICE

curious where Jaylen Brown and Lavine fall on that list. are they top 20 at least?

This right there. Trae Young sets NBA records and somehow isn't top 10 in the NBA. Laughable. The best guard in the NBA is better than Luka and Ja Morant. The anti Trae bias is real and frankly pathetic.

Damn, Gerald Green would have been in the mid 80's in his prime then.

It's fine, whatever. Outside of the comically inflated legacy rating for Lebron, of course. Shades of NBA Live 2002 when they gave Wizards Jordan the same OVR rating as Shaq....

Jimmy > Tatum/Ja.

Jimmy is clearly a better player than both IMO

Jokic is a 97, LeBron a 93/94, Morant probably 89 or 90.

I need an explanation in writing regarding how LeBron is still above a 95 at this point.
