Was discussing this on another forum, I figured I would post it here for discussion.
With strength rating, I tend to compare it with players of a similar position. I use my own rosters and judge very tough. I have a formula that combines height, weight, and play style when determining strength.

DC, once you get time with the game, are you going to post your own slider set? Or do you use Playmakers' or someone else's off of OS?

Depends on what I feel the game needs after extensive playing. That can take weeks and dozens of games. People are so quick to change sldiers after a few games but you have to rememeber basketball is a sport where random things happen. So be patient is all I say.
Last year I used Pared's sliders on OS

Also rememeber, in 2K, strength determines how easy it is for you to back down an opponent in the post. Also determines how hard it is for someone to back you down.
I know I will get questions about Dwight being so low, but I think many of us are fooled by his body. Yes he is strong which is why I have him so high. Don't look at the number, look at the positioning. Anyone that is above Dwight is arguably stronger or just as strong, or in 2K basketball terms.
Anyone listed about Dwight, he would have trouble with them if they defended him in the post. Cept for probably Big Baby and Caracter (who I need to fix and take into account their short nature). So as I said, that is just a preliminary list.
I might actually have to bump Dwight, but for the sake of the game, and him struggling in the post offensively in real life, I might keep him the same to replicate that.

And folks crying about overall ratings in 5........4..........3........2........1
That is why I send 2K the idea EVERY YEAR to get rid of overall ratings because they do nothing but make their own in house roster maker's work that much more fabricated. If 2K Insider didn't have to FORCE overall ratings, maybe his work would be more respectable.
But as long as he is told to, "Make Kobe a 97. Make LeBron a 97, but make sure Jordan is a 99" you can't possibly think we will get FAIR and ACCURATE and CONSISTENT ratings across the board.
It is almost as if people tune us out when we explain to them that overall doesn't mean X is BETTER than Y. They just see numbers and have pointless arguments. It kills me when it is done for Bigs vs Smalls.
But I won't address it anymore.

Not really. He is an athletic project that really isn't that skilled. Athletic ratings favor wing players more than they do bigs. He isn't strong and he doesn't have great offensive or defensive awareness ratings.
Don't take it personal but his game doesn't translate into high video game marks.
Right now, he is simply an athletic freak that scores MOST of his buckets off dunks, put-backs, or athletic plays.

I know its only 2 points, but how in the world does Tim Duncan get a 90 and Dwight gets an 88?.. Tim is one of the all-time greatest but those years are behind him. Eh, whatever.
Also I love D-Wade (maybe not so much when the season starts) but I dont think he's on the level of supremacy that LeBron and Kobe are. IMO it should be Lebron- 97, Kobe- 96, D-Wade- 95. I know its only a measly point but when you give them all the same rating I think its giving D-Wade a little too much credit.
LBJ is exactly the player you want in an NBA videogame, theres not much he cant do on a basketball court. Therefore I think he should be rated the highest, he's not necessarily the best in MY opinion but he's definitely the most talented.

Tim Duncan probably has higher Offensive (by a lot if done correctly) and Defensive awareness (Help side defense where Duncan ranks on the all time list) ratings. That can be two points right there. Not to mention mid range jumpshooting but that might not factor THAT much into the equation.
So yea, you were right at first. It is ONLY 2 points.

i totally understand what your saying because i watched alot of SL but SL means nothing in the regulat season he has to prove himself first........madden had vick w/ crap ratings & after he was named the starter i think he went from a 75 to 87 or something like that mcgee just needs to prove himself when it counts & im sure the good folks @ 2k operation sports will boost him up inside of an update
