NBA2K15: 10 Players That Need Downgraded

To the 10 that made the list, it's nothing personal, you were just horrible last time out.

By Finlay Hutchison /

It's that time of the year again. Which players can we name and shame? The same two teams from last season may have appeared in the Finals, but not everyone has been so consistent. Certain paradigms must be taken into consideration when tearing apart these players. Last year's NBA2K14 grades are most important but other factors such as salaries, team performance and age must also be accounted for. The guys at NBA2K15 will certainly be doing the same. Ultimately, to the 10 that made the list, it's nothing personal, you were just horrible last time out.

10. Rajon Rondo

Although his return from injury was met with great optimism, Rondo's comeback in 2014 was a huge disappointment. Post Rondo's return, the Celtics actually had a worse record. With Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett moving on, fans accepted the 2013-4 season could be a transitional one. However, as the Celtic€™s star player, no one expected Rondo to be so benign. Perhaps the assists machine was missing the help of his 2 aforementioned partners in crime. Last year's rating of 90 is surely going take a hit but with a host of stars available in free agency, Rondo could once more find a scoring machine to which he can attach himself to.
