2K Sports has released the player ratings for each team’s starting five for the game that will be released in early October. Not only did 2K getting the Knicks’ most likely starting unit wrong, it might have also slighted some Knicks fans with their ratings. 2K Sports counts Ray Felton, Wilson Chandler, Danilo Gallinari, Anthony Randolph, and Amar’e Stoudemire as the starting five, with Amar’e obviously leading the pack (86). The other four are profiled as fairly mediocre players: Felton (73), Chandler (74), Gallinari (72), and Randolph (70). Not sure whose idea it was to consider Chandler the second-best starter, but oh well.

For some comparison, Kobe, LeBron, and D-Wade share the honor of top dog with a 97 rating. Potential-but-probably-not Knicks Chris Paul and Carmelo Anthony clock in at 95 and 93, respectively. Tony Parker, AKA point guard plan B, is a 78.
