Rashidi's NBA 2K15 Point Guard Ratings

As per the last 12 years, I am working on an NBA 2K roster that holds each player statistically accountable to the scales and formulas that 2K Sports bases their own ratings around.  More so than years past, this was intensely stats based, as I was able to crack a few more formulas.

All player attributes have been edited except for the following: Passing IQ, Pass Perception, Shot Contest, and Lateral Quickness.

With the top 70 Point Guards effectively completed I am 20% done with the roster and am hoping to be finished by the NBA draft (schedule permitting).

Editor's Note: This is currently a bare-bones post that will be updated over time with explanations and insights.

Roster can be downloaded on PS4
Search 2K database for username "Real2KInsider"
Roster name is currently "Rashidi"

All feedback and questions are welcome.
