NBA 2K15 Power Rankings (11/18/14)

As I said, I'm going to try and update this list daily to give the best idea of which NBA teams are in need of 2K roster adjustments.

FWIW, no attribute updates in 2K's 11/18 update, only rotation adjustments (notably Rose and Deng getting sidelined for their respective teams).

Simple Rating System (SRS); a rating that takes into account average point differential and strength of schedule. The rating is denominated in points above/below average, where zero is average.
