    Calculation
    : Above ratings are based on the last and current NBA season. At the start of the NLL season (December) there is not enough data available to use the current season only. So the last season is taken into account also. With each update the data from last year will be given less and less weight until it is taken out completly.

    Initial patch: Last NBA Season + Current NBA Season
    Week 5 update: Last NBA Season*0.75 + Current NBA Season
    Week 10 update: Last NBA Season*0.50 + Current NBA Season
    Week 15 update: Last NBA Season*0.25 + Current NBA Season
    Week 20 update: Current NBA Season only

    Players need to have at least 15 games to qualify for derived ratings. Otherwise all of their ratings are taken from the outside source. This mostly happens for rookies, free-agents and long-term injured players.

    All players are first ranked per position in each of the above categories. The ranks are then summed up for each of the ratings and those total ranks are transformed into the rating ranges.

    The transformation is again done by position. The ranges used for each rating are taken from the 2k original patch, but extreme outliers are removed.

    The exact parameters for the transformation are determined at the beginning of the season, so that mean, median and variance correlate as much as possible with the original ratings. Those parameter will stay the same for the rest of the season.

  2. Qualitative Ratings : All remaining ratings are taken from an independent outside source.

Note : Ratings for players not (yet) included in the outside source will be determined by the league.
