NBA 2K15 Roster Updates Keep Coming; Player Ratings Now Being Adjusted
Over the weekend I wrote about how well 2K Sports has been doing with roster updates for NBA 2K15 - a stark departure from how they have historically struggled to provide any semblance of sufficient post-release support.

That has finally changed with NBA 2K15. Rosters are being updated now on a daily basis and it involves more than just player movement and rotations. Adjustments are being made to accessories and shoes, injuries and returns are being reflected immediately, tendencies are being ch...
