Ratings can be pretty volatile and depend on a bunch of things, making them difficult to use in evaluating players to buy. I think it is much easier to only use attributes to evaluate a player (plus look at their fouls) until you are more experienced, as any perceived difference in rating is more likely going to be because of some hidden circumstance than because one player is better.

In this specific case, there is a big enough difference between a 7 and a 12 rating that most likely explanation is variance/sample size.

I would say he either faced better competition in the 11 games as PF, or his game shape was worse.
Also, he played 10 more minutes per game as PF. That will lower ratings as his stamina wears down.

If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.
