  NBA Today did not appear to be watching the majority of Los Angeles Lakers 2K23 MT or Minnesota Timberwolves basketball this season. Cassidy Hubbarth, Los Angeles Sparks power forward Chiney Ogwumike, Matt Barnes and Brian Windhorst have discussed their perceptions of NBA 2K doing Russell Westbrook dirty by releasing their latest player ranking for the troubled L.A. point guard. The most recent edition of the NBA 2K23 video game NBA 2K23. is released today.

  
  

  Westbrook was given an "mere" score of 78 in the overall rating, which is one notch below the 79 netted by new teammate (and Westbrook's most likely replacement the team's new starting center) Patrick Beverley. Cassidy Hubbarth called the move "petty," which leads one to wonder: did Cassidy Hubbarth see the damage the healthy Russell Westbrook did to the Lakers on the floor last season?Barnes, a 15-year pro who played two seasons playing for the Kobe Bryant/Pau Gsol Lakers reported that he hosted a 2K launch event recently, and that Westbrook's score was the most discussed 2K23 news item of the night. "I thinkthat even though Russ went through an offseason last year, I think his ranking is too low," Barnes opined. I believe Pat Bev is right there... a score of 79 is an excellent one, but Russ's ranking is just too low."

  
  

  If you believe that 79 is solid, shouldn't 78 also be solid? Beverley is a great defensive player and is a great three-point shooter. Westbrook might be a better passer (at at the very least, in the initial 40 minutes of an actual game) and rebounder, stats which a video game would award, but he's absolutely not the "better" competitor than Beverley at this stage in their respective careers. "Russ, as much as you question your game and you criticize his weaknesses, I believe that he's still an effective player," Ogwumike contended on the show. "

  
  

  He'll show up, and he'll get you at least 20 [pointspossibly 8 or so assists? rebounds? unclear]. "Of course, a lot of this production is a direct result of Westbrook refusing to acknowledge or even ignoring large-mouthed teammates, and thus causing low-percentage heaves in traffic. In the role of the center of an offense this 6-foot-3" UCLA product is now an inefficient obstacle to his team's success.

  
  

  The demise of Westbrook has come quickly. He was a fringe All-Star during his season of 2019-20 NBA season with James Harden's Houston Rockets. But that kind of model for Westbrook is no longer in use. His flaws outweigh his strengths. Sure, he puts in some impressive numbers (though even then , the numbers are decreasing), but he is likely to be better utilized in the future to serve as an spark plug from the bench facing off against opponents' second units but not as a starting.

  
  

  The perception that the national media has of Westbrook is still more dominant than his actual night-in, night-out contribution should show. I'm not the first person to do this however, it's like the fall of Allen Iverson, who bristled at the thought of being off the bench until the point that he was out of 2K23 MT Buy the game entirely.There's plenty of time for Russell Westbrook to avoid the same fate if he's willing to make that change.
