Russell Westbrook is ranked 10th best point guard - Skip & Shannon react I NBA I UNDISPUTED

USA Today’s NBA writers compiled their top point guards going into this season. Steph Curry, Damian Lillard and Kyrie Irving took the top three spots, and Russell Westbrook was all the way down at number ten. The Los Angeles Lakers' newest addition found himself down in double-digits behind both Ben Simmons at nine and De’Aaron Fox at eight. Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe discuss their level of concern that LeBron James' new point guard is ranked that low.

Skip every time Shannon get him “We’re not talking about my guy”

[@D00MTR33]

The amount of hate Russ gets is unreal. Having him at 10 is way too low, there's no way Ben Simmons should be ahead of him. The media (Skip, Colin, SAS) have really turned me into a fan of Russ and I hope he proves them wrong.

There were lots of great players putting up lots of great numbers but the only one that matters is the number of rings.

[@billpap.9669]

@@thebenc1537 rings exclusively don't define greatness & legacy. They just add to it. Russ right now is on a level below some champions who are obviously better than him all time (from MJ & Lebron to Wade & Isiah) but he's on the same tier as Iverson, Nash, Malone, Stockton, Barkley, Ewing, Reggie, CP3, Melo, Dame, Harden and others. See what I'm saying??

[@thebenc1537]

@@billpap.9669 Yes those players were great but there is a big reason nobody talks about someone like Dominique Wilkins anymore. All of those players are second tier, some even lower (Melo). Rings separate the great from the all time great. The list of great players could be very long but the list of winners isn't. There is a huge difference between putting up numbers and winning championships. That list you gave all deserve to be noted as great players (except Melo) but that's all they were. None of them had what it takes to win. But to be fair Jordan stripped many great players of rings they would have had without Jordan in the league.

Russel Westbrook is my favorite player, I’m not saying he’s the best point guard but 10th?!!! This is pure blatant disrespect!! He averaged dann near 12 assist on the bum wizards, these mofos been bricking lay ups and he still averaged 12 assists on this bum squad. Simmons over Russ? Skip wants a guy that’s unplayable in the 4th quarter because he’s afraid of attempting any shots? Lol! His last season on the rockets they was a stretch from Christmas until Mid February where Westbrook was basically the best player in the league, but casuals won’t understand.

Russ was one of the reasons that the wizards were bums & also who tf cares about the assists it clear as day that he pads his stats he only cares about his numbers which is hella selfish 💀
