This past offseason, the Oklahoma City Thunder and Houston Rockets engaged in a trade that would rattle and just about shock everyone. The Thunder traded what was their franchise-player in Russell Westbrook to the Houston Rockets and received Chris Paul in return.
It shocked Houston Rockets’ fans seeing as we already had a ball-dominant franchise player in James Harden and were skeptical how they would work together, despite having played together before on many occasions, as well as being very close friends off the court.
Being midway through the season now, the Westbrook trade is seemingly playing out abundantly in the Houston Rockets’ favor.
