It took a few years of recruiting for the Houston Rockets to finally acquire Carmelo Anthony, but the two sides decided to part ways after just a few weeks.
Anthony seemed to comply with the requests from the coaching staff, but ultimately he just didn’t fit in with the team’s vision going forward.
However, some close to the organization feel as if Melo was treated unfairly. A source close to the Rockets, who won just 4 of their first 10 games, said the team put too much of the blame for their slow start on Anthony, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic.
