NBA all-time great Clyde Drexler recently explained his decision to force a trade from the Portland Trail Blazers to the Houston Rockets.
Before Clyde Drexler joined the Houston Rockets, he had already immersed himself as one of the greatest players in NBA history. Drexler led the Portland Trail Blazers to the NBA Finals twice and was named to eight All-Star teams during his time in Portland.
Drexler received MVP consideration during the 1987-88 season and was an MVP finalist during the 1991-92 season, finishing as the runner-up to only Chicago Bulls legend Michael Jordan.
