The Houston Rockets should look to execute a trade of Russell Westbrook to the New York Knicks, as the move would be a huge win for everyone involved.
Russell Westbrook will almost certainly be the scapegoat for Houston Rockets’ failures. It wasn’t his fault the Rockets lost to the Los Angeles Lakers, as the Lakers are really good, but his acquisition sent the Rockets down a rabbit hole of no return.
Chris Paul and a boatload of draft picks were shipped out for the walking triple-double, and Clint Capela was later dealt for more picks in exchange for Robert Covington, all so Westbrook could be the x-factor.
