If I were Russell Westbrook I would be upset with the situation involving the Oklahoma City Thunder, as they have seemed to abort the mission of competing for a title. They’ve been rumored to be shopping Steven Adams and they’ve just traded away Paul George. It would seem as though OKC is trying to blow up their team to get under the luxury tax, which doesn’t necessarily align with a player entering his 12th season. The Houston Rockets, by comparison, swung and missed on Jimmy Butler, who chose to sign with the Miami Heat.
