The Houston Rockets made one of the worst trades in NBA history when they sent Chris Paul, two first-round picks, and two pick swaps to the Oklahoma City Thunder in exchange for Russell Westbrook.
I'd call it the worst trade of all time, but the deal that sent Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and a metric ton of picks to the Thunder for Paul George was worse. What kind of dark magic did Sam Presti employ at that time? How was he the only NBA general manager to understand the trade market five years ago?
I digress. The Rockets attached significant draft capital to the Thunder, and arguably didn't get the best player in the trade.
