Heading into the 2019-20 NBA season, the Houston Rockets knew it was going to take time for the Russell Westbrook experiment to flourish. Through the 32 games in which Westbrook has played, there have been positives and negatives of having the 2017 MVP on the roster, as the Rockets have seemingly won games because of Russ and lost games in part due to Russ’s propensity of taking 3-pointers.
But should the Rockets already want to abort the mission on the Westbrook experiment? The question is raised only because of the recent rumors of Russ being available on the trade block, which was first mentioned by Ryen Russilo of The Ringer, which was explained on his podcast.
