On September 24, US media Shot Coverage revealed that after Rockets guard Fred VanVleet suffered a torn cruciate ligament, a source revealed that the Rockets intend to sign veteran point guard Russell Westbrook. The difficulty is that the Rockets only have 1.25 million space to sign Westbrook, and the Rockets need to trade to clear up their cap space.

But these news made Houston media and Houston Rockets fans boycott. The first one was the Rockets' record of Jackson Gatling. He said: Putting aside the Rockets' 1.25 million salary space, Westbrook has never been our choice. Please stop these unnecessary discussions.

House media Biased Houston even tweeted directly: Anyone who wants to suggest we sign Westbrook again, just block it.

Hou media RedninetyFour wrote: Anyone who is concerned about basketball games should understand that Westbrook has never been a key figure that can solve the problem, so don't suggest him to come to the Rockets anymore.

Rockets fans: Many people are discussing the damn Westbrook back, but I think Amen can also play point guard. He is Westbrook when he was young, and we don't need the elderly Westbrook.

US media: Although Van Vleet's injury makes the Rockets' future uncertain, even signing Westbrook is not enough to regain its strength.

Rockets reporter Robert Kimbell: If Westbrook and Durant join forces in Miami again, I think it would be an interesting plot development.

Rockets fan: The Cavaliers have signed Killian Hayes, and even Hayes has returned to the league than Westbrook.

It is obvious that Houston media does not want to see Westbrook and Durant joining forces again. Besides, the Rockets currently only have 6 players to trade, and these 6 players are still the cornerstones, so the Rockets are unlikely to trade to clear the space.
