With training camps opening across the NBA, the Houston Rockets and Washington Wizards decided to pull off a blockbuster trade involving John Wall and Russell Westbrook that caught many by surprise.
After trade talks appeared to have broken down, Westbrook and Wall finally got their wishes to be dealt. Westbrook lasted only one season with the Rockets after getting traded by the Oklahoma City Thunder while Wall hasn't played since 2018 but was looking to depart his current situation before the season started.
Many took to Twitter to give their thoughts on the trade and tried to give their prediction as to which team came out on top.
