How Houston Rockets fans and analysts react to a trade rumor for star Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown is not going to be the same as how Boston fans would react to it, and for obvious reasons. Fans of both ball clubs have ties to the players they have watched suit up for at times many years, and each franchise is at a distinct point of their contention arc. And while analysts SHOULD be impartial, they are not always — and even when they try to, they tend to know the players they cover better than those they do not.
Add things like this up, and rumbles about trades like we have been hearing regarding Brown and the Rockets will be received in different ways. And The folks behind the “Locked On Rockets” YouTube channel put together a clip from a recent podcast analyzing those trade rumors from a Rockets point of view.
