At the start of the conference semifinals, the NBA began to allow players to invite their family members into the bubble site in Orlando, Fla.
Despite playing well statistically in this series, Westbrook struggled greatly in Game 5, as his entire team.
After losing Game 4 110-100, reports surfaced that there was a lot of yelling and shouting in the Rockets’ locker room after what had transpired.
With head coach Mike D’Antoni’s future with the team reportedly in question, the Rockets’ future doesn’t look nearly as bright as it did last summer.
