Well, that review didn’t take long. Just a few days after it was reported that Houston Rockets GM Daryl Morey’s job was “under review”, Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta said yesterday on his weekly CNBC segment that Morey will in fact be back. Fertitta said:
“It begins and end with the general manager. That’s why you have a basketball operations team. They’ll make a recommendation to me. I’m the sign-off guy. I wouldn’t know how to interview a basketball coach. Daryl Morey’s job is safe. I’m sure he’s going to pick the right head coach.
