Report: Mike D’Antoni close to extension with Rockets

The summer of being unnecessarily dramatic remains in full force for the Rockets, but it looks like there may be a happy ending to this tale in particular.

After what seemed to be a tumultuous disagreement between head coach Mike D’Antoni and Houston Rockets management over a possible contract extension, both sides are reportedly close to closing in on a deal.

According to ESPN’s Tim MacMahon, both sides have decided to begin negotiations anew after the Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta removed the buyout clause that began the rift in the first place.
