Via Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle:

After three years of a largely successful retooling of the Rockets' roster and the team's first playoff series win in a dozen years, Rockets general manager Daryl Morey has signed a contract to remain with the team, multiple individuals with knowledge of the deal said Thursday.

The contract will keep Morey, 37, with the Rockets through the 2012-13 season, according to one of the individuals familiar with the contract.

Morey's initial contract with the team had expired after last season. He and Rockets owner Leslie Alexander reached agreement after the season on a new deal, which was finalized this week.

Well, that's nice to hear. I'm glad we get him back for at least four more years. I like him a lot and think he's one of the top GMs in the league by far.

I dunno, where will he play? The roster is pretty full already.

If the Red Nation apparatchiks start talking about a Five Year Plan, I'm out of here.

nah

He’s under 7’ tall, meaning he’s eminently qualified to play C for us.

Just curious

How much do you think he is making with the Rox?

Your guess is as good as mine

But judging by how much work he does during the year and how good he is, maybe between 1-3 million a year? Just a guess. Probably way off.

How many Biletnikoffs does he have? NOT TWO!
