Rick Adelman fired by the Houston Rockets

82

Houston chose not to extend his contract, effectively firing him. His relationship with the org had been strained recently. Marc Spears at Yahoo calls it a "mutual parting," and SBN recently reported that the Rockets players wanted Rick to stay. Adelman has 945 career victories, is now a free agent, and doesn't seem to be retiring. (Edited for the updates from Yahoo etc, thanks Norsk)
