Rockets owner says J.B. Bickerstaff has coaching job until season’s end
Houston Rockets owner Leslie Alexander sat down with ESPN.com after the team fired coach Kevin McHale.
Alexander said the decision was hard, "I really like Kevin, I got a great relationship with him... And he did a great job last year in getting us to the Western Conference Finals, missing two starters; it looked like he was going to be around a long time. This was so shocking and quick."
Rockets owner also said that J.B. Bickerstaff is going to be the coach until the end of the season and then he will be re-evaluated.
