Social media buzz about tweet from Houston Rockets GM Daryl Morey
HOUSTON – The Houston Rockets were in Orlando Wednesday night taking on the Magic. But fans on social media were not talking about what was happening on the court. Rockets fans were buzzing over what general manager Daryl Morey tweeted.
The tweet was sent out at 4:21 p.m. Wednesday and still has not been deleted.
A Rockets fan named Chris Kelesoglou tweeted Morey, "Does having a job in bball make you sick of watching it?"
Morey then replied: "no, it is like being a gynecologist, you don't get sick of it."
