    Contracts mean nothing for coaches. Tibs has 30 mil left on his deal, and they still fired him. I am glad for Ime, though.

    It does send a message to Ime and the players though that ownership is committed to him.

    And in a way, it sends a message to the Knicks that he ain't available and to stop asking permission to speak to him.

    No - I think you mean he told the front office what they are going to do in the short term and who they should look at.

    Weeks ago, I said he was getting the extension - he has a lot of power within the Rockets organization right now.

    Well, that's okay. It isn't much of a fall from sitting on the bench.

    Thibs still gets his 30 million, so I beg to differ on it not meaning anything.

    There's almost no work contract in the world that guarantees employment, just compensation.

    thats exactly what I said. Ime gave his demands and the FO probably agreed to it and then he signed the contract. I wouldn't be surprised if that contract offer was available for months.
