Message: [QUOTE="Knicks411, post: 5094521, member: 767"] The rookie deals have options tacked on. The generic player contract is might have a team option at the end, but the majority of them are fully guaranteed. The Lakers seem to really really want Hurley. He can definitely get himself a really good deal. Yes? He would have no incentive to give them anything back. There can be offsets in the deal where if a coach takes another job that money can offset some of money he's owed, but would seem very unlikely they could just walk away or negotiate it away unliterally. (Probably the more accurate way to put it is that Hurley would get paid out the full contract but some of it might be from whoever hired him next) [/QUOTE]
