    He had 3 years left on his deal, an extension is completely unnecessary. Maybe they figure if he flames out this year or next and has to be payed extra years to not coach here that Walters will pay the bill anyway. Makes no sense to me, but whatever, I’m kinda fine with trying to build some actual culture and long term stability for a change.

    Yeah I don't get it either and can't think of another example of this. Even if they thought he was awesome and the best coach in the league, there's no reason to do this now. The last regime had a somewhat bad reputation for how they treated past coaches (some of it earned, some not), so maybe this is Walter trying to signal things are going to be different going forward.
