I think he does get the full $41.77M, because the total of the contract (incl this year at 10+2) is actually 45M. The ~3M in cap hit and real money have evaporated...actually they never even existed.


The thing that still confuses me is the total AAV of the contract is 45.089M, but the total real cash is 45M...

edit: guessing maybe the differential is because the 2M signing bonus this year is not prorated?
