I’ve yet to hear anyone explain the problem with how it’s treated. It’s a 47 million dollar per year contract and that’s how it’s treated by the CBA. I don’t see it as being any concern for cap circumvention. It may be more controversial if it get evade California taxes. It’s just wrong to call it a 700 million contract when it isn’t really.
