A question to help clarify capology. If Bass gets 3/$20M, can you start the first year at a lower value (and cap hit) and then increase by 20% each year? If this is true, Bass could get the following:
$5,494,505
$6,593,407
$7,912,088
If the same math is applied to say a 4 year/$30M for Green, he would get $5,588,674 in the first year. This is the only way we could sign Bass, Allen, and Green at the numbers discussed and still be under the luxury cap.
Is this actually how it could work?
