Okay, maybe I misread. This is much better.

Yeah, that's giving teams a major out if you could use it every year.

Well, it's not at all clear from the text of the agreement that you can only use it once per contract. I imagine the text will get a legal scrub at some point and the lawyers will make it more precise.

There is apparently a "stretch" provision that can be used repeatedly. Extends the remainder of a contract payments (and cap hit) out over several years if you cut the player.
