The plan has always been for him to do one year contracts until summer 2017 when the cap will go up to 100+ mil and he'll fully max out then. He's just maximizing his earning potential
thank you, now it makes more sense
If it was the NFL it would be the opposite- He'd have a 10 year deal worth around $160MIL with only like $40M guaranteed- and a heavy loaded back few years so they could cut him before he got most of his money.
Fathers- steer your sons towards NBA and MLB

-- that NFL money is a joke and all u get is brain damage after your short 3- 5 yr career
Meanwhile, you got nikkas like Richard Jefferson winning rings at age 38, and MLB got ppl like Cal Ripken who EASILY played into their 40's
