Simple question do we have to pay Gordon 1/3 of his contract?
And does it count as one of his contract years? Or does it start once he starts playing?

No, we have to pay it all. It counts towards contract years. We can not amnesty.
same as greg olden , sam bowie etc...on (IR) injure reserve for their career ...that why players want long term deals
As I understand it, the Hornets will be paying him $58M over the next four years even if he never plays another game.
This is basically the case. If he retires, we can get some relief on the cap, but it won't help Benson out as much.
That's why hold-outs work.
