I checked this out and I could be wrong, but I think it works like this.

The current year of the contract is paid out over the course of the season. If the contract is multi-year, the remaining years are paid out immediately, but the current season is still paid out over the course of the current season.

So if a guy has a 1 year $400000 contract and he is released, you will not see any immediate impact. It is paid out over the year.

If a guy has a 3 year contract and each year is for $400000, and he is released, the team will see an immediate $800000 hit with the current season's $400000 being paid out over the year.
