If Alex Gordon signs an extension today paying him an additional $80,000,000 through the end of the 2019 season, people aren't going to say "he signed a 4.39 year contract worth $83,981,545". They're going to say he signed a 4 year extension worth $80,000,000...and only Dane will wonder why his contract will be up with 68 games left in the 2019 season.

That's true. The issue is that even on spotrac there is a missing year in his contract. They mark out the final year of his old contract then say he signed a 4 year deal that runs through 5.
