It'll cost 12.8m to cut him and ~12m to keep him. The high cap number for cutting him comes from the remaining prorated signing bonus, not any option bonus that we are paying him. The only way to get it to 7m is if the CBA is extended and we can take advantage of the June 1 cuts, pushing 5m into 2007.
