Problem is, we've already seen how hesitant teams are at accepting Zach Lavine's contract at 40mil with his glass knees. What team is going to be that excited for KP at 30+mil? Even if he's expiring.
I'm not saying it's impossible for Boston to move on but it'll be tough.
Either way, of all the 2nd apron teams, they are the only ones I think it's 100% worth it for them to be there long term.
According to that article, shaving 25 mil would greatly reduce the tax hit. KP + Horford is 40 mil. They need to find a quality 5 out center for 10 to 15 mil and ride with it. But I agree that ditching KP contract may be painful.
