Celtics trade Holiday's contract and an early second rounder in this year's draft for Robinson's contract Highsmith and a second round pick (worse swap with MEM). Celtics waive Robinson as he is only guaranteed $9.8 Million, Heat take on salary to get a better second rounder and get a more competitive player in Holiday.

Celtics trade Porzingis to Lakers, Lakers give up Knecht, Vincent and a future 1st swap as comp, Dallas give an expendable Gafford for PG play in Kyrie's absence, shooting and a 2nd. Nets take on Kleber for a 2nd.

Celtics save $33.3 Million and get under 1st apron momentarily. They can re-sign Horford to a small 1 year deal and add a few minimum players on the edges to still stay under the 2nd apron. Not an ideal outcome to split the championship team from 2024 but their tax situation is daunting and it won't be easy to get out of. Holiday's contract won't be easy to trade but Miami might be deluded enough to think they can still contend and the price will be low enough. Porzingis despite injuries should be easier to trade, Gafford is expendable in the Mavs frontcourt and LAL are desperate for a C but don't want to give up Reaves. Dallas might want a better G than Vincent and the other Value doesn't help them immediately, potentially this deal sets them up for a trade to get a better guard but Vincent could be nice of the bench when Kyrie comes back and Knecht is useful as well.

LMK what you think, does anyone decline and what should the Celts do this offseason?
