2 to 4, eliminate = disband! 500 million expenditure is about to crush the Celtics! It will cost 28 million to sign a basic salary

On May 17, 2:4, with the Celtics officially announced that they were eliminated by the New York Knicks and returned home, the most cruel situation for them is finally coming, and this team may not escape the fate of disbanding.
Without Tatum, it is normal for the Celtics to lose the game, but everyone in this team is now facing the crisis of disintegration. Because the Celtics' salary next season is really too high, and with the current lineup still unchanged, the total salary of their entire team will be US$230 million!
230 million, is the money blowing from the strong wind? This expenditure is far beyond the league's original first and second rich lines, which means they have to pay a luxury tax of US$263 million, and their annual expenditure will reach 494 million. They will become the only team in history to spend 500 million annually.
Think about what this is? If you pay 500 million yuan a year, even if this team wins the championship, it will probably lose money. If you can pay 500 million yuan, it is estimated that only teams like the Warriors, but even the Warriors have never had such a scary expenditure. The boss also asked Manager Dunleavy to find a way to pay less.
So without a championship, the Celtics will disintegrate next season. This year is the last time their lineup appears in the league. Jaylen Brown signed a 5-year and 300 million contract, White held 4-year and 126 million yuan, Holiday and Celtics signed a 4-year and 135 million yuan contract, and Porzingis and the Celtics still have a 2-year and 60 million contract.
Finally, they have to consider how to renew Tatum and Horford. Tatum can sign 318 million in 5 years. You have to give this money. This is the top five in the top super league. Horford’s 9.5 million a year is a great value, how can you not renew your contract? Don’t forget Prichard’s 4-year, 30 million contract is definitely high-quality and cheap. Just looking at the salary of these 7 people, the Celtics can’t stand it.
So next season, as long as the Celtics sign a player with a basic salary of 3 million, they will have to pay a luxury tax of 25 million, which is to sign a basic salary, which is to spend 28 million. Even if you sign a basic salary of 4, it will have to be over 100 million. No team can withstand this pressure. It depends on who the Celtics will replace after the team is broken. Tatum and White should be able to stay, but Porus and Holiday may have to leave. In addition, it is not certain whether Jaylen Brown can stay.
