For 2020: Here are the Bucks upcoming FA and nonguaranteed contracts: George Hill, Eric Bledsoe, Khris Middleton, Nik Mirotic, Malcom Brogdon, Brook Lopez. So basically everyone except Giannis. Will they keep them all? Maybe, but if they don't, then this is a much worse team next year and the Celtics get a decent pick in a potentially better draft.

It’s making more sense now at least.

they saved cap room AND got to draft ainges binkys. I don’t agree with the binkys but I’m gonna say it again. I’m probably wrong.

Hopefully Danny trades down again. Not sure we have enough picks for such a talented draft class.

We've cleared up cap space. Picked a high ceiling player. And a guy who is probably going to be a glue role player. This has been a solid draft night. It's clearly setting up for FA.

Yup, I love the move. It wont be lottery, but it is a delay of salary and that helps

It's actually been pretty good thus far. You get two high character guys who both can slash and get to the line. Langford averaged 17 and 6 on a broken thumb and is 19 with huge upside. Grant Williams was the 2x SEC POY and 1st team all american who is a versatile defender but needs to get a more consistent three point shot. Trade Baynes for a first round pick and clear $8 million in cap space. How can anyone be on their "Fire Ainge this is laughable" rant?

Baynes buyout was worth it although right now I don't have much faith in Ainge building the roster.

Why did the nets get the Sixers pick with the 27th pick this year and the celtics got the bucks pick with the 24th pick?

The bayns thing is irrelevant. Could find a spot for him another way.

Details on Williams’ combine games - apparently looked great as a facilitator.. And Langford can run the pick and roll a little.. both relatively strong players.. don’t know if that theme points to any particular free agents or trade targets.. Jaylen for Sabonis and Holiday would be one possibility..

So do all these moves mean Kawhi is signing with us this in 2 weeks?

They are stuck on automatic. It's white noise.

Fire Ainge.

The only center on the team is Robert Williams. Also, they don't really have any power forwards.

The Celtics have done everything tonight to create cap room.

They must have a plan to use the cap room to acquire a center.

This is not the end of whatever it is that's going on tonight.
