Can Avery Bradley be bought out or is he not a free agent next year?

I'll take a toast Avery off the bench for no assets any day of the week.

Would love to overload on shooting. Pay attention to Denver and Milwaukee.

That’s the formula for easy regular season wins.

LA is waiving Beasley and Teodosic - one report says Dallas is buying out Zach Randolph..

So, definitely available:

Kanter
Gortat
Beasley
Teodosic
Ellington
Wes Matthews
Zach Randolph
Stauskas, Baldwin
Carmelo
Cameron Payne


Maybe available:

Jeremy Lin
Dedmon
Markieff Morris
Frank Kaminsky
Robin Lopez
Kosta Koufos

No longer available since I started writing this post:

Wes Matthews, going to Indiana

Would rather have RoLo. Infinitely better defender, infinitely better attitude.

Kanter not likely to take a 2019-20 MLE year in advance. Robin Lopez, maybe - and he's played for the Pelicans before.

Markieff has to be the goal.

Will he get bought out is the real story...

So with a buyout guy getting the MLE, does that Tatum and Gershon match Davis? Or is Brown needed.

Brown is needed.

It’s Tatum/Brown/Yabu/buyout MLE and a boatload of picks

Not sure. Would be close.

I would love Wes Matthews. We don't really need more wings but he does offer something unique as a 3&D guy, plus more guys to throw at some of the great wings we'll face along the way.

Kanter is abysmal on defense; this would be Greg Monroe 2.0. I wanted Monroe last year but it's clear these players don't work for Brad; I'd rather give Williams spot minutes.

Irving | Rozier | Wanamaker
Smart | Matthews | Dozier | Hunter
Hayward | Brown | Ojeleye
Tatum | Morris | Theis | Yabusele
Horford | Baynes | Williams


*I'm aware I switched Hayward & Morris in the lineups. This is what I'm hoping for some playoff time. But obviously they can just be switched.

Theres an issue with him. So if he gets bought out and they plan on using his 2nd year contract in the MLE for AD then they need to get a 3 team deal for AD going. New Orleans can't cut him then bring him back for a year.

Buyout season is perfect for us. Just need another shooter and maybe some size. Shooting is like defensive linemen. You never have enough pass rushers.

Interesting twist.

I don't think Ainge would have a hard time finding a suitor for Kieff though. Guy is a good player most teams would want.
