The airthmetic of the cap is as under:
Total Celtics salary (with increments) = 29 mill
Renounce Edney + Popeye + Tabak = 3.2 mill
Dino Radja's salary will be off = 2.5 mill
Add back salary of an 8th pick = 1.0 mill
Estimated cap = 32 mill
So cap room for next season = 32 - 29 + 3.2 + 2.5 - 1.0 = 7.7 mill.
So 7-7.5 mill is accurate. - Mishra
