Also cause Boston is a better team and will be a better team for the next 2 years. 3rd year is debatable 1-2 years (prob one year at a cap friendly contract given their cap situation)

Boston didn't want him to stay, and couldn't afford to pay him a decent salary.
Sure, he likely could have stayed there for extremely under value but you can't expect that.
A little home town discount is one thing, but they would have paid him about 1/5th of his market value.
