This is the shittiest trade I've ever seen. Forget the players. Giving up 2 second round picks for a 34 year-old second round type player?

Bogans and Haywood's contract will make for good trade bait

The NBA is weird with trades because often times trades have nothing to do with the players themselves.

It's a game of contracts, flexibility, picks, cap maneuvers, etc.

Cavs freeing up roster spots for vet ring-chasers.

I think they're favorites to win East.

Obviously I can't talk because Morey loves this stuff, but I hate it. Just seems stupid when teams give away stuff because they are trying to organize cap space.

He gives the cavs a total of 16 million to use as expiring contract trade bait.

All of the contracts are unguaranteed, so the Celtics will cut all of those players.

They are trying to dump salary.

The Cavs are using it to have Bogans and Haywood's contracts to use as salary filler in trades.

Same reason why Morey traded for Terry and signed Papanikolaou for nearly 5 million per year. Salary fillers for trades.

If you've never heard of Keith Bogans then you've been out of tune with basketball in general for over a decade.
