When he was on the Celtics---Gomes was the guy who publicly stated that the C's were Losing games ON PURPOSE, for the Draft---we don't need him around--!
 ;)

  Losing games on purpose by not playing him more, take that for what it's worth.

Stein's quotes about including Gomes don't make any sense to me.  I must be missing something,

Salary move. Gomes will not even put on a jersey for Boston before he gets cut.

Why immediately cut him, if we've got an open roster spot?  Just as a courtesy to him and his agent, to maybe latch on to another team?

If OKC is involved, they must be sending a 2nd rounder to one of the two teams.

If we're doing them the favor by freeing up space for them by taking Gomes, one would think so, for sure .

Guess not though:

Source confirms ESPN report that OKC's Ryan Gomes has now been included in Jerryd Bayless deal. Along with Lee, Celts give up 2016 2nd pick.

Was wondering why this was taking so long.

Celtics may still be giving up a pick, but I have to believe that they are getting one from OKC for taking on Gomes. There's no reason to include him in the deal otherwise.

I agree.  This makes NO sense.  Why in the world would OKC NOT have to give up something like a future 2nd rounder to us at least?????????????????

Murphy better be incorrect on this!!!!  Why are we doing the Thunder ANY favors after they knowingly sent us damaged goods in Green??????????????????????

Don't get the uproar over the Gomes inclusion. We're giving up a second rounder that will probably be so low in 2016 we could just buy it back if we really wanted to. Besides, with all of our picks (9 first rounders over the next five years), what place do second rounders really have on an already overcrowded Celtics team?

Our motivation is clear: Gomes is an expiring deal and he makes a little over a mil. We can keep as salary filler in a trade Danny may have in mind. We can flat out waive him right now to be very comfortably under the tax line, or we can just let him expire in the offseason. This contract is far from cumbersome for us: we do the Thunder a favor (GMs do this all the time to earn brownie points with each other), it does little to hurt our improving cap situation, and it may even help facilitate a trade for us in the future.


Draft: 8 first rounders in next 5 years.

Cap space: $24 mil.

No, that's not an issue. There would be no need for the Celtics to use any part of that TE to get a deal done. Memphis needs to use a TE to take Lee's salary, but Boston can take back less salary with no complications.

Boston has to be getting something in the deal if they are taking on Gomes, just to waive him. Could be cash, could be another 2nd.

To recap: Celts get Bayless and Gomes and likely waive Gomes. Grizz get Courtney Lee. Some second-rounders likely involved to tie it all up

My guess: Boston sends out a 2nd to Memphis, but gets one back from OKC.

As part of the Lee-Bayless deal, Boston will send a future second round pick to Memphis. OKC gets a protected 2nd rounder in '17

OKC must be sending the Celtics cash. 

That 2017 #2 is probably top-55 protected or something of that nature (similar to the deals we made with Sacramento when we paid them to take Cassell's and POB's contracts, where they traded us #2s that we'll never see.)
