I'll wait until everything is final (whenever the hell that ends up being) before getting pissed at Payton and/or Kupchak.

However, I still don't understand why this trade needs to be amended. Ainge said that Payton not reporting wouldn't make a difference many days ago. What has changed? And even pretending Ainge never said that, why would Banks need to be sent back if Payton does end up taking his physical tomorrow and ends up reporting to the Celtics this October? Shouldn't the terms of the trade not change at all if Payton reports and passes a physical?

This seems fishy. Will be anxious to see what the hell is going on tomorrow.
