Can someone remind on the rules of trading players that just got traded?

Meaning when can we trade some of the players we get from the Nets?

One rule is that, since Bogans will be a S&T, he's not eligible to be traded until January 15.

Wait... Huh? Isn't Bogans an essential part of this deal that makes the numbers work?

Once the Celtics acquire him in the trade, they can't ship him back out to another team until January.

Oh ok, good to know.

Just a question regarding KG's NTC.

He obviously had to waive it in order to be shipped to BK. So does that mean he still has an NTC now that he is a Net? As in, if the Nets tried to trade him down the line, would he again have to waive the NTC? Or is it a 1 time deal and once he agreed to waive it, the clause essentially expired?

With how stealth the C's were in hiring Brad Stevens, I wouldn't be shocked if they had already worked out deals to reroute some of the nets players to other teams as part of the KG/Pierce deal.

I really hope so. I have a feeling Gerald Wallace is going back to the Bobcats and we are getting Ben Gordon's expiring instead.

Wishful thinking.  I expect that it would be Humphries since he was part of a trade deadline rumor last year for Gordon. 
Before a game on Christmas against the Pacers, Bird told Chuck Person that he had a present for him. During the game, Bird shot a 3-pointer in front of Person. Immediately after releasing the ball, Bird said to Person, "Merry F!#*ing Christmas!" and then the shot went in.

Yeah, I think there is basically no chance Wallace for Gordon is on the table, unless we are also sending back a lot of extra value.  Charlotte doesn't have much use for Wallace with MKG, and they don't need to take on that contract.  But, Humphries could make some sense...although less sense now that they have Jefferson.
