Writing is pretty much on the wall. Barring significant injury to Bargs/Amir I think he's gone. Thoughts?

I don't know. I think Amir and Ed have similar odds at being dealt. The way Amir is playing right now, wow, could be a sell high moment. Ed on the other hand has big time upside but hasn't been given the time to pad his stats. I feel Ed might have more upside but I think that right now they would get a better return on Amir. If they're maximizing assets then Amir should be the guy.
A log jam of talented young big men. This is the ideal problem to have.

Ed is on a rookie deal. You don't think he's going to get a substantial pay increase when the time comes?
Amir's contract looked questionable when it was signed but it's turned out to be a high value deal for the Raptors given his production and team contributions.

Right, and it's a good risk to take right now given that the Raptors aren't ready for the spotlight yet.
I'm not sure what the Raptors go looking for but let me toss out a list of names to stir the pot.
- Nicolas Batum
- Danilo Gallinari
- Chase Budinger
- Al-Farouq Aminu
- Dorell Wright

I'd like to keep Amir and ship ED.
I don't see ED being content in Toronto with a career ceiling as a back up to Bargnani. I like Amir's energy, he always goes balls out, and he his number one priority is always the team.
Not sure if people realize this but Amir is only 1 year and 11 months older than ED.
