Chances we get Nash, Batum or any of those guys are pretty, pretty slim. Same for getting Gay or Iguodala via trades. Same for getting a top 3 pick. Raptors won't trade any of Calderon, DeMar or Bargnani, IMO.
Also, even though I don't love Bayless, I think we should re-sign him since we can go over the cap to get him. Here's a plan that I think is pretty realistic.
1.Draft Jeremy Lamb with our 8th pick and best point guard available with our 37th pick.
2.Sign Aaron Gray, Jamaal Magloire and Alan Anderson.
3.Trade Amir Johnson, Gary Forbes and our 56th pick for a combo guard.
4.Trade TE for Marvin Williams.
Valanciunas/Gray/Magloire
Bargnani/Davis/Kleiza
Williams/Johnson/Anderson
DeRozan/Combo guard/Lamb
Calderon/Bayless/Rookie
Now let's see the rotation:
Valanciunas/Gray/Davis/Bargnani/Magloire
Bargnani/Davis/Kleiza/Johnson
Williams/Johnson/Kleiza/DeRozan/Anderson
DeRozan/Lamb/Combo guard/Bayless/Anderson
Calderon/Bayless/Combo guard/Rookie
So our 3 guys who won't be on the 12 men rotation are Magloire, Anderson and the rookie point guard. I think I like this roster, are you? If not, why?
