It wasn't until Davis/Amir got pumped up minutes and Calderon took over the offense that the team started to improve.Twitter: @ReubenJRD • NBA, Raptors writer for Daily Hive Vancouver, Toronto.

Mediumcore wrote: View PostActually I would take a chance on Amare because it looks like he is starting to get healthy and is rounding into shape. He can provide the low post scoring we need as well. Basically we don't have many options to improve the roster and if it was between trading Bargs for Amare or Boozer I would take a chance on Amare. He could be our David West.

Don't need those broken knees with a high price, and they actually play very similar roles off the bench.Twitter: @ReubenJRD • NBA, Raptors writer for Daily Hive Vancouver, Toronto.

He could decide not to opt out, but that's something I obviously have no clue on either way. Again, IMO it just seems like he could make even just a bit more if he hit the market.

Package Bargs + DeRozan to Jazz for Favors + Millsap + 2nd round pick (I think the Jazz will do whatever they can to resign Al Jeff and have him play PF) while Kanter is their C of the future.
Next ship Valanciunas + Ross + Kleiza to Orlando for A.Affalo + 1st round pick (Top 10 guaranteed)
Resign Bassy Telfair and Allan Anderson to a one year deal
Draft Nerlens Noel with the Magic pick and Ray McCallum or Seth Curry with the Jazz pick
Sign Tony Allen, a 2 years 10 million contract
Sign Marquis Daniel a one year vet minimum deal so he can be our 3rd string SF
Sign Nazr Mohammad with a one year vet minimum deal
Next Year
Lowry/Telfair/McCallum or Curry
Affalo/T.Allen/A.Anderson
Gay/Fields/M.Daniels
Millsap/Amir/Acy
Noel/Favors/Nazr
Our front court are set with Millsap and Noel and if Noel does not pan out, we have Favors who plays like Amir Johnson, imagine the two as our backup PF and C, our paint are protected while our shooter is set with Affalo knocking down the shots. I know this is a big change of a lineup for the Raps but if we are gonna win, we have to make sure to do something different than this year. I know we loose a lots of talents in DeRozan + Ross + Val but in exchange we get something better. T.Allen is R.Gay's buddy and he will be a good backup SG for us, he defends and plays tough defense, something both Ross and A.Anderson lack there off besides he has tons of playoff experience. We will do whatever we can to shed both Bargs and Kleiza's contract and find a better home for them.

It might not even have to be the full MLE to sign him and it could still be a payraise. There will not be a lot of great bigs on the market if they can't get one back in a Bargs deal.

I originally said using Bargnani + asset for surrounding pieces, and MLE for that big if that was the alternate option(s). (Highly unlikely MLE nets us anything other than a perimeter player, and a back-up PG).
I feel like Ross is our best asset. Potential, rookie contract. Teams wanting Derozan will have to take on his contract.Twitter: @ReubenJRD • NBA, Raptors writer for Daily Hive Vancouver, Toronto.
