    Masai Ujiri will aggressively attempt to trade Andrea Bargnani before July 1 as his top priority now that he is general manager of the Toronto Raptors.

    Bargnani is owed $10,750,000 in 13-14 and $11,500,000 in 14-15.

    The Raptors can use their amnesty on Bargnani during the second week of July if they are unable to trade him. :cheers:

    No.

    No way.

    No way, no how.

    Not if we got him free.

    Just, wow, no. No to Bargs.

    He's exactly what we don't need.

    I'm just asking. I think he might fit Stotts system though. I just wouldn't want him as a core guy.

    I'd happily take him at like 4 million a year. Not at what he's owed. Unless they sent Valnciunas with him, and there's no chance of that happening.

    Like Pau Gasol without the rebounding or inside game.

    Bargnani's inside game isn't that bad.

    I'm not sure if he has negative value or zero value. So, they'd have to send someone/some thing else with him.

    Well I think the Rapters will end up using the amnesty on Bargs. So if that happens should the Blazers be interested?

    I'd say negative, for sure.

    I think he would only look good next to D. Howard. L*kers should sign him.

    Would he look good next to DeAndre Jordan though. Thats the question.

    He would ONLY be considered if amnestied. And even then I would imagine we don't bid as much as another team would.

    I never could see why he was drafted #1. I don't see the Blazers needing in any case.

    I'd make an offer to sign him if he were amnestied but only if we can get a traditional banger to play center first. He'd be a decent backup/insurance policy to LaMarcus. Lets just say I'd take Bargs over Frye and plenty of posters were ready to take Frye back in the past.

    I'd take him back if it meant getting Big Val. He would be our starting center from the get go and bringing Bargs off the bench might not be so bad. I doubt Toronto let's big Val go however. They are more likely to move Ross or Derozen.

    The guy is so grossly overpaid, it is tough to remember that he isn't actually worthless. As a cheap bench player whose only role was to score, he would not be a negative.
