    How about Elton Brand?
    He's only making $2.1 million (on an expiring deal). If Dallas wants to move him, they'd need more to match Bargnani's salary.

      I predict that Bargnani will be a Raptor on Friday. I am under the perception that Casey now has a free reign to play or not play AB as he sees fit. Finally!

          I believe that as he was acquired off of amnesty waivers that Brand cannot be traded until the offseason. I think the official date that he could be move is July 1, 2013, but until then he is a member of the Dallas Mavericks.

            WHat about signing him in the offseason? The guy can still play, and would come very cheap.

              Elton Brand was picked up off Amnesty and can't be traded this year

                  With his contract expiring this summer he will be a free agent. This would mean that I was incorrect earlier saying that he couldn't be traded until July 1; rather, Dallas will not be able to move him at all.

                  As a free agent the Raptors could, in theory, sign Elton Brand to a contract as long as both sides agreed. I think he will get a raise over what he was making this year and am not convinced that the Raptors would be interested in him. But it is at least a possibility.

                    Interest article by Sam Amick at USA Today. Conversation he had with Colangelo in which the major conversation piece is Bargnani and his position with (or not with) the Raptors. Here is the link: http://espnfc.com/news/story/_/id/13...nology?cc=5901

                    "We began this year with Bargnani as our No. 1 scoring option. He's now No. 3 because Rudy has arrived and DeMar (DeRozan) has emerged. Now Bargnani is No. 3. There's talk about possibly moving him – and again we've talked about it, not for talent reasons but because maybe sometimes a change of scenery is the best thing for somebody. But sometimes a change of scenery can happen just by redecorating the room.

                    "That has happened with our situation here, in that Bargnani goes out with an injury, we make a fairly significant trade, which changes – really – the complexion of the team in two ways. It takes a pass-first, controlled point guard in Jose (Calderon, who was traded from Toronto to Memphis to Detroit in the deal) out of the lineup, it thrusts Kyle (Lowry) back in – where we had intended to have him. And you bring in Rudy, who clearly is a No. 1 scoring option, and DeMar has emerged.

                    "All of a sudden the outlook and the presence of a guy like Andrea is entirely different now. He's not relied on as a No. 1 guy. He has never been paid like a No. 1 option, but people wanted to criticize that he couldn't handle that role. I've always felt like he's been slotted in salary-wise as a No. 2 or No. 3. Maybe he's kind of fitting in nicely now.

                    "If a trade doesn't occur before the deadline, or even this summer, maybe it's because we figured out that with the evolution of the team he is the right guy to be a part of this team. He's been through the hard part. This may be the easiest part ahead of him.

                      Maynor would be a fantastic backup

                        Hoping he will still be the same distributor before the ACL injury.
