Who Should Be Traded?

I'm not actually on the Beal hype train, so that affects who I'd be thinking of moving. I don't think Beal is enough less flawed than Siakim to build a trade around that basis - and I think any trade which doesn't include Siakam doesn't get past the initial discussion. If you're not moving Siakim, then it's likely a combination of Powell/Johnson/Boucher for salary matching, anyone from the end of the bench if someone's looking to do a pawn-for-pawn exchange that the braintrust likes, or Lowry if there's a godfather offer out there.
As for Beal... right now, I think I'd actually prefer trying to acquire Derozan over Beal - he's less expensive, able to facilitate, and a decent rebounder for his position - and he fits the culture, and can take the pressure of being the number one scorer of off Siakim.
Derozan's salary means that we would need to give up quite a bit just to make the salaries work out, but we could do it without giving up any starter except our 6th starter Powell if San Antonio was willing to waive players to make roster spots.
There's also possibly an interesting win-now trade that you might be able to build on a base of Lowry/Powell/(one of Johnson or Boucher)/sweetener for Derozan/Aldridge... though I would want to see how we stack up against the big three of the Nets on defense before going all in on that option.

But in all seriousness, no to the regular season phenom who cannot shoot 3 and cannot defend an inanimate object.

It will cost something to get him.
Its going to be hard for Orlando to just toss Bamba aside like extra napkins at Starbucks.
He did go 6 overall only two drafts back.
Anyone have an idea on what price Orlando would want for him ?There's no such thing as a 2nd round bust.

Is Mo Bamba enough of an upgrade or even an upgrade at all based on his body of work to date over Chris Boucher ?

Trying out DeRozan again would represent such a massive step backwards, I wish I wouldn't keep hearing Raptors fans pining after his 2 pt offence. Team finally won by filling the roster with guys who can shoot and defend. Why go backwards.
