Amir In The "Clearance Rack" of ESPN Insider's "Bargain Bin"

The key is to ink Amir right away while Lebron mania is in full stride and teams with space can't really commit to 3rd tier free agents. Amir wants to come back, likes the city, the players and if BC doesn't low ball him (has he ever low balled anyone?) he could have Amir sewed up before Jay-Z can hit repeat on Empire State of Mind.

He is the most important free agent the raps have and hopefully receives BC's inaugural call.

I agree with you. If Colangelo is wise he'll do a midnight blitz on Amir and his MLE and BAE targets. Bosh is done, hopefully Hedo is out. Waiting on what they get back for those guys before making a call on the FA class is a bad idea. These signing have to be about the future and they can't take a back seat. Chances are what they get back for Bosh won't be players, if there's a S&T. Chances are what they'd get back for Hedo is someone Else's problem.

With Ed Davis in town the Raptors don't need Amir but it would serve them well to match any offers he gets and keep him. At this point they need to retain all the assets they can.

woah, don't be so quick to jump the gun. that is like saying with demar in town we don't need sonny.

Tom Haberstroh is a wise man. Keep Amir. If we get Beasley, trade Turkoglu for the best defensive 3/4 you can get.
