Bargnani... For Ilyasova?
The #Raptors are still dangling Andrea Bargnani, with the team reportedly chasing #Bucks forward Ersan Ilyasova. bit.ly/WF4cES

Very interesting now that it's gaining some heat. Quite frankly, unless he's playing the power forward and no other position, and Derozan/Ross/JV/Lowry/Gay/Johnson aren't traded, I'm content with the deal.
Although, if any of the above players are included, no thank you.Twitter: @ReubenJRD • NBA, Raptors writer for Daily Hive Vancouver, Toronto.

Boozer is 31, due to make $15.3M & $16.8M the next 2 seasons.
The Raps are already very close to the luxury tax threshold for next season and this trade would push them into the tax. Not only does that make them a tax team, but it severely limits their options for additional roster moves: no bi-annual exception, significantly reduced MLE, more strict financial trade requirements.
I don't think Boozer is enough of an upgrade to justify making 42% / 46% more money than Bargnani over the next two seasons, especially with the negative impact on roster flexibility moving forward."Defense wins championships."

Ilyasova is not a need since we have Gay. He can shoot which is great since he can spread the floor.. but he's not a banger and until JV really develops it doesn't really make sense.
I like his contract in that I think he's moveable (3 years @ $23.7M) if he doesn't fit. Everyone needs a shooter that can rebound. Because he's an upgrade over Bargnani I'd do it.
