    Then the Raptors need to go ahead and get rid of as much talent as possible and get picks in return.

    hawkfan Trade Scenario (where amazing happens):

    Hawks get

    Amir Johnson (expirer)

    Raptors get

    Louis Williams
    2nd round pick

    The Hawks get another big for the front court, needed since Elton Brand is hurt and needs to retire. Horford-Johnson-Millsap is a nice front court with a lot of energy.

    The Raptors make their front court worse, get Williams (who is talented, but can be moved out again), and a 2nd round pick.

    I think Ujiri wants future assets like a first round pick or a young player that can help this team in the future. He's not just going to trade away players for nothing.

    If he does that, this team will continue to win.
    There is talent on this roster.
    The Raptors are playing better without Gay, with Johnson and DeRozan both stepping up. Johnson is turning into a solid veteran - sometimes bigs take time to develop, and it did for him. But right now he has become a good player.

    Such a big dilemma for him

    I agree. Amir is a solid asset and same with Lowry. I wouldn't want him to ship away his players for absolutely nothing though.

    Lowry and Amir easily gets you decent young assets, if the Raps are patient.

    I feel so sorry for anyone who has to support that team.

    They are the worst ever.

    When we want them to win, they lose. When we want them to lose, they win. This is a very hard team to be a fan of.

    The GM needs to start making some more moves or this team will be stuck in no-mans land for a looooong time.
