Three trade ideas involving the Raptors before the deadline


Toronto Raptors

1) Trade with the Warriors to receive Green and improve the overall defence, a ball handler and a dog on the court who will compete like no one else. Moody is 21 and will be a perfect role player from the bench. Payton II is more a salary filler even if he can be a decent role player. 2 FRP slightly protected will be helpful to fill some gaps in the upcoming years.

2) Trade with the Magic as GTJ will probably want to hit free agency and his role seems compromised in the Raptors with Barrett and Quickley coming in. Add a FRP that will be a mid to late FRP to immediately improve the team.

3) Trade with the Heat to have a real PG who can bring experience to the young core. Receive 2 picks and send role players on multiple years contracts to improve the financial viability of the project.

Potential Starting Lineup:

Lowry, Quickley, Barrett, Barnes & Green

Backup Five:

Payton II, Moody, Harris, Young & Poeltl

Rest Of Bench:

McDaniels, Dick, Temple & Koloko

Golden State Warriors

Shake things up one last time to give a chance to Curry. Trade Green who is becoming more and more a liability. Furthermore, Siakam might stay next years if he is playing with Curry and Paul.

Potential Starting Lineup:

Curry, Thompson, Wiggins, Siakam & Looney

Backup Five:

Paul, Joseph, Podziemski, Kuminga & Jackson-Davis

Rest Of Bench:

Quinones, Santos, Saric & Garuba

——————————————————

Orlando Magic

Receive a young player who can shoot the 3 and create his own shot when he is in the right system. Same timeline as most of the players in the roster. There is already a lot of young players in this team so a late FRP in what seems to be a disappointing draft is not the priority for the Magic.

Potential Starting Lineup:

Fultz, Suggs, Wagner, Banchero & Carter Jr.

Backup Five:

Black, Trent Jr., Ingles, Isaac & Bitadze

Rest Of Bench:

Anthony, Queen, Houstan, Okeke & Wagner

——————————————————

Miami Heat

Swap Lowry with Schroder who is under 2 year contract like Boucher. With Porter Jr., there is now three experienced role players who will deepen the rotation for a long playoff run.

Potential Starting Lineup:

Schroder, Herro, Butler, Martin & Adebayo

Backup Five:

Richardson, Robinson, Jaquez Jr., Boucher & Love

Rest Of Bench:

Smith, Porter Jr., Highsmith, Jovic & Bryant
