To TOR: Garcia + #5

Its the only thing that really makes sense to me. Barnes is the player ive wanted this whole draft, he fills our biggest need is an EXCELLENT FIT next to Nash and would be an great pickup

if the draft order goes like this, then for sure we wont get barnes but might get gilchrist
davis,robinson,beal,barnes and then MKG with the 5th pick
but who knows, the cavs can pick MKG with thier 4th pick..
Just got off the phone with a source in Toronto,
He said we will very likely make a hefty 2 year offer to Captain Canada in the off season, didn't go into specifics but he said that to round out our roster after the signing we would have to let go or trade one or more of our front court assets.
He also mentioned that Barbosa will get an offer from us as well, short term, but hefty. He was very clear that as of right now the intention is to increase our SF depth through draft/trade.
He is also unsure of Bayless/Calderon future here in toronto but said that he would be shocked if both were here next season, especially if we do make a solid offer to nash and he accepts.

Barbosa didnt get an offer that we know of, and was subsequently traded. But all of it was reported here in Feb which was also wrong.
Do I need to pull up all the articles (legit media) speculating on Bayless/Calderons future with the raps pre-March? Same with Nash?
I hope this gets locked because Grange already talked about him earlier this week. Another Rumor thread pushing a narrative, so we can make more fantasy trades. Its like spam here. You have to go 7 pages deep to find Sullinger draft thread because they get moved out with this.

They used Tyreke Evans at the 3 this year which shows their lack of depth at the forward position. Outlaw and Garcia both played horrible this season. I don't see them making the trade unless they're getting a small forward in return.

This year, I really got a chance to watch him play. He spends FAR too much time hanging on the perimeter, does not know how to create for anyone else, and has pretty much wasted his elite athleticism at the college level.
For a guy with a ridiculous wing-span, 13 blocks in 39 games is laughable. For a long range shooter, he isn't particularly effective.
One assist per game?
I wouldn't touch this game with the 8th pick, nevermind trading yet another asset to acquire Barnes. No thanks. Stick to Igoudala or Lillard. Or trade down and grab Marshall or something
