wait and see if Bargs gets traded

Bogut had his minute restriction lifted and could be a good buy low but I still dont trust his health

Probably. Toronto is determined to ditch Bargnani.

This implies they realize Bargnani is not any good. Actually, you can make a strong argument he's the worst player in the NBA.

Assuredly other teams know he's not very good, which means even if he's traded, heavy minutes are out of the question.

And if he stays, Toronto seems to have realized Amir and Jonas are actually pretty good, with Valanciunas in particular having fantastic upside. So even if Bargnani's not traded, his role will be tremendously reduced.

I wouldn't bank on Bogut averaging more than 27-28 mpg, but he could if everything breaks right, which gives him upside. And he's elite in one category (blocks), which is a particularly scarce category, giving him a solid floor even in a worst-case situation.

Do it. Bargnani is trash. Bogut is cleared to play back-to-backs now and should be getting consistent regular minutes.
