The fact that everyone on the Raptors board loves it should tell you how horrible of a trade this is. Never do deals with Ujiri.

On top of that, Bargnani has a 5% trade kicker meaning his new salary will be $11,287,500. They should be the ones giving up picks, for **** sakes.

A 1st round pick for Bargnani. This franchise just finds ways to make you want to quit on them...
