Sources: Bulls/Raptors talking Boozer for Bargnani swap -- Stein

Kleiza would be included to make the numbers work. Which I imagine is the sticking point. A pick back would be great. But even without the pick I would do it(tho I would angle for a 2).

Boozer's contract would be high. But it would come off the books in 2014, along with a few Raps contracts.

I am for this trade.

That Pasta eating fukk Bargs, needs to take his talents to the Chi.

Actually boozers contract doesn't come off the books til 2015.

Ugh, I thought 2014. Thanks @beaniemac for the correction. I would still do this trade to get rid of Bargs. At least Boozers final year would be a asset as a expiring. Not like FA's are clamouring to come to TO. We could use that contract to acquire a star..


I fukking hate being a Raps fan sometimes..

Doesn't look like too many teams want Bargs so if the Bulls want him, they can have him. Ship Kleiza or Sally Fields out along with him as well. I'm tired of those fukking Primo Pasta commercials they keep showing during game time brehs.

Its also good for the Raptors because Boozer has some resemblance of a post game in his arsenal. Bad part is his contract and he can end up being a piece of shyt in 1.5 years lol

If im Toronto I do the deal.

Bargnani isnt wanted in Toronto and has done nothing productive this season, Boozer's played like a borderline All-Star. You would be getting the much better player in this deal. Hate on Boozer all you want, but Bargnani has NEVER been on Boozer's level. Also if they could get rid of Fields as well that's an ever bigger plus

Boozer, Rudy Gay, DeRozan, Terrence Ross, Kyle Lowry, Jonas that's a pretty damn good team

With that lineup on paper (im not sure how far back Toronto is from the 8th spot and how healthy their team is right now) out in the East im sure they could play well enough to sneak into the playoffs at the end of the year and maybe win a series.

Besides with that talent who knows what they could do, cause the East isnt that strong anyway. Im not saying their gonna be threatening Miami or whatever but shyt bringing in Boozer would definitely upgrade them as a player out East.

Dont people look at the basketball aspects of trades anymore? Or is it all based on financial shyt. Toronto has been garbage since Bosh left, why not make this deal and become at least a solid semi-contending team. Give your fans something to be proud of at least

The Toronto Raptors were told last week that they can accept the Andrea Bargnani and John Lucas III trade for Carlos Boozer and Nate Robinson from the Chicago Bulls whenever they wanted it, according to league sources.

That deal could take the Bulls below the luxury-tax threshold.

The Bulls would like to avoid paying tax, especially if Derrick Rose is not able to play this season.

Im not a Boozer fan at all but hes is the better player in the deal and even though his contracts absurd the Raptors already have a sh!tload of money tied up to a few players so its not like Boozers gonna kill their flexiblity since they have none
