Bump from a long time ago.
Over the last 4 years, Amir has really developed, and his adjusted +/- Numbers are pretty stellar. (See

With us having cap space, we could try to convince the Raptors to deal with us based around taking on Amir's contract and the #40 for our 1st and Bonner/S&T Neal(If they're interested in shooting). He has issues with foul trouble, but that's not a big deal if he's in a 4 big rotation.(Assuming Tiago is kept). Trading for a player like this would also mean we can use the MLE(though what the best option is depends on How much Manu and Tiago sign for, if we have 12m left over(Highly unlikely) It's probably better to go after Millsap/West/Free Agent X)
