At this point the only PF the Raps should be looking to acquire is Ibaka. Just getting some slight upgrade is not worth trading anyone from the existing team. But that's where other teams have better things to offer than the Raptors do for a PF. The Nuggets and Kings always seem to be other linked teams for PFs, and they both have younger, cheaper and better assets to trade than the Raps. Ross is a nice piece to include because his contract is decent (and becomes even more valuable if he starts somewhere else), but the Raps don't have much else of true value to offer.

There was a slight window to get Milsap, but obviously that's gone now. And since trading Korver, the Hawks won 5 of 6 and are actually closing in on the Raps and the #2 seed. Basically get your voodoo dolls out and start hoping for Kyrie and LeBron injuries, or that Sullinger plays the best 3-4 months of his career. Doesn't seem likely the Raps will improve this team much if at all by the deadline.
