Bargnani for Hump?

So apparently Italians and Canadians don't mesh. After an injury riddled season that saw Bargnani make some interesting comments about his team, he might have just worn out his welcome in the land up north. His stock is way down and you know Toronto will be listening to trade offers. This creates the perfect scenario for the Nets to get that elusive power forward they've needed all season. Hump has an expiring contract worth 12M next season. Bargnani is set to make 10M for the next 2 years. This works for both sides because it clears cap for the crucial offseason next year, which includes major free agents. For the Raptors who are looking to find a Batman to their multiple robins (DeRozan & Gay), 12M off the books next year couldn't sound better. The Nets get a player who averaged 21.5 ppg just 2 seasons ago. Bargnani is smack dab in the middle of his prime at the age of 27 and could add some much needed offense a team who's main forte was supposed to be offense. Tell me what you think in the comments!
