Hilarious was the word he used at any suggestion Toronto would do a deal like that. To me the full MLE is the key here. The only real change you are making is a Lowry for JRich swap (obvious improvement) and using the Full MLE to replace Powell (probably improvement).
Your big rotation is KP/Maxi/WCS (presumably) with DFS potentially getting minutes at the four also. The question to me would be are you using the MLE on a bigger/bulkier guy or more of a 4/3 or 3/4 like Batum?
I think I go with the 3/4 wing for the MLE and big with the BAE. Supposedly Jeremías Engelmann (the new head analytics voice in the room) is a big fan of Otto Porter Jr. (and THJ for that matter).
Raptors fans (key word) seem to really like Dwight Powell, he started at C for the CAN national team. And J-Rich is an expiring at around mid-level salary that could fit into a lot of different mid-season trades.
