But i noticed that Howard was ranked high as well so i'm wondering if its the free throws.
Should I accept this trade. Or should I offer Cousins instead. I'm thinking of not accepting it but i'm not sure if thats the right move. Also what can I trade Dirk for realistically he is sucking pretty bad this year?
My team is
John Wall
James Harden
Kobe Bryant
Andre Miller
Welsey Matthews
Paul George
Tayshaun Prince
Dirk Nowitzski
Chris Bosh
DeMarcus Cousins
Marc Gasol
Drew Gooden |
It depends on the type of league.
@FlyLikeaJet, you could probably use another good big but other than that, it's a pretty good team. |
Thanks man, any recomendations of a good one that can be found on the waiver wire _________________

I wouldn't say you're in that big of a need for one but if someone offered you a trade with you getting a big in return, I'd probably accept it. _________________ Yo, is that time machine done yet? |

Its a standard 12 team league. There are 9 categories. Shooting % Free throw % total pts, most 3 pt shots, Steals, blocks, Rebounds, assist and turnovers (I always lose this one). If you win 6 out of 9 for the your record is 6-3. |

Well, you'll lose scoring by losing Blake but Gasol helps your free throw percentage and you'll get more blocks with Gasol. Blake's a better rebounder but everything else is sort of a wash, I suppose. That's a tough one, I might take it, I might not, it depends on my mood that day! I'd probably take it. _________________ Yo, is that time machine done yet? |

Boozer for Al Jefferson a good trade?
Luol Deng is coming back(on my team) but All Jefferson is just coming off an injury so I'm not sure. _________________

No. Al Jefferson does everything better than Boozer. Unless you're getting Jefferson, in which case, pull the trigger. _________________ Yo, is that time machine done yet? |

I just traded Paul Pierce for Danny Granger. Pierce has been great, but that's been with Rondo being hurt.
Now that he's back, I feel that Pierce won't be able to keep it up. That, and the fact that Danny takes 15-20 shots every night while still contributing in boards (somewhat) 3pts and steals.
Would you believe that my reasoning would justify me making that trade? _________________

Unfortunately for you, I'm a Celtics fan so...
Nah, it's not a bad trade, I guess. I dont think Pierce was playing well because Rondo was out, I think he finally managed to get in shape but Pierce has these hot streaks now. I don't know, I probably wouldn't have made the trade, I think Pierce is a more efficient fantasy player but it's not a trade I'd lose sleep over. Granger is likely to give you a higher scoring output than Pierce but probably on a lower percentage. It's just tough with the Celtics, you never know how a game is going to go. I don't think the trade hurts you but I'm not sure it helps you all that much either. This post probably didn't help at all but it's 6am, give me a break! _________________ Yo, is that time machine done yet? |

I pulled the trigger and acquired Jefferson.

Yeah. Is there on news on other guys like Andrea Bargnani, Eric Gordon, Zach Randolph, etc? Bargnani is on my roster and the other two are FA. _________________

Do I reject this or open it on all the computers in my house and hit reject on each one?

I would have done it for Martin in a heart beat.

AI. I don't know Deng's stats off the top of my head but I know AI gives you everything consistently.

I do not understand why you are not enthusiastically accepting this trade. _________________ Yo, is that time machine done yet? |
