Just at face value, I'd do it. But if you had good producers in the categories the new guys are good at, you might have to study the trade more. But just production-wise per se, you win that trade.

Nash and Butler are the two best players in the deal, and you're getting them both. Deng's arguably the fourth best player in the deal. Seems like you definitely get the best of it.

Dude, why bother making this post?

D. West is competing time with Luke Ridnour and Earl Watson. Telfair is competing time with Foye, McCants, and Jaric. Mo Williams is getting good production but not as good as Nash and Haywood isn't a fantasy value in the least bit.

I am curious to know how you are in second with those four players, unless that guy is in first and everyone else in the league doesn't know what they are doing. So you either are making this up to get attention or you just got stuck with people who have no idea what they are doing. Personally I would veto this trade if it did happen.

and this league has 20 teams. so my roster won't look as good compared to a 12 team roster.

Do that trade and hope that the commisioner doesn't void because it is so one sided in your favor.

Do that trade. Do it now. Pray they don't cancel it. If I were in that league and not involved in the trade I would try to.

But, be wary of Dwight Howard. He singlehandedly rapes you in FG% and Turnovers (if you're playing with these cats).

I'd look to trade Deng for a guy like Sam Dalembert. He does a lot of the things Howard does... admittedly less so... but doesn't drop you in any categories.

He will cost you much less.
