Deng for Peja?

I just got this one offered to me (Deng for Peja) in a H2H league wich I lead right now.
Here's my team:

So, I really need steals and Deng could help me in that. I could lose some 3pters and still have a good shooting team, but isn't Deng too much injury prone (atm)? Besides that, near the regular season end some teams who are headed nowhere like to rest players, and I'm afraid Deng might rest his back while Peja keeps getting big minutes to help NO get a top spot in the WC.

Would you accept this trade if you were me?

You would be crazy to want Deng instead of Peja.

Peja right now is the best 3PT shooter in the league and Deng at best is a guy that only contributes points.

I've got Deng, and I'd gladly accept Peja for him. It's a nobrainer

I wouldn't accept Deng for Peja, but to say it's not even close...

He could get a rest later on and he plays for the chicago 'we have like ten starters' bulls, but he does contribute on many levels.

yep, I declined the offer, but I don't get why people act like Peja is a 3254234x better fantasy player. Deng gets more rebounds and steals, when healthy he's pretty valuable with his all around stats in a H2H league, and since I really need steals and already have a good 3pt shooting team even without Peja I had to really give a thought on it.
