Over there last 5 games:

Thompson:
6.2 ppg
5.8 rpg
1.4 apg
1.0 bpg
0.4 spg
2.4 tov
40% fg%

Chandler:
8.4 ppg
8.2 rpg
0.4 apg
1.8 bpg
0.2 spg
2.2 tov
49% fg%

Chandler might not be playing at the level he was last year but he's still a great boost for your FG% and rebounds, he's also been a pretty decent shot blocker this season... I'd keep him rather than pick up Thompson at this point in time... If JT moves into the starting lineup and starts to see more minutes then you might want to consider dropping Chandler but otherwise just ride him out...

I wouldn't touch Chandler. He should pick it up for a series of double-doubles in January and since he's a vet, odds are that he will produce more consistently then Thompson would.

I have Chandler on my team, it's frustrating because I could really use those extra boards. Hopefully he picks it up soon

It's worth a try... I'm not saying the other manager is going to accept, but you can at least try.

The only thing that concerns me with Peja is his health, what the hell is with all these games he's missing due to his back? Are you in need of threes?

You can't rely predict injuries. Peja can light it up from downtown and Chandler can remain at a scrub level for the rest of the season.. I'd rather have Peja than Chandlet at the moment.

Peja is having a really weak season and only contributes in one category (3 pointers, obviously). You can probably pick up someone comparable to him off the free agent list. Delonte West for example.

If it wasn't for the name value Peja wouldn't be owned in nearly as many leagues as he is.

It's possible that he returns to previous form, but even if you look at last seasons numbers they're not that much better than this season.
I'd always thought of propane as a dignified lady. But she can also be a dirty girl.

Yeah, this is definitely not his best season of his career thus far, but I still think he's way better for a fantasy team than Chandler is.
