Sorry, but I don't like it for your team.

First off, CP3 doesn't hold THAT much high of a value on your league since you guys don't have TO on your category.

Second, J-Smith and Kidd are top 15-30 fantasy players. You gave up guys who can single handedly carry your team's scoring (durant), blocks and FG% (J-smith) and Assists (kidd).
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

Thanks man - though you got it wrong: i will be getting durant, kidd, and smith, not the other way around. So I should go and get them?

I would do the deal as Durant is still Durant, and Smith has quickly become a 1st round talent. So your getting two top of the line elite studs for pretty much 1 in the deal. While not losing much depth in the first place.

It's a pretty good trade!

Do it, you're essentially trading 3 injury prone players for 3 healthier players.
