John Wall for James Harden 

Post#1 » by wubanger40 » Wed Jan 4, 2012 2:02 am

I would be trading john wall... I already have westbrook. All standard categories, H2H, plus team wins is a category.

who wins this trade? How would you improve this trade (just examples)

Thanks

I think Harden is the better fantasy player. Better shooting percentages, less TO's, more rebounds, plus he gets a good amount of points.

Right now, yes. But in a non-TO league, I still think Wall is going to better. Should score at least as much for the rest of the season, has more than twice the assists, blocks more shots and has more steals. Probably depends on what you need though.

I can see the reason why you think that a John Wall for Harden trade make sense. But still, I think that John Wall will be the better fantasy player than Harden when the season is over.

I'd only do the deal if you think your team can't wait for John Wall to pick up his game and might ultimately cost you a play-off spot. But if you can wait, I say hold on to John Wall. Honestly, I wouldn't trade for Harden right now because his value is pretty high right now.
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.

John Wall is considered a Buy Low player. Which means everyone thinks his performance can only go up from here. To be honest, I'd keep John Wall. His FG% is definitely hurting right now but it should get better throughout the season. And he'll definitely help you in the assists department since Westbrook seems to forget what an 8apg type of player is like. And finally, I usually try to have players on different teams to prevent overcrowding on the big game days like mon-wed-fri. Although having some same team players is fine, just don't overdo it. lol
