If you trade Ridnour for Hamilton you're trading AST + STL for PTS + FG%. Here's the thing who knows if Ridnour will be the starter when Flynn returns, and Richard Hamilton has been breaking down the last few years

Richard Hamilton Games Played:

2005-2006: 80
2006-2007: 75
2007-2008: 72
2008-2009: 67
2009-2010: 46

Assuming they're both healthy if Ridnour is coming off the bench I'd rather have Hamilton. If he's starting it's a wash.

So ask yourself this:

- Do you need more PTS?
- Can your team handle taking on an injury prone player like Hamilton (if you have a handful of other injury prone players on your team the answer is NO)?
