Fair value for Josh Smith?

I'm in a 9-cat 10-man H2H league, and I've been trying to get Smith for a while, but my buddy overvalues the hell out of him, and he has kind of a funky strategy going on for his team. Anyway, I wanted some outside perspective on what you guys think the deal would cost me, and ultimately if it's worth it. Here are the teams:

My team:
Guards:
-Parker
-Conley
-Jennings
-Rubio
-Rose

Forwards/Centers
-Durant
-Batum
-Randolph
-Barnes
-Ilyasova
-Millsap
-Sanders

His team:
Guards
-Dragic
-Reddick
-Mayo
-Thompson
-Jack
-J. Johnson

Forwards/ Centers
-Aldridge
-Smith
-DeRozan
-Drummond
-Monroe
-Vucevic

He asked for Tony Parker and Larry Sanders. I told him obviously that wasn't happening. I couldn't even come back with a counter from that. Any ideas?

With the rate that your buddy is asking for Smoove, I would say that don't get him.

Yeah, that's what it's starting to look like. I think J-Smooth is going to start playing better and I need help at REBs, but I'm not sure what a decent deal would be.

Your team's awesome and you can't afford to give up a high FG%, high-volume guard for a PF with a crappy FG% anyway. Smith is ranked like what, 60th in standard leagues, primarily cuz his percentages have been AIDS

Thanks for the advice. I'll look into Aldridge, or if that doesn't work either just move one. I appreciate the input.

If the GM overvalues him then move on.

Or maybe he overvalues somebody on your Roster.
