12 team/9 cat standard Yahoo! head-to-head league. Trying to sell high on Boozer, I got offered Paul+Ginobili for Boozer+Bogut. Hesitated and counter-offered with Boozer+Jackson for Paul+Ginobili. Tonight, I got scared that the trade might get canceled and was going to accept. Double checked the stats for 5 minutes before doing so. Meanwhile, in those 5 minutes and like 24 hours after the originial offer, the opposing manager rescinds the original offer and puts forward the trade in the title thread. I accept withing the first minute. I think I got a steal here. Thoughts?

Warren Carter? Vince Carter? Anthony Carter?
Rasual Butler? Caron Butler?

I'll assume Vince+Caron

Essentially it's Boozer for CP3, which is vetoable imo because you win by so far.

If its Caron, that's vetoable. If it's Rasual, then that's probably fair.

I don't know about that.

When you click on average stats you'll see that Boozer is at 11 and Carter is at 71. Meanwhile, Paul is at 1 and Butler is at 124. Carter is better than Butler and Paul is better than Boozer. It evens out.

As far as injury concerns go, Paul is the one who's injured right now. Carter has actually played in 76 and 80 games the last 2 seasons as opposed to Butlers 58 and 67, so I'm the one taking the risk here. And with the exception of last season, Boozer has been every bit as healthy as Paul over the last 3 years.
