    I have logjam at the forward spot (Lebron, Korver, Brand, Webber, Gasol, Hill) and so I was wondering if I should do this trade. I'm weak at both guard spots so any help and advice would be appreciated.

    Yes, do it. I would even do AK and Pierce straight up. I have both on my fantasy team, so I keep a close focus both of them. With AK your uncertain what youre going to get from him. Occasionally he'll break out for blocks, and consistently give you 1-3 BPG, but he's up and down with his FG%. Most nights this years hes been doing poor, and he gets alot of turnovers. You're also uncertain with his PPG.

    With Pierce, you know what you're getting every night; atleast 20+ points, 5+ boards, some dimes, lots of FTA's with high FT%.

    BTW how many people in your league? Thats a lot of talent at the forward posistion.

    Yeah I would do the trade as well. I'm not too high on Jameer though, but he is getting playing time as of late and producing.

    I agree with PAP though, I would probably do it straight up too..

    Whoa your stacked at the Forward postion. Yes, trade, I would try to trade for Gilbert Arenas or Allen Iverson or even Steve Nash would be a good pickup. If I were you I would try to trade Webber and Korver and try to get a Guard that isn't bad but some one would be willing to trade them for Webber and Korver.

    Alright thanks for the advice.

    BTW the league is pretty small, just me and a couple buddies so thats 8 of us, with teams of 20 players (I find drafting is the best part lol). I drafted Lebron, Kirilenko and Brand early and then the rest I got through trades.
