    Right now I have the offer of Ron Artest of Tyson Chandler.

    My team is extremely weak at the center position. I'm pretty stacked at 2's and 3's.

    Right now Ron Artest has great trade value and I think I can get Tyson Chandler at a bargain. Any word on when he'll be back? I can't seem to find an estimated date.

    Tyson's numbers at the beginning of the season were great.

    I doubt he would trade Yao, but Artest holds a lot of fantasy value because he does everything and plays every game. I am very "iffy" about Chandler and his health/work ethic.

    If you want to attack Yao, you need someone else with Artest, come hard.

    Yup. Don't trade Artest for Tyson. Try offering Artest for Yao if you really need a Center but I doubt that he'll accept it. But it's worth a try.

    I would accept Yao for Artest in a heartbeat. Artest's steals are way too valuable in fantasy bball. Meanwhile Yao hasn't really blown up, and become the monster that people anticipate him becoming. Sure, there are flashes of such signs, but Artest is for-sure much more valuable than Chandler, and perhaps, Slightly better than Yao, as for right now.

    Yao has had the best 2 weeks of his NBA career, his value right now could not be any higher. Artest like I said holds amazing value because he does everything across the board, he is one guy that I would not trade.

    I would post your team bro so we can inspect.

    Hold on to Artest, KJ pretty much said it all. Artest is a player that every person would love to have on his fantasy team. He keeps you contending in so many different category's. He has stepped up his offense a bit this year, and as you know, is a beast on the defensive side. Try looking to trade someone else, and yes, post your team.

    We only have 6 teams, so the teams are pretty stacked.

    PG Billups, Chauncey
    PG Bibby, Mike
    PG Arroyo, Carlos
    ---------------------
    SG Richardson, Jason
    SG Artest, Ron
    SG Carter, Vince
    --------------------
    SF Maggette, Corey
    SF Garnett, Kevin
    SF Van Horn, Keith
    --------------------
    PF Walker, Antoine
    PF Abdur-Rahim, Shareef
    PF Brand, Elton
    --------------------
    C Magloire, Jamaal
    C Ostertag, Greg
    C Blount, Mark

    Bench: Houston, Allan
    Bench: Robinson, Clifford
    Bench: Nesterovic, Rasho
    IL: Arenas, Gilbert IL

    So you can see my centers are pretty poor. I have Allan Houston on the bench, because I can't really justify benching any of my other 2's or 3's.

    btw, here's another deal that was proposed:

    Jermaine O'Neal
    Zack Randolph

    Kevin Garnett
    Ron Artest

    Truthfully, I would leave it alone.

    The center position is dead, you actually have 2 top 10 centers. Aside of Shaq and Yao, it's very weak out there.

    You are fine, not sure what you are expecting to get.

    Don't trade KG, ever.

    After seeing your lineup, it seems that you're lineup is ok. You don't have to release Artest for Yao. I thought you badly needed a Center. hehehe

    Jamal is doing ok. Ostertag has some fantasy values together with Rasho with their offensive rebounds.

    You don't need to get another Center for the rebounds. You already have Brand, KG and some others.

    I wouldn't trade KG for ANYONE.
