    Lebron James
    Emeka Okafor
    Caron Butler

    FOR

    Ilgauskis (spelling?)
    Ande Kirilenko
    Rip Hamilton

    What do you guys think? Tell me from the point of view of both sides.

    Depends on your roster and what your needs are...my instincts would be no, LBJ is one of the best players right now, fantasy and real life. Unless you're really behind in boards and blocks, then I'd say no...or ridiculous as it seems you could probably get more, considering LBJ's value is way high now and Okafor is doing pretty good as well.

    Yes its just that At the center position all i have is okafur and Laettner. I want to bolster up the position and figured maybe a sacrifice of LBJ would be ok since im also gettinf kirilenko.

    On the other hand, I might not need good centers because my PF's are Boozer and Amare Stoudamire, both stellar scorers and rebounders.

    ^^ I would not do the trade. I had Amare Boozer and garnett last year and didn't even need a center to own my league. haha

    Don't do the trade but I would pick up a center if I were you. Go after somebody like Lonnie Baxter, Chris Mihm or Primoz Brezec. They will be solid starters this year especially Brecez. He has already shown he can score 20 points and grab 10 rebounds 2 or 3 times this year. Other than that you team seems good with LBJ, Amare, and Boozer.

    Are you in a Yahoo league?

    If Amare isn't a FC already, he should be very soon.

    Other cheap centre options, besides those above, could be Brendan Haywood or Kelvin Cato. Not sure why you're holding onto Laettner, though.
