    I've been offered:

    Peja Stojakovic
    Andrei Kirilenko

    for

    Dirk Nowitzki
    Ricky Davis

    I don't know if I should, because both Nowitzki and Davis have been pretty good for me. Comments/Opinions are welcome.

    dirk is awesome, i love him and probably wouldn't trade him for anybody, in my mind he's number one because he does it all. BUT this trade offer seems to good to pass up, peja is off to a slow start but is picking it up and ak47 is great for fantasy leagues, ricky davis is playing pretty well, but is nowhere close to ak47 or peja. i would do the trade.

    I wouldn't do it because Dirk puts up so many great numbers in a lot of categories. Peja hasen't been playing great this year so I wouldn't do it.

    Wow, this is actually a pretty hard decision. It depends what you need, blocks? If so i'd do it, because you can probably count on Peja picking up his scoring and playing better than he is right now. Davis can be good, but its yet to be seen if he can stay consistent. I agree dirk is great, and its true, i'm not sure if you would want to trade him, but kirilenko is pretty damn good. Hes probably good for 17 points, 2 blocks, 2 steals, 4 assists, 6 rebounds, i mean thats filling it out. I'm sorry i'm not sure, if you dont do it, you'll probably be fine, and if you do, you'll probably be fine, so who knows.

    I would do it unless you don't have another center available, because Kirilenko and Peja are both top 20 players, and while Dirk is definitely top 5, Davis isn't worth that much. Even if Peja doesn't play up to last year's standards, it's a fair trade (Kirilenko & Peja will beat out Nowitzki alone stat-wise although taking up two positions), while if Peja does well, you'll win out.

    Do not trade Dirk. I repeat, Do not trade Dirk Nowitzki. He is a top 5 fantasy player. Unless you are trading for Lebron James (even then questionable) or Kevin Garnett, don't trade Dirk.
