    Tough call, if it was me i would not do it, but i could see why some might. Shaq's Blocks are hard to replace.

    What you got to contemplate is you are giving up one quality player for two pretty good players. IMO I would definetly consider it if your roster is lacking quality players. If your roster is well rounded with quality players then keep Shaq. If your roster has a weak link, then you should make this trade and drop the scrub. Also consider that two players can rack up more stats than one.

    Yes you do! especially in Roto leagues where SHaq FT percentage can kill you. I dont like the trade though. Not enough juice in it IMO. Amares numbers are much better than SHAQ right now. TRADE FOR HIM!

    do it, because sheed gives u three's and with coach brown retired they might give up on the the ten man rotation, which would make gasol possibly one of the top 15-20 fantasy players. plus, shaq is injury prone and kills your ft%.

    I wouldn't have done it because Shaq has been scoring and rebounding great lately. I have him a fantasy league and have gotten way better offers then that (For example: Tim Duncan and Baron Davis for Shaq and Tracy McGrady). I wouldn't do it if I were you.
