    I'm being offered Allen Iverson for Steve Nash. Nash is no doubt doing better right now, but do you think he's gonna cool down? Or is AI gonna pick up his game?

    This is tough, but I wouldn't do it. Nash's efficiency rating is 23.26 while Iverson's is a pathetic 18.82 - that says it all.

    LOL all of oyu wont be sayin that when they both are almost halfway into the season.

    Nash wont keep that statline the whole year and neither will Iverson. Newayz...Iverson has been averaging about 30 points for me on a bad night in FP. On his good nights when I had him..he once got me about 50 I think.

    But the point is....Iverson will go up...Nash will not. Do whatever though...

    I got offered Nash for Bryant on the other hand...but I dont know bout that trade either.

    Keep Nash. I don't even know why you would consider this. Nash gives you Points, Assists, 3 Pointers, and doesn't turn the ball over that much.

    Allen Iverson is Allen Iverson. 25+ Points, misses games, 7 Assists, 2 Steals 4+ TO's, FT's. Good statline but the TO's killed, but Nash's line is better as a fantasy player.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">But the point is....Iverson will go up...Nash will not. Do whatever though...</div>

    How do you figure? Nash has only been with the team for less than 2 months, and he's not gonna keep this up/go up? He's only going to get better this year if anything with the weapons he has on this team. Nash isn't playing over his head, it's just reality and dream job for anyplayer like Nash; playing with 4 players who run the court non stop.

    What did I say.....Told all u guys that Iverson would be better than Nash as they got farther in the season. Now I think Staying Occupied should do that trade...if you dont think so now...your nuts because Nash hasnt been doing great in the past few games. [​IMG]

    Ive been getting over 46 points some days with Iverson on my team. When Iverson had them back to back 50pt. games...I earned like 68 points for one and 60 for another. And when he played the Bucks both times...I earned around 50 FPs. [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Don't flatter yourself. AI's Efficientcy is only .2 higher than Nash's. Right now, I would take AI over Nash for my fantasy team, but in the long run, I'll stick with Nash. He's playing 7 less minutes per game than AI, so I can see him keeping this up. AI can keep this up, but my personal take is that Nash will be better for fantasy owners in the long run.

    imo, if you can handle quite a bit/lot more to's and a lower fg%, you should take iverson.. i guess if you don't have any other source for assists besides nash, you shouldn't take iverson too, but yah.. i like iverson more than nash.. but in my league i'd have to go with nash because kobe & co. are killing me in to's and fg%..
