@Duck: Decent offer, especially since all three of your players will likely get good rest during the time of fantasy playoffs. But it’s really tough to essentially trade TD for Z-Bo. Duncan’s been a beast so far and you’ll miss his blocks.

I’d probably prefer Hedo, but his recent knee ailments are worrisome. While Smith is probably going to pick things up, he hasn’t really shown much promise lately.

Though it’s appealing, I’d lean toward turning it down.

Doc and anyone else reading, I need your help.

I got an offer of Zach Randolph, Rudy Gay, and Hedo Turkoglu/J.R. Smith (I get my choice)

for my

Tim Duncan, Vince Carter, and Ray Allen.

Any thoughts? Thanks.

@jwest: Reasonable concerns for both. Definitely try to shop KG, though you’re going to get little in return at this point. BD will be solid the rest of the way, but yes, he has glaring weaknesses.

Happy New Year to you too!

@jwest: I love the first one, am neutral on the second and am not so enthralled with the third.

Hey Doc what do you think of this trade:

I get:Steve Nash, Marc Gasol, and Louis Williams
For my: Baron Davis and Kevin Garnett

or I get:Russell Westbrook and David Lee
For my Baron Davis and KG

or lastly I get: Chauncey Billups, Bogut, and Granger(who’s been injured)
For my: KG and B-Diddy.

Thanks Doc…

@Nick: I agree with @Kevin, totally. Unless K-Mart gets dealt to another team, Udrih is good to sell high, not take on right now. Frye + Udrih is more appealing, but still not totally worth it.

If you could nab Frye and Ginobili, that might be something worth considering.

Keep Davis, everything bad about him (FG%) is up in December and shouldnt dip too much, it looks like he’s found his niche with the Clippers.
Besides Udrih will be completely useless soon as Kmart is back in a couple weeks
And also, Davis is a good source of steals

Doc,

One more trade offer:

Flynn + Udrih for Baron.

I would get the double package. I like Baron a lot (i’m steady in assists), I could use the more points, but it worries me that I won’t be getting that many more points while taking up 2 roster spots with Flynn + Udrih. Davis is solid (especially of late) in assists, and the points come inconsistently. One more thing — keep in mind I’m heavily lacking in steals.

Take it or leave it?

And a very happy new year, my new fantasy adviser.

p.s. What if I could work Frye + Udrih for Davis? I could use 3′s too.

other avaliable players on his roster: J Will, C. Lee, A. Miller, M. Ginobli , R. Hamilton, C. Brewer…

@nick: You’re right – that’s too much to give up.
