		<description>Even with the risk factors there, DW, SS, nor GG are going to make up for the difference between a combined Joe Johnson and Zach Randolph vs. Kevin Garnett.

West is a big injury risk himself since no one knows how many more games he&#039;ll be out before he actually starts playing again.  Even when he does, it&#039;ll probably be at least a few games before he starts putting up his usual numbers (which is the only scenario in this case in which you break even on the trade).

Swift and Green are still inconsistent at best.</description>

		<description>I agree with Patrick, your team does not seem deep enough to over come the loss of both those guys in a 2 for 1.</description>

		<description>My first indication was to say YES! go and pull the trigger immediately. It&#039;s not everyday you can trade for a first rounder. But, when I actually went and looked at the numbers (I do it because I care) they just don&#039;t add up. Both Johnson and Randolph score more than Garnett and Randolph hits just as many FTs. The only category where you&#039;d be better off is blocks. In a standard 8-cat league, it be possible to rationalize the trade, but with your extra scoring categories, it just doesn&#039;t make sense.</description>

		<description>Hey guys, i have a deal on the table I donâ€™t know if I should do:

I give up Joe Johnson and Zach Randolph for Kevin Garnett. Here is the rest of my roster without these guys:

Bibby
Tony Allen
Hedo
Lebron
Caron Butler
Iggy
Wilcox
Pachulia
Monta Ellis
Rashaul Butler

I will be either picking up David West, Stromile Swift, or Gerald Green after this trade. We also count FGM and FTM in this league, so scoring is very important.

please help
thanks!</description>
