I'm in a private head to head yahoo fantasy bball league (same stat categories and point system). What do you think about this trade?

Paul Pierce

for

Cutino Mobley
Juwan Howard
Jon Barry
Jerome Williams

Personally, I think this trade is uneven, and the manager could get more for Pierce. His reason for trading is because his bench is pitiful (we have a 5 player bench). Barry and Williams weren't even drafted in our league, they were picked up off the FA list the day before.

Some other managers are also disagreeing on the fairness of this deal, any thoughts? Thanks.

Very unfair, the team giving up Pierce is getting screwed.

Post each teams rosters as well, I'd like to see some more details.

That seems pretty uneven to me. Pierce established himself last year as one of the top scorers in the leauge...

Looks to me like the team with Pierce has the better team. It also looks like he's pretty strong at all the positions that he's getting for Pierce...

If Francis or Wallace was included in the deal then it would be alright. But as it stands currently, it's a no go. :)

Alright, that's what I figured. He can get more quality players for a guy like Pierce. And here I was questioning my nba knowledge when some managers thought it was a ok deal :)
